England vs Italy |
England vs Italy Euro 2020 Final on Sunday at Wembley. It should be noted that this will be the sixth Euro match at Wembley for England. Only with Ukraine did the team play in Rome.
Therefore, the British will have no problems with support. Although, generally speaking, fans from other countries after the England - Denmark match wrote in social networks that now they would rather root for the Italians. Thus, they hinted at the dubiousness of the penalty assigned in extra time.
On the way to the final, Italy won all the matches, only two times (with Austria and Spain) drew in regulation time, but put the squeeze on the opponent in overtime.
In the last three matches, the Italians conceded one goal each (in two cases in extra time), and before that, they won 11 clean sheets in a row. England's statistics are also good, this year they have not lost yet. There were draws with Scotland in the Euro group stage and with Denmark in regular time.
For the British this is the first Euro final, for the Italians - the fourth, but they won the tournament only once in 1968.

There is no doubt that the players of both teams equally want to take the trophy, there are also no complaints about the selection of performers, it remains only to wait for the game and see what surprises the coaches have prepared.
As the head coach of the Ukrainian national team Andriy Shevchenko has already stated, England had never met an opponent at the Euro that could put pressure on her as much as Italy does, and this is the main advantage of the “Azzurra Squadra”.
There should be some line-up changes for the Italians after the struggles with Austria, Belgium, and Spain.
There should be a return to the 'starting' formation with three doubts, one for each department, due to the conditions of some players and also to the ballots in the head of the coach.
Italy_Obviously in goal Gigio Donnarumma. In defense, on the right, Florenzi could return, otherwise, it will once again be a Di Lorenzo-Toloi ballot with the first who should play from the start.
At the center Bonucci with Chiellini which should be confirmed, otherwise, Acerbi will be there. On the left, certainly the return of Emerson Palmieri, given the injury of Spinazzola.
In the middle of the field, Barella and Jorginho, certain of the place, Locatelli could be preferred to Verratti. Forward Insigne sure in the starting 11, with Berardi fighting with Chiesa for the last place available in the offensive trident of Mancio.

Giorgio Chiellini played for Italy U21 against England U21 in the first official game at the new Wembley.
He cracked his head open and refused to go off. ❌🤕
14 years later, he’s the only player from either team who is still playing. 🤯©️ pic.twitter.com/AeiW3pTe5O
