Italy vs Spain Match Preview

For the semifinals of Euro 2020, Italy will face Spain. The match will take place at Wembley in London in front of 60,000 spectators.

Italy certified the excellent situation in which they are, beating Belgium 2-1 in the quarterfinals. In the last quarter of the first half, they took a significant lead by two goals, but immediately Belgium scored and re-entered the game. In the replay, Squadra Azzura withstood the pressure and thus extended her unbeaten streak to 32 matches and now tonight she is aiming for her fourth appearance in a European Championship final.

Unsurprisingly, Spain overcame the obstacle of Switzerland in the penalty shootout and won their participation in the semifinals of the tournament. They entered the match dynamically and in the first ten minutes they had taken the lead in the score, while until the end of the first half they had opportunities for a second goal. In the second half however, their performance dropped, as a result of which they were drawn and although from 77' they were playing with one player more, they could not transform their pressure into a goal. With the score not changing in the extra time, both teams were led to the penalties and there, with their goalkeeper as a hero, Spain qualified.

First great semifinal between two traditional forces of European football aiming for the final. Italy impress in the tournament with their appearances and are rightly the favorite of the match. Spain, for their part, show several ups and downs in their performance while defensively conceding goals easily. I think that Italy have the first say in the match for qualifying for the final. Victory of Italy at odds of 2.56
