The Queen has shared her personal message of support and congratulations to England's soccer team ahead of its Euro 2020 final against Italy.

Her Majesty sent her best wishes as the Three Lions gear up to take on Italy, who have won the championship once back in 1968.

England reached its first men's major tournament final in 55 years after beating Denmark 2-1 in a gripping encounter on Wednesday at Wembley Stadium.

On Saturday, July 10, the monarch shared a personal message to team manager Gareth Southgate, who helped lead England to their first tournament final since 1966, when they won the World Cup.

Referencing the big win, Her Majesty wrote: "55 years ago I was fortunate to present the World Cup to Bobby Moore and saw what it meant to the players, management and support staff to reach and win the final of a major international football tournament.

"I want to send my congratulations and that of my family to you all on reaching the final of the European Championships, and send my good wishes for tomorrow with the hope that history will record not only your success but also the spirit, commitment and pride with which you have conducted yourselves."

Later today, England will play Italy at home as both teams will kick-off for the trophy at London's Wembley Stadium.

Prince William, who is President of the Football Association, shared his own message to England's team ahead of the final.

Sharing a video on social media, the Duke of Cambridge said: "Gareth, Harry, and to every member of the England team on or off the pitch - just want to wish you the very best of luck for tonight.

"What a team performance it's been, every member of the squad has played their part, and all the backroom team as well have been truly essential and I can't really believe this is happening.

"So exciting. Just want to wish you the best of luck. You bring out the very best of England, and we are all behind you. The whole country is behind you. So, bring it home."

And when the team advanced to the final after beating Denmark on Wednesday, he wrote: "What a game, what a result! A huge team effort @England. The whole country will be behind you on Sunday."

He also included the hashtag #ItsComingHome, referencing the song "Three Lions" released in 1996 to mark the England soccer team hosting that year's European Championships.

Following the game, William and Kate's Twitter account posted a sweet snap of the trio smiling and clapping in the stands.

"Incredible performance @England!" they wrote alongside the snap.
