We need to talk about Harry Maguire's rocket of a penalty that absolutely destroyed a TV camera.

Maguire confidently converted his spot-kick in the dramatic shootout defeat to Italy in the final of Euro 2020.

He stepped up following Harry Kane's successful penalty and made no mistake from 12-yards, emphatically scoring past Gianluigi Donnarumma.

The England star walloped the ball into the top corner, smashing a camera in the process.

Fans online loved the Manchester United defender's penalty.

Unfortunately for England, they didn't score their next three penalties with Italy taking home the title.

Speaking after the crushing defeat at Wembley Stadium, Maguire reflected on the game.

"We are heartbroken, disappointed, gutted, the lads are devastated," said the 28-year-old, who has performed heroically at the back during the tournament.

He added: "We gave everything out there, you've seen it was a bit of a ding dong. We had the first-half, they had the second, extra time could have gone either way.

"We found another gear in second period of extra time and put pressure on them. To be decided by penalties is disappointing and to lose the match is not what we came here to this stadium for.

"We wanted to bring the trophy home and it was unfortunate."
