Italy qualified for the semi-finals of Euro 2020 after a 2-1 victory against Belgium in Munich.
Goals from Nicolo Barella and Lorenzo Insigne but Roberto Mancini's men into a two-goal lead, before Romelu Lukaku's penalty halved the deficit just before the break.
Italy will now meet Spain at Wembley next week, and here Sportsmail assesses the performances from both sides after an enthralling affair.
Thibaut Courtois - 6
The Real Madrid goalkeeper won his 89th cap but on few others would he have felt so helpless.
Had no chance with Barella's fierce effort or the superb curler from Insigne.
Toby Alderweireld - 5
The Tottenham defender was part of a defence that eventually buckled to bits of Italian quality.
Made a couple of decent blocks in the first half but ultimately faded when it mattered most.
Thomas Vermaelen - 5
Dealt with things aerially and managed to keep danger man Immobile relatively quiet.
Could well be the 35-year-old's final appearance at a major tournament for his country.
Jan Vertonghen - 5
Helped deal with things aerially but crucially lost the ball in the build-up to Barella's goal. Part of an ageing defence that struggled to deal with a vibrant Italy.
Thomas Meunier - 5
Got down the right-hand side well but too often he wasted opportunities to cross the ball into dangerous areas with wayward balls. Struggled to contain Insigne and Chiesa at times down his side.
Youri Tielemans - 7
The Leicester star was the better of the central midfielders and tried to keep Belgium ticking. Relieved pressure at times with bursts from deep, but was a similarly lukewarm display as against Portugal.
A surprise he was substituted with a good chunk of the second half still to go.
Axel Witsel - 4
Virtually anonymous in the first half as he and Tielemans struggled with the energy from the Italian midfield. Added very little to the attack as well.
Thorgan Hazard - 5
A much quieter outing than the decisive impact he made against Portugal, his uncomfortableness in the left wing-back role was amplified by Chiesa and co. running riot at times.
Jeremy Doku - 8
Very impressive display with his electric pace. The Rennes star won the penalty from Di Lorenzo's push to get Belgium back into the game and was a constant menace to the Italy right-back.
Fired just over late on after more pace to work a shooting space. His selection over Yannick Carrasco more than justified.
Kevin De Bruyne - 7
Another decent performance by the Manchester City star who sets such extremely high standards.
Did break well from his own half to set up attacks in the first half but despite pushing to create something received very little support from those around him.
Romelu Lukaku - 7
Scored a pressure penalty to halve the deficit but the rub of the green didn't go his way at times. Substitute Nacer Chadli's cross just went too high and his goal bound shot was
