The tension was palpable as each team took turns to step up and convert their spot kicks. The crowd at the Stadio Olimpico held their breath as Almunia and his teammates watched anxiously from the sidelines. But when it was their turn, Almunia stepped forward with unwavering determination. The Spanish goalkeeper had already saved two penalties during the shootout, and his teammates looked to him for inspiration.
