In the UEFA Euro 2020 Round of 16 Italy came away with a 2-1 victory over Austria in extra time, with Italians and those who support the national team holding their breath. 

There was a moment where Austria thought there were taking the lead following a goal from Marko Arnautović. However, the Video Assistant Referee would wipe out that, and it would head into extra time.

The goal is to make you proud of us, despite the difficulties, the emotion we did not give up.

We have all suffered together, and all together now we go to the quarters.
