Match Day Thread EURO 2020(1?)

I’m learning Italian, so will get there soon!

 

If that's a red you might as well just rule out sliding tackles altogether (just seen the Swiss one).

 

Yep I learned it totally phonetically first, not a clue what it meant (Well I knew it was Brothers of Italy, Italy is awake [or awoken]) but the rest was just words.

Once you google translate it and see the meaning, it is as passionate as they sing it! https://www.classicfm.com/discover-...ional-anthems/italian-national-anthem-lyrics/

 

The red was utter bollocks. He got the ball cleanly, cleared out the player with the follow through. No studs showing, just leg to leg contact, which as far as I know is allowed in a tackle. Not even a foul.

 

Boomo

 

1-0 Italy

 

He's OFF!

 

Offside

 

Italy 1-0 Belgium, but it looks off.

 

Or not …..offside

 

Heo iso offo

 

Good job you know the language so well!

 

My mother taught me so wello

 

This guy taught me

 

It may be the wine, but can't get that song outta ma head now

 

Hmm, from an England point of view I'd like Italy to win this. They're a good side but don't have Lukaku or de Bruyne in it.

 

Cracking game so far!

 

The pair of them together are completely terrifying!

 

Chelsea fans must be having some serious regrets!

 

I dread to think what Lukaku would fetch if Inter were stupid enough to sell him!
