Italy had a great performance. Also this is why we didn’t keep Spinazzola…guy is very talented but just can’t stay healthy…about 40 apps in 3 years. So got the people crying wanting him it’s a good thing we are not stuck with another injury prone player.
I feel horrible for Spinazzola, but your analysis is spot on. I hope Pellegrini will be a good surprise.
37 anni ad agosto. Mancini lo ha aspettato fino alla fine perché quando c'è da usare le maniere forti, quando c'è da battagliare, lui non si tira mai indietro. Giorgio Chiellini, MONUMENTALE
Well here we go…Italy vs Spain and England vs Denmark. Semis are all set. We play on Tuesday noon PST.
Much to everyone's surprise. It was probably the best PK of them all. Very well struck. I feel truly terrible for Morata. If it wasn't for him, that game doesn't go to penalties. 1 more game Italy, I kind of hope it is against England.
Morata giveth and Morata taketh away. FORZA! Can you imagine this squad with an actual #9? Where is Bobo when you need him?
I can't imagine the range of emotion Alvaro Morata went through. Hero to goat in minutes. I hope he can get over it.
It can be argued (easily) that without his goal, there are no PK's. I feel sorry for him, but 1. the best team won 2. I feel happier for the result
We have a date with England this Sunday. I am generally concerned about our defense because it plainly sucks and Sterling might have a field day. We have been awful in that regard. Hopefully Mancini has the team focused.
