The Hindu  

Italy finished top of its Euro 2020 group on Sunday as Matteo Pessina’s first-half goal helped a much-changed Azzurri side beat 10-man Wales 1-0 in Rome, while the visitor held on to second place despite the defeat. Pessina volleyed the dominant host in front at a lively Stadio Olimpico after 39 minutes as it put in an impressive display despite coach Roberto Mancini making eight changes to his starting line-up. #EURO2020 — UEFA EURO 2020 June 20, 2021 Andrea Belotti flashed a shot wide from a tight angle, Chris Gunter headed narrowly over from a corner for the Welsh and Federico Chiesa’s volley was deflected off the line during a frantic five-minute spell midway through the half. 30 games unbeaten 11 straight clean sheets 32 goals without reply #EURO2020pic.twitter.com/ZrB2irfeze — UEFA EURO 2020 June 20, 2021 Mancini’s side was inches away from a second early in the second half when Bernardeschi cannoned a free-kick off the foot of the post, and a few minutes later the Italy winger had his foot stamped on by Ampadu, leading to the defender’s dismissal.
