It's the fact that they resemble England so much that makes me want them to win...
According to The Times, Spain has not beaten Italy at football for 88 years!
come on spain!
I strongly suspect Italy will win of course. Spain will dominate most of the game, but get frustrated, and Italy will nick it at the end or win on penalties.
There is a come on spain thread.

Spain have only played Italy 5 times in the World Cup and European Championships but have failed to win any of the games. The results have been:
1994 World Cup QF 2-1
1988 European Championship group game 1-0
1980 European Championship group game 0-0
1934 World Cup QF 1-1 then 1-0 in the replay
They have played each other a further 22 times and Spain have won 8 times and Italy 6.
Most of these are friendlies. The only victory for Spain in an official tournament was in their first encounter at the 1920 Olympic games consolation tournament.
spain have lost the last three knockout tournament matches they have played on june 22nd. today they can change history.
