With the Women's Euros final fast approaching even the American Embassy is getting swept up by football fever.

In a tweet, the team shared a video recreating 'that' backheel Maidstone girl Alessia Russo scored against Sweden in the semi-final on Tuesday.

The forward who went to St Simon Stock School in the town and started playing at Bearsted stunned fans when she executed a fabulous piece of skill to give England a 3-0 lead, helping secure their place in the final at Wembley on Sunday.

Russo had a spell in America at University of North Carolina, playing football for North Carolina Tar Heels.

As a parody of the goal Aaron Snipes, an embassy spokesman, recreates it when he is jokingly told that he cannot support England as a foreign diplomat.

He screws up the piece of paper into a ball and, to the sounds of Nessun Dorma, flicks it through the legs of his colleague into a bin behind the door.

The Lionesses have exceeded expectations to reach the final, beating the Swedes who were the pre-tournament favourites to reach it.

Now fans will be getting ready to watch a potential piece of history in the making when the game kicks-off on Sunday at 5pm.

From Dreamland in Margate to the Goose in Gravesend, establishments across the county will play host to fans wanting to support the team bring home the women's first trophy as they take on Germany.
