Wounded and the second Euro U-21 championship semifinal. The teams of Spain and Italy clashed in it. As expected, the fight was intense from the first minutes, and both teams had opportunities to score already in the first half. However, it ended goalless, but the fun began after the break. In the 53rd minute, a great strike with his left foot by Saul Niguez put Spain ahead. He was assisted by Dani Ceballos. Although the Spaniards seemed to secure victory five minutes later as Roberto Gagliardini received his second yellow card, the Italians were not ready to give up - after more than an hour, the result became level after Federico Bernardeschi's goal. Then Niguez took matters into his own hands again, scoring an impressive long-range goal, unleashing a rocket from outside the box. To make matters worse, he eventually scored a hat-trick. So, the Spanish team reached the tournament final, where they will face England after beating the Germans in a penalty shootout. Result: Spain U-21 3 - 1 Italy U-21 [1-0] 53' Saul Niguez 58' Roberto Gagliardini (Italy U-21) sent off from the field [1-1] 62' Federico Bernardeschi [2-1] 65' Saul Niguez [3-1] 74' Saul Niguez
