Italy Celebrate Last-Gasp Goal Against Croatia
Zaccagni's Late Strike Secures Draw and Knockout Berth
Italy breathed a sigh of relief as Mattia Zaccagni's stoppage-time goal earned them a dramatic 1-1 draw against Croatia and a place in the knockout stages of Euro 2024.
Croatia, who needed a win to progress, took the lead through a Ivan Perisic header in the 63rd minute. However, Italy refused to give up and Zaccagni's late heroics kept their hopes alive.
The draw means Italy finish second in Group A behind Spain, while Croatia are eliminated after finishing third.
Italy will now face the winner of Group B in the last 16, while Croatia's Euro 2024 campaign is over.
