00:00England's Euro 2024 hero Oli Watkins was playing non-league football less than 10 years ago,
00:09with his former side Western Supermare paying tribute to their former player following his
00:14stunning winner against Netherlands.
00:17The Aston Villa star came off the bench to score in the 90th minute of Wednesday's semi-final,
00:22sending the Three Lions into the European Championship final, where they'll meet Spain
00:27on Sunday evening.
00:28You see a lot of him. You saw a lot of his fantastic season last year as well. It all
00:34sort of came together and what a moment for him as well and how important it could prove
00:38to be for England.
00:39Oh, it's a massive moment and Oli Watkins stepping up. He's been waiting for that all
00:43his life to get that opportunity for England. Obviously, with Harry Kane being in a team,
00:47such a world-class striker, opportunity is going to be quite rare, but putting it right
00:52in the side netting, he couldn't have got any closer to that post really if he tried.
00:55So an incredible moment and one that we'll look back on for a long time, I'm sure.
