England scored after just two minutes in the Euro 2020 final and former Three Lions right-back Gary Neville celebrated in the gantry at Wembley. His former Manchester United team-mate Roy Keane was at the receiving end of Neville's exuberant celebrations as he destroyed his notes.
He said: “We raised our eyebrows a little bit this afternoon when we saw the team and the system come through, but Gareth Southgate has proven himself to be absolutely spot on again.
“The overload in the wide right area, Kane dropping in, Sterling and Mount run past them.
"Chiellini and Bonucci have just been pulled around in that first half, apart from in that last 10 minutes.

On the other hand, Keane pointed out the Italian's poor defending for the opening goal.
He said: “It’s poor defending from Italy, they’ve got to stop the cross.
“Two minutes into the game, they’ve got to do better. But it’s a dream start for Gareth, no doubt.
“There’s been one or two warning signs, the end product from Italy hasn’t been great.

"But they’ve shown enough where you think maybe one goal won’t be enough.”
England are chasing their first piece of silverware since the 1966 World Cup.
They are also looking to win a first-ever European Championship title.
The Three Lions will have to end Italy's 32 match unbeaten streak to do so though.
