Italy vs Spain(1-1)

[Coach]

The promise of Valhalla, makes the Vikings the most arduous of tasks for England. Beat back the Norsemen and its coming home. Italy's aggressive, front-foot boxing, will be met blow for blow, only with fleeter feet. Mancini knows just as Mussolini did before him, mercy is all that remains to be asked for.

[GREENWHITEGREEN]

I beg, make these Italos no come stop football from coming home o!

The English aerial bombardment will do them in. The Lancasters and the Halifaxes are warming up on the runway ...

Hm, na joke I dey joke o! This Italian team is a juggernaut. The Felix Legions of Rome. SPQR. Roma Victrix! Ave!!

It's coming Rome.

I know you are an English man at heart, Pa Ohsee.

That may be so, but I am an ABEGgar in my soul.

[Sleaky72]

Well Done Espana!!
You have nothing to be ashamed of.
My prediction of Italy beating England in the final still lives on!!!

Amen!
Right on the MONEY!!

The English will be licking their chops if they get to the final and meet Italy.

Based on what?

Based on the fact that Italy has began to exhibit fatigue and their defense is beginning to get porous.

Lol. Possession stats: Italy 62% ; England 38%. Who was licking chops and who was fatigued? Hilarious

It was never a contest at all. Apart from that lucky goal England would have suffered tonight moreso if Italy had Spinazzola and others

Rice---Phillips

methinks inglaterra needs to transition to a 4-3-3, as a platform to fully unleash the pace/power of those attacking players...

If you cannot match them for technique and possession in MF, then look to power and application, a la Klopp/LFC
