Italy, the second victory in 53 years
After a one-year postponement, EURO 2020 was held in 10 countries for the first time, and finally the final match was held at Wembley Stadium in London, England, the home country of soccer.
The winner was Italy, which was one of the candidate countries for the victory but was not so well received.
Italy lost in the last eight in the last tournament. The subsequent World Cup was also eliminated in qualifying and was in the process of being revived under Mancini.
The aim was to shift from the traditional catenaccio-centered style to a new style that also focused on attacks, but the results were brilliantly proved at this tournament.
Of the total score of 12, Immobile, Immobile, Chiesa, Pessina and Locatelli each scored two points, and it was a great advantage to be able to score goals from anywhere without relying on a specific player.
On the other hand, in terms of traditional defense, the defenses of Chielini and Bonucci are strong. 0 goals on the group stage. In the final tournament, all four games were conceded to one goal.
However, both the semi-final against Spain and the final against England were penalty shootouts, and although they eventually became champions, they were not overwhelmingly strong.
This tournament has become a decentralized tournament, but it is said that it was a heavy burden for players because it required them to travel long distances according to the schedule of the match.
In Italy, all group stage matches were played in Rome and there was no need to move.
Even after entering the tournament stage, he had to move to Munich for the match against Belgium, but all other matches were played in London.
By the way, England, who played in the final, also fought in London for all group stages, and even in the tournament stay, only the match against Ukrai was in Rome, but after that it was all in London.
The two teams that made it to the finals were the two teams that moved the least during the tournament.
That may be one of the reasons why Italy was able to win the championship.
However, the fact that Italy won the championship remains unchanged. I would like to pay attention to the new Italian soccer in the future.
