Spain team Euro 2020

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique has criticized the style of the Spanish shootout defeat to Italy.

Italy booked their place in the Euro 2020 Final, by beating Spain in a penalty shootout in the semi-final at Wembley Stadium.

Pique is of the opinion that, in Italy, has an advantage in comparison with La Roja, as the shooting began, and he won the coin toss.

“This isn’t a coincidence, and in the four matches at EURO 2020 and the Copa America, we turn to the teams that have started the shootout,” the Spain defender said on the social network.

The statistics say that it is the one that starts, more opportunities, and in a tournament like this, it seems unfair to me that the drawing that you can boot from the most disadvantageous position.”
