The end of the Eurocup has arrived and we already have a new champion! Italy clinched the title after a highly contested final at Wembley.
The British went ahead thanks to a very early goal from Luke Shaw, who with a great left foot put his team ahead with the entire final ahead. Little by little Italy entered the game, and after several clear occasions, starring the dangerous Chiesa, Bonucci's draw came, which resolved a commotion in the area.
Pickford emerged as the protagonist after saving a couple of clear chances from the Italians, including scare in a late start against Berardi, who fired wide. The final came, as has been the usual trend in this Euro, to a new extension, the eighth that was played in the tournament. Italy came close to the goal when Bernardeschi nearly hunted down an Emerson cross.
With no more chances of real danger, the fateful penalty shootout was finally reached where England took the lead after a save from Pickford to Bellotti. But two consecutive failures by Rashford and Sancho gave Jorginho the opportunity to sentence, but Pickford stopped again and kept hope for his people. On the final penalty, Donnarumma read Saka's intentions and Italy was proclaimed champion.
