EURO 2020: Italy 2-1 Austria

Italy have qualified for the quarter-finals in the Euro 2020 as they beat Austria 2-1 on Saturday night. The teams failed to find a winner in the 90 minutes, so the game was taken to the extra time. And already in the first minutes Federico Chiesa finally opened the scoring. Matteo Pessina made it 2-0 just seconds before the first extra halftime was over. In the second half of the extra time Sasa Kalajdzic pulled one back for Austria.

How low can you go? This is a terrific goal via #AUT’s Kalajdzic! It snaps #ITA’s run of 11 consecutive clean sheets, dating back to October last year. One more clean sheet would’ve equalled Italy’s record from 1972-74.#ITAAUT #EURO2020 pic.twitter.com/Eks6bflvWx
