These are the years of Germany. After the world title conquered in 2014 by the senior national team, the German under-21 team also conquers the European Championship: with a goal from Weiser in the first half, the young Teutonics overcome the favorites Spain, which had eliminated Italy in the semifinals.
The "Rojita", favorite in the prediction on the eve as led by established champions of the caliber of Saul of Atletico Madrid and Asensio of Real Madrid (but there is also, among others, Deulofeu this year at Milan), misfires : the Spaniards don't seem to be in great athletic condition and have to leave the title to the same age Germans, who had lost against Italy 1-0 in the qualifying round, with goals from Bernardeschi.
For Germany it is the second under-21 title after that of 2009, while Spain had recently won the 2011 and 2013 editions. At the top of the overall ranking there is always Italy, which has won 5 titles, last in 2004. Spain fails to secure the match and stops at 4 trophies.
