Skipper Harry Kane bundled home the rebound after his weak extra-time penalty had been saved.
But England held out for a 2-1 victory, much to the delight of jubilant supporters, including the Duke of Cambridge, David Beckham and Boris Johnson at Wembley.
Sheffield’s party spilled onto city centre streets from pubs and bars after the final whistle with crowds heading for Barker’s Pool and the fountains where jubilant fans sang and danced together.

England fans outnumbered their Danish counterparts by six-to-one inside Wembley due to coronavirus-related travel restrictions.
