Spain vs Italy

[friedaweed]

I think Spain are passing the ball about quite nicely. Lover that ball from Alonso to the edge of the box.
Iniesta looks good

It's ok, I understand that the Scots need a bit of attention over these next few weeks!

Who are you calling a sweaty sock? This week my Irish half is up front

 

[Voley]

Needs a goal to liven things up a bit now dunnit?

Honestly, I have no idea what you are, I was just going off your photo in your avatar!

 

[friedaweed]

Fucking great save

 

[Voley]

That was pretty close!

 

[CyberRose]

Casillas has been the busier of the two keepers despite Spain's possession!

It's all right mate. Some cunt on here called me a scouser the other day

Good thread this though

Have they not heard of strikers in Spain - FFS!

Euro 1964 fast facts

• Marcelino scored Spain's winner in the final when he beat the great Lev Yashin late on with a stooping header
• Denmark's Ole Madsen was the top scorer with seven goals
• Spain midfielder Luis Suarez went on to coach his country at the 1990 World Cup

Theyd be better with Torres on imho. Italy looked more like scoring first half.

 

[articul8]

Definitely need someone up front - Barca had same problem this year once Villa got injured - and they had Messi.

 

[Dandred]

Not a great game but really enjoying it.

 

[Riklet]

Not exactly been on the edge of my seat so far...

Some good saves though. I get the impression Spain were thinking it'd be a bit easier.

 

[JimW]

Good contest I reckon. Spain do look a bit lackadaisical on the final approach, almost like they don't expect Italy to defend as well as they do.

 

[starfish]

Erm, man on Mario.

 

[Voley]

Balotelli looked half asleep then.

 

[CyberRose]

Game on!

 

[Voley]

Yay! Hopefully this'll liven up the last half hour.

Spain paying the price for not playing a striker. Hijos des putas.

Bit of encouragement, that's what was needed.

[Mr.Bishie]

Just about to text me old man to say what a dull game it was - two goals in quick succession - game on!!

 

[JimW]
