Italy maintains its invincible run and qualified for EURO 2020 semifinal. They secured a place in the semifinal to win Euro 2020 by knocking World No. 1 Belgium in the quarter-final in Munich on Friday. Goals from Lorenzo Insigne and Nicolo Barella gave Italy a 2-0 lead while Romelu Lukaku’s goal from the sport was not enough as Italy beat Roberto Mancini’s side in a fiercely contested match.

It was heartbreak for Belgium as they failed in the knockout phases of a major tournament once again. After qualifying in the Euro 2016 quarter-finals, Belgium was ousted in the semi-final at the FIFA World Cup in 2018.

However, in contempt of not having captain Eden Hazard, Belgium showed a valiant fight with the likes of Jeremy Doku, Kevin de Bruyne, and Romelu Lukaku threatening to trouble Italy but the Giorgio Chiellini-led Italian defense was excellent on the previous night.

In the EURO 2020 semifinal, Italy will now face Spain on July 11, 2021, on Sunday at Wembley Stadium.
