euro 2024 i cried after sakas penalty against switzerland lineker

Former England striker, Gary Lineker, has admitted he became emotional after Bukayo Saka took a penalty during the shoot-out win over Switzerland at Euro 2024.

Saka had already equalised during the 90 minutes, with the game eventually decided via penalties.

According to Lineker, the moment reminded him of watching Stuart Pearce enjoy a similar moment of redemption.

Lineker and Pearce were teammates during the 1990 World Cup when the left-back saw a spot-kick saved in a semi-final defeat to West Germany.

Pearce, however, converted a kick during a quarter-final shoot-out win against Spain at Euro 96.
