As England's footballers embarked on their journey to the UEFA Europa League final, Charles III, a member of the British royal family, added a royal touch to their moment of glory through an emotional congratulatory message. However, he didn't forget to mention those tense and exciting extra time moments, even suggesting that these extra time matches could pose a threat to the nation's health.
In his congratulatory letter, Charles III said fondly: "My wife and I, as well as our entire family, heartily congratulate you on your splendid achievement of reaching the final of the European Cup. May you win at the last hurdle, or in the twelve-yard battle, to calm the nervous heartbeats and blood pressure of the nation. Good luck to you, England!"
England's path to the tournament was a treacherous one, as they drew 1-1 with Slovakia in the round of 16 with a stoppage time equalizer and won 2-1 in extra time. In the last eight, despite going behind at one stage, they drew with Switzerland through tenacity to advance on penalties. And in extra time in the semi-finals, England again showed resilience to beat the Netherlands 2-1, making it three games in a row that left countless England fans holding their breath. Therefore, Charles III is calling on England at this time to settle the battle quickly in the final and bring a resounding victory to the nation's fans.
