They failed to manage a single shot until Unai palmed away Emerson's effort in the 45th minute, while the Spanish will have been disappointed at not working Donnarumma more despite their dominance. Italy had controlled the ball in their earlier games and were clearly uncomfortable against Spain's pace and aggression. Oyarzabal wasted the first chance to open the scoring when he mis-controlled Pedri's pass when clean through on goal.įerran Torres then shot wide and Del Olmo saw a shot well saved by Gianluigi Donnarumma, while Italy had a chance only for Barella to be crowded out with Spain keeper Unai Simon out of his ground. The Spain coach was clearly looking for greater mobility and a high line of pressure against an organised Italian defence and after an even opening five minutes, Spain took control by swamping Jorginho and Verratti with their midfield pressure. The only change made by Italy coach Roberto Mancini ahead of the game was to bring Emerson in at left back for the injured Leonardo Spinazzola, while Luis Enrique brought Eric Garcia for Pau Torres in defence, while Dani Olmo and Mikel Oyarzabal replaced Alvaro Morata and Pablo Sarabia, who has a muscle injury.
