The nation watched on from behind the sofa, but Kelly showed supreme confidence to smash home from 12 yards and earn England a second Euros title.
And the Lionesses made sure to celebrate their victory in style after doing the nation proud and making history as the first England side to ever win a major tournament on foreign soil.
After an emotional trophy lift and plenty of on-pitch celebrations, the England team kept the party going as they returned to their team hotel for a massive bash.
Friends, family, staff and loved ones all awaited the Lionesses as they flooded through the doors wearing their “CHAMPIONS 25” shirts.
Drinks were flowing as everyone made sure that the victory was a night to remember.
Even boss Sarina Wiegman was enjoying some drinks, but made sure to keep things professional.
Speaking after the game, she joked: “I’ll do some more dancing.
“I’ll have a drink but I don’t think I’ll drink as much as the players will do.”

Players got hold of the mic to belt out some late night karaoke as celebrations went on UNTIL 4AM.
While captain Leah Williamson and boss Wiegman even cut a custom-made football cake that had been brought in for the team to celebrate.
The late night partying was a continuation of what had taken place inside the stadium after full-time.
The team had wasted no time getting the party started, with beers and pizza coming out on to the pitch in the aftermath of the trophy lift.
While family and friends watched on in tears as the girls proudly lifted the European Championship trophy for a second time.
Penalty hero Kelly even joked to the cameras: “The first time was so nice we had to do it twice”.
Choruses of Neil Diamond’s ‘Sweet Caroline’ and ‘Dancing on My Own’ by Robyn were belted out by the players on the pitch, with the crowd in Basel signing every word right back at their heroes.
The players soon returned to the playing surface with their winners medals draped around their necks to celebrate even more with their families and loved ones.
Some of the Lionesses even jumped into the stands to share emotional hugs and words with their family.

Lauren James posted a photo with her family in the crowd, including Chelsea star brother Reece James, who had made the journey out to Switzerland to watch his sister play.
Lucy Bronze shared snaps alongside her nephew, Freddie, and niece, Alzira, soaking it all in while laying in the golden confetti on the pitch.
And Beth Mead posed for a picture with girlfriend and Manchester City star Vivianne Miedema.
Miedema, who represented Holland at the tournament before their group stage exit as part of England’s group, even wore an England shirt to support her girlfriend from the stands.
Mead and Ella Toone also took a moment to remember those who couldn’t be there, with both stars losing parents in recent years.
Toone shared a selfie of the pair with the caption: “We did it for our angels in the sky. Forever with us & forever proud”.
The Man Utd star, whose dad died last year, also shared a photo of an empty seat next to her mum at the game with the words: “Spare seat next to my mum tonight.
“If that’s not a sign I don’t know what is. I know you were there Dad. Love you cock!”
Following the on-pitch celebrations, the Lionesses had even more beer and singing in the dressing room.
Chloe Kelly hoped that the celebrations were going to echo around England, telling the BBC at full-time: “The celebrations are going to be crazy.
“I hope the whole of England comes out to support us and shows the love to all these girls, because they deserve it.”
Kelly will get her wish tomorrow, when the players and staff will embark on an open-top bus parade and a huge homecoming party in central London.
Starting at 12.10pm, the bus will drive past fans along The Mall before ending with a staged ceremony at the Queen Victoria Memorial in front of Buckingham Palace at around 12.30pm.
