The Italian national team continues to advance triumphantly in the European Championship. In yesterday's match, after defeating the Spaniards in an 11-meter penalty shootout, Roberto Mancini's players advanced to the final, where they will face the winner of the pair of England and Denmark. The semi-final match was not short of curious and memorable moments. Celebrating defender Leonardo Bonucci ran to the Italian national team fans, but the stadium security mistook him for a supporter and initially did not allow him to return to the field. Defender Leonardo Spinazzola, who was sidelined from the competition due to a leg injury, expressed his emotions while watching the television broadcast, and all team members showed support for him after the triumph. And before the penalty shootout, Italian veteran Giorgio Chiellini did not hesitate to exchange words with his opponent Jordi Alba, whose actions he did not particularly like.
