The Italian team won the UEFA Champions League for the first time since 1968, as Donnarumma saved England in a 3-2 penalty shootout after a 1-1 overtime draw at the bustling Wembley Stadium on Sunday There were two penalties in England.
After Marcus Rashford hit the goal post, the giant goalkeeper will be rescued from Sancho and Bukayo Saka, Federico Bernardeschi, Leonardo Bonucci and Do Menico Belladi scored for the Italians.
Two minutes later, Lukeshaw gave England a fantastic start with a wonderful goal, but Italy, which had hardly any response in the first half, as the hosts sat down in the 67th minute and equalized by Bonucci The score gradually gained command.
This is the first penalty final since Czechoslovakia defeated West Germany in 1976, and after their defeat in the finals in 2000 and 2012, they will celebrate in Italy.
They played most of the games after halftime and in overtime, and after their early promises disappeared, England had few complaints.
Nevertheless, for most of the 67,000 Wembley fans, this is heartbreaking, as England lost the first Grand Slam final since winning the World Cup 55 years ago.
When Harry Kane passed the ball to Kieran Trippier, everything started so smoothly. He immediately returned coach Gareth Southgate’s confidence in recalling him. He sent a deep curling pass. , Shaw, who arrived quickly, encountered the inside in a half-time volley. For his first international goal.
England took the lead early in the 2018 World Cup semi-final against Croatia, but were eventually eliminated in overtime. However, they did not seem to give up the initiative at home and played on the front foot, although they failed to threaten much. Narooma.
Crisp lens
England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford was also undisturbed, because Federico Chiesa (Federico Chiesa) simply missed the goal, while Ciro Immobile (Ciro Immobile) was blocked by Italy. Disjointed performance at halftime.
England’s well-trained defense. In their previous six games, they lost only one goal through a Danish free kick, which allowed them to keep a certain distance. The central defender Bonucci flew wildly from 35 meters for the last time. Sum up the frustration of Italy. Halftime kicking-it made his teammates disgusted.
In the 57th minute, Pickford started playing, blocking Lorenzo Insigne’s shot, and then knocking England back when Italy began to apply pressure.
After Pickford scored Andrea Bellotti’s header into the post, Bonucci raided from close range, which paid off.
The England team can have no complaints, actually invited their opponents and offered almost nothing in the offense. They will breathe a sigh of relief in overtime.
A similar story happened in the first 15 minutes, although the England team did forcibly return to the game briefly in the second quarter, although neither side created anything to reward the noise of the crowd.
So it entered a penalty shootout, England’s young gunners failed, and Italy won the glory.
