Congratulations on the victory over Italy, Spain was unstoppable.
In Portugal, the summer solstice is not celebrated and it is not a national holiday. It is likely that some people may celebrate it, but it is not a cultural tradition. Instead, this month there are two major popular festivals: Santo António in Lisbon and São João in Porto. These are municipal holidays and are the two largest popular festivals in the country.
Thank you! It was a good game for Spain, but we should have won by more difference, many wasted opportunities.
I understand, I didn't know about those festivals, are they religious festivals?

Spain should have scored more, for sure. They hit the post a few times and the Italian goalkeeper made some great saves.
Roughly speaking, they are popular festivals in honor of the saints.
