England's Chloe Kelly does her best Brandi Chastain impression as she nets game-winner in Euro final
England won the match 2-1 over Germany
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Chloe Kelly did her best Brandi Chastain impression on Sunday after she scored the go-ahead goal in extra time to lift England to a UEFA European Championship over Germany 2-1.
England’s Lauren Hemp sent a corner kick into heavy traffic in front of the net. Kelly got control of it and on her first touch missed getting it past German goalkeeper Merle Frohms. But Frohms was unable to corral the ball and Kelly got another kick in and the ball past the goalie.
Britain had to wait a moment for VAR to confirm the goal.

Once it was confirmed that Kelly put the Lionesses up 2-1 in the Euro final, she took off her shirt, exposing her sports bra, in a moment comparable to Chastain’s celebration when she gave the U.S. a victory over China in the 1999 Women’s World Cup.
Kelly celebrated with her teammates and England held on for the victory.
