Italy Are EURO 2020 Champions

Italy emerged EURO 2020 champions by defeating England on a night fraught with tension, Italy clinched its first major title for 15 years with a penalty shootout win over England

Luke Shaw’s goal inside the opening two minutes gave England a lead it looked like it would hold onto all night, before a goalmouth scramble midway through the second half allowed Leonardo Bonucci to poke home an equalizer for Italy.

For the remainder of the match it felt as though extra-time and penalties were inevitable, as neither side seemed willing or brave enough to commit enough men forward to really trouble the opposing defenders.
