Euro Cup 2020: Italy are the champions of Europe! First time since 1968

The Euro Cup came a year late due to the Pandemic. It’s never too late for Italy which wins its first European championship in 53 years beating England on penalty kicks at a packed house in Wembley Stadium, London

The Guardian 7.11.2021

RESULT: Italy 1-1 England (aet; Italy win 3-2 on penalty kicks)

As Donnarumma disappears under a pile of azzurri shirts, Saka dissolves into tears. Italy are champions of Europe again, for the first time since 1968! Congratulations to Italy, commiserations to England. England’s wait goes on; no trophy for their remarkable young squad, but they remain heroes all.
