(Reuters) - England ended a 55-year wait to reach a major final after they overcame Denmark at Euro 2020 and the result dominated the front and back pages of the country's newspapers on Thursday with most going on a similar theme to Daily Mirror's splash: "Finally".

England beat the Danes 2-1 in extra time to reach a first final since they won the World Cup in 1966, prompting the Daily Star to ask on its front page: "Is this the greatest dream ever?", while the Independent led with, "The history-makers".
