EURO 2020 | Ep 23 | Can England Join Ita...

THE TIMES
About this episode

Hugh Woozencroft is joined by Gregor Robertson, Matt Lawton and Henry Winter.


Italy are into the final after one of the best matches of the tournament against a revitalised Spain. Is Spain’s problem the lack of someone to put the ball in the net? Can Italy be beaten or are they destined for glory? (00:00)


Denmark stand in England’s way if they want to join the Italians in the final on Sunday at Wembley. Is this arguably a bigger moment than the same stage at Euro 96? (21:50)


What’s different about this England team? Is the change in culture down to Gareth Southgate alone? We make out final predictions ahead of tonight’s semi-final (39:10)


Tonight’s result:

Italy 1-1 Spain (Italy win 4-2 on penalties)
