Fair play to the Spanish press for finding another element of a Chloe Kelly penalty that some may find “unnecessary”. And no, it was not spinning the ball back onto the spot, or the little stamp either side of the circle, or the raising of the left leg before skipping into the run-up, all parts of Kelly’s routine which are, to her, completely necessary.
It was instead Kelly’s little side-eye to Spain goalkeeper Cata Coll, after thumping her penalty into the net to win England the Euros, that caught some attention. Kelly’s focus was on running towards the England fans after producing the winning moment in a second consecutive Euros final, and there was only a fleeting glance in Coll’s direction.
