However, in all the drama of the occasion, the goalkeeping hero admitted she actually missed the moment Kelly scored the winning penalty.Instead, the 24-year-old was trying to discover if the Arsenal star would win them the shootout if she scored.Speaking to ITV, she said: “To be honest I don’t really know what was going on.BEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UK“I turned around to the fans to ask if Chloe scores do we win and they just yelled at me.“So I don’t know what the answer to that was and as soon as I saw her run off I knew that we had won.” Her shootout heroics were backed up by a “cheat sheet” sticker she kept in her undershirt sleeve during the shootout.Hampton added to the broadcaster: “I don’t think it’s going to sink in for a while what we’ve just achieved. We’re the team who never gives up and we got the reward for that today…“It’s an amazing moment and I don’t think I’m going to come to terms with it for a while…“[The best day of my life] It’s up there, that’s for sure. There’s a lot of things I had to deal with before the tournament and a lot of the things the team helped get me through.“Some really horrible moments. To be standing here right now as back-to-back Euros winner is incredible moment.”Hampton was named as the Player of the Match for the final, with Uefa‘s technical team giving particular praise for her passing and brace of saves in the shootout.This tournament has seen the England No1 defy any expectations of how she might have done.She was thrust into the spotlight by the sudden retirement of Mary Earps before the tournament, while she also defied medical advice and overcame all of the odds to become a national hero.The Birmingham-born ace was born with a condition called strabismus – which effectively means her eyes are misaligned with one turned in an opposite direction to the other.A trio of surgeries by the time she was three failed to solve the issue but there was no stopping our super stopper as she refused to let the condition stop her from joining Stoke City’s centre of excellence.But there was another shock in store for her when a check-up at the doctor’s uncovered another issue when she was aged 11.Hampton was told that she had a depth perception problem, which means she has difficulties with judging distances and spatial relationships.Medics told her becoming a pro footballer – never mind a GOALKEEPER – was out of the question as they urged her to consider something different.But nothing could stop Hampton from achieving her dream, and tonight was exactly what dreams are made.England are queens of EuropeEngland legend Lucy Bronze reveals she played whole tournament with a broken legPlayer ratings – see how the Lionesses rated against SpainEngland’s finest in wild celebrations on the pitchChloe Kelly steals the show after scoring winning goal in TWO Euros finalsEagle-eyed fans stunned at where England keeper hid her penalty ‘cheat sheet’Joyous Princess Charlotte celebrates with dad William after watching from the stands
