England are into the quarter-finals of the World Cup thanks to a Harry Kane spot-kick and nerves of steel from the penalty takers in the eventual shootout.

It was a stern test for Gareth's Southgate men, but one that they came through.

Colombia's rough and ready tactics presented an entirely different challenge to this England team, but after the victory you'd imagine confidence within the England camp will be sky high.

In the second half, England were awarded a spot kick after Carlos Sanchez fouled the England captain during a free-kick.

A few of the players were seen to scuff the penalty spot in a bid to ruffle Kane, but it was to no prevail.

Here's the best memes and reactions to how the penalty went down.
