    Simply confirmation that we will need to transform into another team again to have any success at the Euros.

    No PK

    The ball had already gotten away. These RAI commentary is demented.

    They are just used to our IDIOTIC officiating that always calls Fouls and PK's for simply breathing. For Referees around the world that is NEVER a PK. Ukraine weren't even protesting.

    He dove yes, clearly. Contact by Cristante, clearly.

    BUT the football was long gone away from the player. Only a PK in Italy because our Officiating is horrible and soft.

    This commentator keeps talking about the episode in the box where VAR didn't even review and you could see the simulation on replay.

    We're in.

    What suffering. Complete technical/tactical collapse in the second half after a positive first. Spalletti got us over the line. Now he has a lot more work to do

    Probably forgot that it wasn't Kane that was involved in the foul.

    Safe to say Bonucci is not returning and Buongiorno is in.

    He said that it isn't in the Ukranian character to protest the way they did on that episode, the inference being it was a penalty. Then he said that if it were the other way around, we'd never hear the end of it.

    I'm sorry, but how long did we have to hear the English protesting a call in the final where Chiellini was actually carded? ******** this guy.

    Commentator probably forgot that simulations only get reviewed and awarded to Pengland by Fifa, typically via Sterling simulation.

    I'm tough on Scamacca and tonight was a good example of why. Elite physical tools and talent but he just mentally is not there. Lots of jogging, mental distractions, sloppy play, lack of focus...he needs to clean that up.

    Probably recently saw a spot on his body that needs a tattoo and couldn't get his mind off dreaming about it.

    In fairness, none of our strikers other than Chiesa are up to snuff. It seemingly doesn't matter if it's Scamacca, Raspadori, Berardi, Zaniolo or Immobile. When we need someone to make a difference, they don't show up.
