On Sunday, July 11, the month-long football fiesta - EURO 2020 - will come to an end. In the tournament final, two true football giants - Italy and England - will face each other. Both teams reached the championship final without major stumbles and without experiencing any losses. However, the Italians had to test their luck in a penalty shootout in the semi-finals, while the English needed an extra 30 minutes in the same stage. So, what can we expect from the EURO 2020 final match, which will take place at Wembley Stadium? Spectators should not expect a goal feast. Such tournament finals are usually not very high-scoring, and this time two teams with fantastic defense throughout the championship will go head to head. The English team only conceded their first goal in the semi-final match against Denmark, while the Italians have also conceded only three goals so far. These numbers, and the fact that the teams will compete for the title, suggest that we should not expect many goals in the match. It is very likely that this will be the one decisive match where everything will be decided by one single goal. The home advantage factor. The English have been considered one of the favorites of the tournament since the beginning, and only the French chances were rated higher. Many factors contributed to these predictions, including the fact that England has played almost all their matches at home and had only one away match, in Rome, when they met Ukraine in the quarter-finals. The final will also take place at Wembley Stadium, where the fans of the teams awaiting victory in the European Championship should create an unparalleled atmosphere, even taking into account the fact that the number of spectators is still limited. This is undoubtedly one of the reasons why the English should be considered favorites for the final. What outcome do you predict for the final?
