You saw all the boys stepping up, plus [Jordan] Pickford and I\u2019m really proud of them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In place of Kane, Cole Palmer, Jude Bellingham, Bukayo Saka, Toney and Trent Alexander-Arnold all stepped up to take a penalty for their country. Each England star found the back of the net, while Pickford denied Manuel Akanji\u2019s opening effort for Switzerland.<\/p>\n<p>England\u2019s success means they will face the Netherlands in the semi-finals of\u00a0Euro 2024\u00a0on Wednesday 10 July.
