Wonderful, wonderful goal. Good late subs by Spalletti, and nice to see Nick Beans back after his betting ban.
I always find Italians to be very nice when I go there on holiday. But they bullied us out of the last Euros. Very torn.
Italy could be a QF opponent I think? Very beatable imo although would require a massive improvement obviously.
Love Italy (though they’re a bit **** currently). But we lost that game against them because Southgate.
Correct. If we win the group and actually make it to the QF then we will play winner of Switzerland vs Italy. But italy have been crap all tournament, I fancy the Swiss to win that tie.
Croatia will be praying for us to find our form - they need us to hammer Slovenia to keep their hopes alive.
Croatia were seconds away from a fairly favourable L16 match vs Switzerland. But instead I believe they now need: (i) us to beat Slovenia exactly 3-0, or by any 4+ score, and (ii) Denmark to beat Serbia by any score, or Serbia to beat Denmark exactly 3-0, or by any 4+ score, and (iii) Portugal to beat Georgia by any score, and (iv) Turkey to beat Czech by any score.
