I have zero respect for Del Bosque, racist cunt.

Err wasn't that Aragones?
Was it ? Maybe I've got them mixed up. Highly likely in fact.
Conte is a great manager. Been very impressed by Italy in this game and his approach
The 3-5-2 and his results in Europe with Juve are the biggest questionmarks for me when taking over Chelsea.
They're all the fucking same
Brilliant by the Italians, good riddance to Spain. It was a teensy bit like watching us at times last season - high pressing, very high tempo first half, but missing too many chances, then a second half when the energy levels started to dip and it could easily have gone the wrong way. But a great professional performance, as always with Italy, very smart.
Spanish players have been perfecting that art for a decade or more. Feck them off.
That's what I don't get. 5 Liverpool players and all these cunts on here wanting them to lose.
I concur
Wow, game of the tournament so far for me. Italy gave 110% for this game, players were totally exhausted, but they showed lots of character to come through the tough period and the subs helped to bring fresh energy and finally put the nail in the Spanish coffin. That was such a smart cross-field pass from Insigne that helped create the 2nd goal.
But I have to come back to Conte – the way he managed to shut down Iniesta and Fabregas by playing Giaccherini and Florenzi very high up the pitch (I think in Itally this position is called mezzala, which means half-winger – I don't think any other country has quite that role) was just classic and the most convincing way to counter the Spanish tiki-taca that I've seen in recent years. Whenever Italy attacked, they had big numbers of players in and around the box, which is not what you think as a typical Italy. Great stuff.
Were there some reports that Klopp was interested in De Sciglio? He looked very calm and solid at LB, although he is right-footed.

Who's the racist now!
By mixing two Spanish managers up ? Dickhead.
Had backed the Italians handsomely (a tenner).
They play like a team and have a great manager combined with the fact I've never had any confidence is rather new looking Spain team served in the same old bottles (their all possession-based slightly predictable tactics).
Italians will prob not beat Germany but they've been a very nice surprise for me.
