ITALY IS EURO 2020 CHAMPION: BEATS ENGLAND 3:2 IN A PENALTY SHOOTOUT.

ICHEOKU says despite scoring the fastest goal on record, just two minutes into the match by striker Luke Shaw, England still lost the finals to the Azurri. A championship finals that went ninety minutes full time, then into extra time of six minutes and over time of thirty minutes before a penalty shootout decided the outcome, 3-2 in favor of the Italians. It was a good match anyway, admitted the Italians outplayed and literary dominated the English side, particularly in the mid field. 

It shares something in common with the 2021 COPA America championship in that the winning side defeated the losing side on their home turf. Argentina came to Brazil's Rio de Janeiro and defeated Brazil just like the Italians has now defeated the English side inside their Wembley Stadium in London. It was somewhat humiliating being beaten inside one's soccer cathedral, Wembley and Maracana stadia respectively. But hey, it was just a game and no life was lost as each side now lives to fight another day. Congratulations to the boys in blue, ben fatto.
