After seeing their country hit hard by the coronavirus, the Azzurri were glad to be able to start the tournament in style
Italy star Ciro Immobile basked in his goal against Turkey on Friday as he and his team-mates celebrated the fact that Italian fans could finally come together after over a year of battling the coronavirus.
Immobile scored the second of Italy's goals, leading the way in a 3-0 win that also included a finish from Lorenzo Insigne and an unfortunate own goal from Merih Demiral.
Italy's Euro 2020-opening win came at the Stadio Olimpico, home of Immobile's club team Lazio, making the striker's goal even sweeter.
