The Spanish national team is moving on to the UEFA Nations League Final thanks to a 2-1 win over Italy at San Siro on Wednesday’s semi-final. La Roja came into the game missing key players due to injury, but Luis Enrique’s team ended Italy’s record-setting 37-game unbeaten streak, and Barcelona teenage midfielder Gavi was one of the stars of the show and helped the Spaniards pull off the upset at the home of the European champions.
FIRST HALF
The first half followed a very similar script to the EURO 2020 semi-final at Wembley three months ago: Spain had the ball and the initiative while Italy defended with great intensity and looked to force mistakes to create chances.
