Preview: Kieran Trippier has been recalled to the England team for Sunday’s Euro 2020 final at Wembley against Italy, who are unchanged from their semi-final win on penalties against Spain. Atletico Madrid full-back Trippier replaces Arsenal winger Bukayo Saka in a change that will see England manager Gareth Southgate revert to the five-man defence that he used in the 2-0 win over Germany in the last 16. Trippier has since been used off the bench in the wins over Ukraine in the last eight and against Denmark in the semi-final on Wednesday. England are otherwise unchanged and Harry Kane, who scored the extra-time winner against Denmark, captains a side that is looking to win the country’s first major international tournament since the 1966 World Cup in front of an expected crowd of 67,500. Italy, who are themselves chasing a first European Championship crown since 1968, go with the same line-up that started against Spain with Emerson Palmieri of Chelsea continuing at left-back in place of the injured Leonardo Spinazzola. Starting line-ups: Italy (4-3-3) Gianluigi Donnarumma; Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Leonardo Bonucci, Giorgio Chiellini (capt), Emerson Palmieri; Nicolo Barella, Jorginho, Marco Verratti; Federico Chiesa, Ciro Immobile, Lorenzo Insigne Coach: Roberto Mancini (ITA) England (5-3-2) Jordan Pickford; Kieran Trippier, Kyle Walker, John Stones, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw; Declan Rice, Kalvin Phillips, Mason Mount; Harry Kane (capt), Raheem Sterling Coach: Gareth Southgate (ENG) Referee: Bjorn Kuipers (NED) With inputs from AFP

 "Highlights, Euro 2020 final, Italy vs England at London: Italy win Championship on penalties")
This is it from us. Italy, the best team in this tournament, became Euro 2020 champion after beating England in penalties. What a turnaround for a team which didn’t even qualify for 2018 FIFA World Cup. So many heroes for them and so many heroes for England as well. Gareth Southgate has a team for the future. They tried their best today but it was not meant to be.

Penalties: ITA 3-2 ENG
Wembley is stunned. England players can’t believe it but credit to Italy. They played outstanding football through the tournament. Donnarumma who saved the final penalty is in tears and so is Saka who missed it. Contrasting emotions but that is football.
Shoutout to Italy manager Roberto Mancini who achieved so much in club football and now takes his team to continental glory.

Harry Kane is the next man and he converts. Just too much power.
Penalties: ITA 1-0 ENG
Italy go first. Berardi sends pickford the wrong way. Clean strike!
ITA 1-1 ENG
Before the final whistle, England made two substitutions. Henderson and Walker were replaced by Rasford and Sancho just for the penalties.
ITA 1-1 ENG
That’s it. Penalties will decide the winner of Euro 2020. Not so great performance from both the teams in the extra-time. Chance for goalkeepers to become a hero for their teams.
120’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Italy with a chance from corner. Bernardeschi’s corner is a good one but Italy can’t take the advantage.
118’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Change for Italy. Florenzi replaces Emerson in Italian XI. Two more minutes of extra-time remaining.
115’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Yellow card for Jorginho for catching Jack Grealish with his studs on his follow through. Grealish is in pain but looks okay to continue.
112’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Superb ball from Henderson to Sterling who tries to dribbles past Chilleni inside the box but can’t beat the Italian defender. Top class from the Italy captain.
110’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Kane with a decent ball from left. John Stones goes for the header but fails to make contact as Donnarumma punches the ball away.
108’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Free-kick to Italy. Federico Bernardeschi goes for the glory, Pickford spills the ball but collects it before it reached an Italian player.
106’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Right then, after a small break, the players are back again on the field. Looks like Marcus Rashford iis getting ready to come in.
ITA 1-1 ENG
Scrappy first period of extra-time. The tiredness is showing but both teams can’t afford to lose concentration at this crucial juncture.
105+1’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Free-kick to England. Shaw takes from the left but referee sees pushing in the box and the call goes against England.
105’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Emerson beats his marker and sends in a threatening ball. Bernardeschi charges ahead but can’t make contact with the ball as Pickford comes up with a awkward clearance as England survive.
98’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Change for England as well. Mason Mount makes way for Jack Grealish. Can the Aston Villia man make a difference tonight?
96’ TA 1-1 ENG
Close. The deflected ball falls in the way of Henderson who sends it towards Sterling on the right. The chance is on but Chilleni clears the danger away. Corner for England as Phillips tries a long-ranger but it’s wide.
Verratti is done and Locatelli comes in.
91’ ITA 1-1 ENG
England start the proceedings in this first period of extra-time. Insigne has been removed and Beloti comes in for Italy
ITA 1-1 ENG
Full time! We don’t have a winner so 30 more minutes of extra-time in the final. Italy were the best team in the second-half and deserved their goal. England lack creativity so maybe Jack Grealish will feature sometime soon.
95’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Yellow card for Chilleni. Saka beats him for the ball but he was down due to the Italian defender’s pulling of shirt.
93’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Italy keeping the ball. England happy to defend and take the match into the extra-time.
90’ ITA 1-1 ENG
The action in the middle stopped for a while due to a pitch invader. The fourth official has now shown six minutes of added time.
85’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Right, so Chiesa is being replaced by his Juventus teammate Benardeschi. Insigne shown yellow card for a challenge on Phillips. Mason Mount takes the free-kick but nothing comes of it.
81’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Chiesa picks up a knock. Hope it’s not serious because has been absolutely sensational for Italy. England didn’t have any answers against him today.
78’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Italy keeping the ball and piling on the pressure.The momentum is with them and they want to take advantage of it. England need regain the control.
76’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Chance! Berardi takes the long ball from Bonucci onto his feet really well but can’t find the back of the net. Pickford completely beaten there.
Meanwhile, Rice comes off and Henderson takes his place.
72’ ITA 1-1 ENG
Attacking change from England. Trippier makes way for Saka. Looks like it will be back four for England.
