Wales secured their progression to the Euro 2020 last 16 despite defeat to Italy in Rome, with the Azzurri making it an impressive three wins from three in Group A.

Rob Page and his men headed into their showdown with Italy at the Stadio Olimpico knowing a point would be enough to confirm their place in the next round.
