Italy Beat Spain to Reach Euro 2020 Final

Thrilling Semi-Final Ends in Penalty Shootout

Italy emerged victorious over Spain in a captivating Euro 2020 semi-final match at a thunderous Wembley Stadium.

After a grueling 120 minutes of play, the match went down to a penalty shootout. Federico Bernardeschi stepped up to take the decisive spot-kick, calmly slotting the ball into the bottom corner to secure a 4-2 victory for Italy.

Spain had taken an early lead through Álvaro Morata in the 60th minute, but Federico Chiesa equalized for Italy 10 minutes later, sending the match into extra time.

Neither team could find a winning goal in extra time, setting the stage for the dramatic penalty shootout. Italy's goalkeeper, Gianluigi Donnarumma, saved two of Spain's penalties, while all four of Italy's attempts found the back of the net.

This victory sends Italy to their first major tournament final since winning the 2006 World Cup. They will face either England or Denmark in the final on Sunday, July 11.
