LIONS HEARTBROKEN

England Euro 2020 fall-out LIVE: Overwhelming support for Three Lions stars Saka, Rashford and Sancho – latest reaction

ITALY are Euro 2020 champions after beating England on penalties at Wembley.

Luke Shaw netted early for a rampant Three Lions, before Gareth Southgate's men were pegged back in the second half by Leonardo Bonucci.

And after a tense and hard-fought draw over the full 120 minutes, it came down to spot-kicks once again.

Ultimately it was to be heartbreak for England, with Gialuigi Donnarumma saving from Jadon Sancho and Bukayo Saka, while Marcus Rashford's penalty hit the post.
