The holders, who recovered from two goals down to beat Sweden on penalties in the quarter-finals, seemed to have run out of luck against Italy in Geneva.
Barbara Bonansea finished from close range after 33 minutes and the resolute Italians were good value for their lead, as they kept the Lionesses at arm’s length for much of the second half.
But Sarina Wiegman’s substitutions paid off yet again, with Michelle Agyemang remaining composed to force the ball home in the sixth minute of added time, after Italy goalkeeper Laura Giuliani spilled Lauren Hemp’s cross.
ENGLAND ARE LEVEL IN THE 96TH MINUTE!
