It was the longest night yet in Euro 2012 for the crowds in York’s pubs and bars - and it ended with England fans singing the blues.

When Italy hit the post just a few minutes into the Euro 2012 quarter-final against Italy, the fans knew it was going to be a nerve-jangling match.

Both they and the Italians living in York hoped it wouldn’t go into extra time.

But the lack of goals in normal time meant the fourth quarter-final became the first to go to penalties, with eventual victory for Italy and misery for England.
