Italy won their first European Championship since 1968 after Marcus Rashford, Jadon Sancho and Bukayo Saka failed to beat Gianluigi Donnarumma in the shootout."It all ends in tears," read the front page of the Daily Mail, while the Daily Telegraph led with "The ultimate agony ... penalties heartbreak again" alongside a photo of coach Gareth Southgate consoling Saka, who missed the fifth spot kick.

"That dream, sadly, was not to be. For while the denouement was painful, what preceded was just a plain old game of football."
