italy beat england in the finals of the Euro cup 2021. The goal count was similar at the end of full time both scoring one goal. In the penalty chance, italy won by leading england 3-2.

Cricketers are always fans of football. new zealand all-rounder jimmy neesham came with a cheeky take on the penalties. In the 2019 cricket world cup finals, New- Zealand faced England. The match tied and the umpires called for a super over. england set a target of 16 runs.

jimmy neesham went out with martin guptill for the chase. The super over also ended up in a tie. But, ICC had this weird rule which says, in rare cases like this, the team which hit more boundaries should be awarded the trophy. It felt immoral on so many levels. Adding the fact that cricket being called a batsman’s game, this rule justified the partiality even more.

So in the words of Ian chapel, new zealand lost by the barest of all the margins. Being in the field and facing this absolute agony to the face, it’s understandable that jimmy neesham can’t hold back from saying this. However, the international cricket Council has changed the rule to a number of super overs happening until a result is found.
