A step-by-step breakdown of Alessia Russo’s audacious backheel for England in the WEURO2022 by FloydTweet: ⚽ The pass from Walsh 🏃♀️ The run by Kirby 🎯 The shot from Russo 🤯 The backheel that shocked Europe
didn’t just cause astonished looks between those in the stadium, it caught the attention of the nation and the world.England had their backs against the wall for the first 20 minutes
England had to ride through a storm seconds later, too, when Stina Blackstenius had a shot that goalkeeper Mary Earps just managed to push over the crossbar. The resulting corner led to a tame Swedish effort that Earps could sweep up and use to eat the clock. It was a moment that audibly eased the crowd and allowed England a moment to breathe.
Williamson to Fran Kirby, Kirby to Hemp, Hemp to Kirby and back again. There was movement, patterns, precision. England were in their element. It went back and forth — not rushed, just relaxed. After several more passes, the ball made its way to Keira Walsh, England’s puppet master.Walsh was on the edge of the box, looking for options, scanning the field. Kirby took her chance and drifted in behind the Swedish defence, waiting for the perfect Walsh pass that dutifully arrived.
Seger used her experience to pin Russo away from goal, shuffling her away and attempting to block her from turning. But, without even looking, Russo sensed an opportunity. It was a WWE finishing move, the Big Show jumping off the rope and bringing down the clothesline. It was a three-pointer from Steph Curry from the corner. It was done, it was finished. Russo had disrespected the world’s best and it was unforgettable.
