    Ive lumped on Sweden or a draw. Italy will not be as good 2 games on the trot, although definitely a good move to drop Darmian.

    Can't see Sweden scoring if Italy's defence play like they did against Belgium.

    Fancy Italy to build on their good start, Sweden didn't impress last time out

    Don't write the Swedes off, they knocked Italy out in the group stage back in 2004. So they can do it.

    Despite that, I think it'll be a draw or Italy win.

    They're nervous as fook about Ibra and it's just such an Italy thing to be brilliant one game then mediocre the next.

    The first half was a bit meh.

    Sweden looking the better side. Knew writing them off was a bad idea.

    Ref needs to man up and give a penalty for all the holding at the corners.

    This Italy v Sweden game is doing its best to rival or even beat the Germany v Poland game from last night.

    It was always going to, a draw suits both teams so a cagey match was always on the cards. if either of them lose they're at real risk again. Plus, as I said earlier - Italy will never play so well 2 games on the trot from the start of a tournament.

    Italy should get The Pharaoh on.

    Going to go back to my harping on about how poo a 24 team tournament is.......like last night, a point works for both teams with teams seemingly content to play it safe with the 4 best 3rd place finishes as a nice safety net

    Apparently Sweden haven't had a single shot on target so far this tournament.

    I hope the Czechs, Croats, Spaniards and Turks liven things up after these past two matches.
