Rome was awash in the colours of its national team on Friday (July 2) as hundreds of fans celebrated the Azzurri's 2-1 Euro 2020 quarter-final victory over Belgium. Supporters roared in delight at a fan zone in Rome's Piazza del Popolo and later celebrated in Piazza Venezia, after the victory at the Allianz Arena stadium in Munich. Italians must have been the only football fans not begging for extra time near the end of their team's 2-1 Euro 2020 quarter-final win over Belgium as the high-octane clash delivered the best international football can offer. Like two heavyweight boxers trading punches in a title fight, Italy and Belgium threw everything they had at each other throughout a contest packed with pace, energy, tactical know-how and individual skill. Italy's relentless pressure had Belgium on the ropes after they fell 2-0 behind to a Nicolo Barella strike and a Lorenzo Insigne curler before Romelu Lukaku pulled one back with a penalty on the stroke of halftime. With Lukaku misfiring in the second half as he spurned a guilt-edged chance to equalize, it was 19-year-old forward Jeremy Doku who carried Belgium's effort with electrifying pace and close control. Having tormented his markers on the left flank all evening, Doku won Belgium's penalty and nearly scored the goal of the tournament after a dazzling solo run. Italy have scored 11 goals so far at Euro 2020, an Italian record in a single European Championship, as they seem to have all the ingredients for a title charge. With a 100% record, Italy head into their semi-final with Spain confident of reaching a second final in the last three editions of the tournament, having lost 4-0 to their next opponents in the 2012 showpiece match. ........................................................................................
