Match overview
Italy’s record unbeaten run survived a stern Austrian examination that stretched into extra time. Substitute Chiesa’s crisp finish finally broke the deadlock, and Pessina doubled the advantage before Kalajdžić’s brave header set up a tense finale. Mancini’s men advanced to their fourth consecutive Euro quarter-final.
Trivia
Italy conceded for the first time in over 19 hours of play, eclipsing their own all-time defensive mark. At 21 years 365 days, Chiesa became the Azzurri’s youngest scorer in a Euro knock-out match since Pierino Prati in 1968.
