00:08Ollie Watkins has trained like that every day and he's been ready for his moment no
00:35matter how frustrated he might have been at not playing. He's been ready.
00:40It took to a special moment for Ollie to do that and we talk a lot about being together
00:54as a team at all 26 players being ready for their opportunity. You never know when it's
00:58going to come whether it's a semi-final or final. Five minutes, one minute, be ready to
01:02take your chance and Ollie's done that today so I couldn't be prouder of him.
01:05I never thought I'd be playing in the Euros for England. Obviously you can dream but I'm a
01:23realist. I just take day by day, one step at a time and I've worked hard to get to this point
01:28and I'm going to enjoy every moment. It was unbelievable honestly. I couldn't believe it.
01:51It looked such a tight angle and for him to score from there is unbelievable.
01:58Lots of words really. I was just trying to describe it to Andy there. When you score
02:18there's emotions that come through your body but this is just a different feeling. It was

02:30pitch at the end because I just wanted to soak it all in because it doesn't happen often obviously.
