Italy won the FIP XIII European Championship after narrowly beating Austria by 6 goals to 5. The win came in the last seconds of play, thanks to a goal scored by Francisco Macloughlin. The victory gave the Azzuri their second European Championship title; they first won the competition back in 2018, at Villa A Sesta.

The FIP European Championship is one of the most competitive events on the international calendar. This edition was hosted by Ayala and Los Pinos. The tournament, which grows every year, also provides a great platform for several up-and-coming European players.
