Argentina Beats Italy and Wins Champions Cup Title
Argentina celebrated the distinctive resurrection of the Champions Cup football clash by beating Italy 3-0
in a high-calibre match described as the “final” and held at Wembley Stadium, which fans crowded
Wednesday.
Two first-half goals by Lautaro Martinez and Angel Di Maria put the South American champions ahead for
Argentina to take full control of the meeting against Italy, who returned to Luembley 11 months after beating
England to claim the postponed Euro 2020 title.
However With thousands of supporters in the audience of 87 thousand who seemed determined to turn North-West London
into Buenos Aires overnight, Argentina, including Lionel Messi, have been very quick and impressive against Italy’s
struggling side.
So Martinez found the net from close range in the 28th minute of Messi’s low cross to reward Argentina for their early
dominance.
however Inter Milan’s Martinez sent De Maria’s pass into the net to double the score by halftime, pushing Argentina fans
towards a state of euphoria and joy.
Argentina could have scored a large number of goals after the break, after Messi was able to control his team’s
performance, while Italy’s goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma prevented his side from conceding a brutal defeat.
Substitute Paulo Dybala emphasized Argentina’s advantage with a low shot in injury time.
However The match marked a disappointing finish to Italy’s strong defender Giorgio Chiellini’s career as the 37-year-old
was replaced at half-time in his 117th and final appearance for his country.
So The “Final” is a revival of the Champions Cup between South American and European champions that was held
only twice before, in 1985 and 1993.
