The UEFA Europa League final will be played on Monday (19) between Spain and Croatia! Spain beat Italy 2-1 in the semi-final on Friday (16) to reach the final with a last-gasp winner from veteran Zusano, making it the second consecutive UEFA Europa League final for Spain. Spain's leader Andy Foo, who took over after the World Cup, has led the team to the final in just three matches and is expected to win the Cup in no time.
Spain's strong lineup for this match, with Lodi Casciandi, who just won the UEFA Europa League for Manchester City, in the starting lineup, made a good start in the first 3 minutes. Spain forced Italy's midfielder Bonlux to throw the ball away, and Jeremy Mibinno scored easily in the penalty area. However, Spain also made a mistake in the 11th minute, when debutant center forward Navoldi conceded a 12-yard handball in the penalty area, and Italy equalized with Enmobili.
The two sides exchanged attacks and defenses, with Italian midfielder Faddis having a goal ruled out and Spanish striker Alvaro Morada missing a shot at goal. Two minutes before the end of the match, Lodi Casciandi's long-distance shot hit two Italian defenders, and then fell to the foot of Zusano, who came in as a reserve, and the scorer seized the opportunity to score the killer goal, leading Spain to the final.
