The Euros Thread

Game on...

 

... The Itallian Gods didn´t like my words so they had to teach me wrong - instantly.

 

Wow.... Italy lead.....

Cracking finish

 

Get in! First incisive attempt on goal works, great counter.

Now watch the Italians revert to type…..because they can.

 

Completely out of the blue. Fantastic counter attack and brilliant finish.
Spain don't have that in front of goal.

 

Another good break from Italy and they score. Immobile too slow but it breaks to Chiesa who scores a peach.

 

Really good finish. 11 men behind the ball now for Italy.

 

Chiesa doesn't do ordinary goals....

 

What a miss!

 

Another Spain chance goes begging....

 

So unlucky until now - I hope Spain will do their job to earn the additional 30 minutes.

 

It's been their game plan.

What a miss by Olazabal.
He really is **** and Spain are awful in front of goal.
Italy sitting very deep.

 

One team trying to play football and scoring goals, one team just about avoiding any risks at all. Changed my mind and now in favour of Spain.

 

Spain have survived for years without a natural goal scorer, since Fernando Torres lost his touch, but they could do with one now.

Donnarumma’s distribution under pressure reminds me of Rob Green,

 

There's another on the break here for Italy.
Spain won't score if they're still there tomorrow.

 

The Italian keeper's distribution is Green-like.

 

He's poor.
Italy on the other hand probably have the best keeper in the tournament.

Edit:
Mis-read.
I really rate the Italian keeper.

 

He is Italy’s keeper. ……..good except for distribution with an opposing player close to him.

 

Spain waisting their few chances but still to succeed.

 

Yes, mis read it.
I really rate him.
