Ross Kemp led celebrity celebrations over England's 2-1 victory against the Netherlands in a nail-biting semi-final which saw a last gasp goal from substitute Ollie Watkins secure the side's place in Sunday's Euro 2024 final against Spain.
Three years on from losing the continental showpiece to Italy on penalties, Gareth Southgate's Euro 2020 runners-up earned another shot at glory in Berlin this weekend.
Former EastEnders star Kemp, who played Grant Mitchell in the soap and has become well known for his enthusiastic celebrations of England's sporting successes, shared his joy in two videos on X.
In the first, in his England shirt, the 59-year-old actor said to the camera: "Ollie Watkins! You did it! We knew those changes would work. Gareth Southgate - genius! Genius!
"Ollie Watkins, we love you! We love you! We love you! We are in the final!"
In a second video post he added: "We can go all the way. We can beat Spain. We can beat any team on the planet. When we play together.... you England, are possibly the best team in the world."
TV presenter Piers Morgan wrote: "Brilliant win. Brilliant goal. Brilliant performance. Brilliant management. Congrats to England, and especially Ollie Watkins & Gareth Southgate. One game from immortality, lads - go bring it home."
In a second post which included an image of the England manager, he added: "Chuffed for Southgate.
"We've all doubted him during this tournament, but he's got us to another final, and I think we're going to win on Sunday."
