The English side was almost through after 90 minutes, but a late header by Yerry Mina sent the game to extra time.

England's World Cup dreams are still alive after destroying Colombia's hopes in a nerve-wrecking penalty shootout. The Three Lions defeated Los Cafeteros after 120 excruciating minutes, and that win earned them a place in the national team's history.

The English side had been involved in three penalty shootouts in World Cup history, losing every single one of them against Germany(1990), Argentina(1998) and Portugal(2006). But that's all in the past, as a save by Jordan Pickford made way for their first win of the sort in a major tournament since 1996.

It will also be a day to remember for Jordan Pickford, as he broke a 20-year-hoodoo for English goalkeepers with his key penalty save today.

England will now face Sweden in the FIFA World Cup Quarter finals.
