The goal followed by the celebration is an icon.
In revealing a sports bra by taking her shirt off and swinging it around her head in delight, the Manchester City player created a moment which has united and empowering women.
When Kelly scored the winning goal in the 1999 World Cup final, she did the same thing as retired USA footballer Brandi Chastain.
Kelly will get the benefits for the rest of her life, according to Chastain.
Within minutes of the goal being scored, the positive effect the moment could have on young girls and women was obvious.
Kelly had a serious knee injury in May 2021.
She missed out on a chance to play for Great Britain at the Olympics because of her injury.
She said she couldn't watch the Olympics. It was a tough summer last year. It seems like it's been a long time.
Kelly said the experience changed her outlook on football and helped her appreciate it more.
She said that when something like that happens you're away from the game for a long time. You don't really have to worry after.
I used to get nervous before the game. I think the worst that can happen is what I don't have those nerves about.
I have been through a lot. Every moment is important to me.
England were crowned European champion for the first time after the final whistle.
