Golf From Page 1B Warbirds From Page 1B SOCCER BY STEVE DOUGLAS The Associated Press LONDON Italian redemption story is complete.

painful half-century wait for a major title goes on. And it just had to be because of a penalty shootout. Italy won the European Championship for the second time by beating England 3-2 on penalties on Sunday. The match n- ished 1-1 after extra time. Gianluigi Donnarumma dived to his left and saved the decisive spot kick by Bukayo Saka, third straight failure from the penalty spot in the sho- outout in front of its own fans at Wembley Stadium.

It was less than four years ago that the Italians plunged to the lowest moment of its soccer history by failing to qualify for the World Cup for the rst time in six decades. Now, they are the best team in Europe and on a national- record 34-match unbeaten run under Roberto Mancini, their suave coach. England was playing in its rst major nal in 55 years. the latest heartache in shootouts at major tournaments, after defeats in 1990, 1996, 1998, 2004, 2006 and 2012. England went ahead in the second minute when Luke Shaw scored the fastest goal in a European Championship nal.

Leonardo Bonucci equalized in the 67th. Saka, a 19-year-old Londoner, was embraced by several England players after his miss. England coach Gareth Southgate hugged Jadon Sancho, who missed the previous England penalty, while Marcus Rashford the other one to miss walked off down the tunnel. Sancho and Rashford had been brought on in the nal minute of extra time, seemingly as specialist penalty takers. Donnarumma was in tears as he was embraced by his teammates as they sprinted toward him from the halfway line, where they watched the second penalty shootout in a European Championship nal.

They then headed to the other end of the eld and ran as one, diving to the ground in front of their own fans. It was second continental title after 1968, to add to the four World Cups. That the match went to extra time like three of the six European nals before it was not unexpected, given both nals also went the distance and the defensive solidity of both the teams. In fact, famously robust defense was only really opened up once in the entire 90 minutes and that resulted in goal, a half-volley that went in off the near post from Kieran cross. It was first goal for England and i prompted a st-pump between David Beckham an Tom Cruise in the VIP bo amid an explosion of jo around Wembley.

The fact that it was se up by Trippier, a full bac recalled to the team as par of a change of system to a 3-4-3 for the nal, woul have brought extra satisfaction to Southgate. Then, England barel saw the ball for the rest the game. elders dominated possession, starte playing their pretty passing routines and Englan resorted to getting nine even all 10 eld players behind the ball. It was reminiscent of the 2018 Worl Cup semifinals, whe England also scored earl against Croatia then spen most of the game chasin its eld. Initially, the Italians could only muster long- range efforts but the equalizer arrived from muc closer in.

A right-wing corne was icked on at the nea post, Marco Verratti ha a stooping header tippe onto the post by Pickford, and Bonucci put the ball i from close range. Still, England manage to hold on for extra time and actually had the bette of the nal stages. Just not the shootout, again.
