'Pick that one out!' - Hilarious reactions after Everton's Jordan Pickford is England penalty hero

Fans have shared their hilarious reactions as Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford became England's penalty hero once more.

The Three Lions were in action against Switzerland in the third place playoff of the Nations League on Sunday afternoon in Portugal, but the two sides played out a drab 0-0 draw to take the match to penalties.

Pickford had, of course, made himself an England hero in the World Cup with his saves against Colombia in the shootout which helped send Gareth Southgate's side into the quarter finals of the tournament.

And the Everton shot-stopper was on hand to go one better this time around.

Not only did the Blues man save the decisive penalty from Josip Drmic, but he also stood up to take one himself.

And he sparked incredible reactions across social media as he hammered his left-footed penalty into the back of the net, giving Yann Sommer in the Swiss goal no chance.

Here is how fans reacted after Pickford's amazing shootout performance:

The final of the Nations League will be played later on this evening.

Portugal take on the Netherlands to determine who will land the trophy for the very first time.
