Euro 2024: Italia v Albania

A win is a win. But the performance was lacking in the second. We should have scored 4

 

That was blatant corruption lmao

 

Take the points. England would have needed their second goal to have been a penalty

 

Also why didn’t Albania get the corner kick at the end ?

 

Spain and Croatia will eat you alive if you play like you did today against a bunch of plumbers from Albania lmfaooo

 

The smug Spanish are beatable.
Italy need to punch them in the mouth.

 

Ya Scamacca needed to do more in that second half. He was way too static at times as were his teammates up front. Need to improve upon this victory and find more offense.

 

Ref clearly has Italian balls in his mouth

 

Italia kind of lucked out....

 

Typical first match in a tournament by Italy. Next match will tell the story.

 

Buddy they just pimp smacked Croatia today 3-0. I don’t think Spain is worried about Italy who struggled against plumbers from Albania

 

I didn’t watch the game and I can guarantee there was no corruption and no one thinks Albania lost because of corruption.

 

Yugoslavia -3 today.
I bet they have sodium free bacon for breakfast after their daily chest x-rays!!

 

Really? We recently played against Spain and the result was a narrow 2-1 loss, so we'll see..

 

We seriously concluding we won because Albania didn’t get a corner that we would have defended. Lol

 

Yeah not in the euro though bud this is a different Spain. I think they’re beatable for sure but yall have to play different next game. You almost choked against Albania. Arguably the worst team in the entire tournament

 

I’m not saying you wouldn’t have won but that was sus.. Also Bastoni should’ve had a penalty against him pulling the jersey of the Albania player in the box..

 

Oh, come on. We had several good scoring opportunities that didn't go in by a hair, including a post hit. What did Albania do? Not much. We had 5 shots on target against 1 by them. Possession 62% v 38%. What game did you watch, that you think Albania almost drew or won or something???

 

Albania is definitely not the worst if you consider their qualification record and beating out Poland and the Czechs.

 

Albania would probably win against Portugal to be honest

 

3pts that's all that matters ... now we can surprise against Spain in a game that will suit us more

 

Albania finished first in qualifying and the two teams below them are in the tournament.

 

Where the trolls all come from?

 

Portugal/Brazil

 

really impressive in the first half. very happy with what I saw. of course we want 3 goals 4 goals but we are the kind of team that wins with 2 always so you can't really complain. without that Di Marco howler it would have been 1-0 maybe 2-0 but it was a game we managed well.
