Last-gasp Italy equaliser breaks Croatian hearts

Jimbo's joined by Duncan Alexander and Sasha Goryunov to reflect on the dramatic climax to Group B at Euro 2024.We begin in Leipzig - where Mattia Zaccagni scored in the final minute of stoppage time as Italy broke Croatian hearts with a late equaliser in a 1-1 draw that ensures the defending champions progress to the last 16 - and leaves Luka Modrić and co all but eliminated. A beer-soaked Tim Spiers dials in on the final whistle before James Horncastle reports back from a rather spiky Luciano Spalletti press conference...No such drama for Spain, who cruised into the next round with their third victory and third clean sheet of the tournament in their 1-0 win over Albania (which happened to assure the Three Lions of a spot in the next round...). Michael Cox is on hand to tell us more from the Düsseldorf Arena.Then, it's all eyes on Group C and D who face their final outings on matchday three. We get the Slovenian perspective from journalist Miran Zore ahead of their meeting with England - and preview the fortunes of the other sides in action on a bumper day 12 out in Germany.Produced by Lucy Oliva.Theme music by JJ Bull.RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1a: Croatia 1-1 Italy with Tim Spiers & James Horncastle (3.00)• PART 1b: Albania 0-1 Spain with Michael Cox (13.55)• PART 2a: England v Slovenia preview with Miran Zore (19.55)• PART 2b: Denmark v Serbia preview (29.05)• PART 3a: Netherlands v Austria preview (30.35)• PART 3b: France v Poland preview (32.20)SIGN UP TO THE ATHLETIC TODAY FOR £1 A MONTH FOR 12 MONTHS• theathletic.com/totally Hosted on Acast.
