    I know I’m biased but I don’t want to see this Italy in the final .. counterattacks interspersed with long balls :(


    Chiesa looks as though he’s struggling to walk .

    Why did they bother bringing him? Italy would not enjoy him running at their backline, especially now they are knackered. Bet he wishes he chose Mali.

    Judging how frantic the Spain player was to get that ball back at that throw in, I don’t think they want penalties.

    Would have been hilarious if Spain had subbed on De Gea for the penalties.

    Poor Morata. Didn’t really care who won but was hoping he scored.

    Why are Spain not in red?

    They knew Donnarumma is superior to their keeper.

    Looked like he was being sent to the gallows when he was walking up to the spot. Maybe he shouldn't have been one of the first 5.

    He’s a real good player - I’ve no idea why he’s not very popular with many for some reason

    I just hope he and his family are not subjected to disgusting abuse again! Unfortunately that was the first thing I thought off when he missed which should never happen.

    It's because he misses a disproportionate amount of relatively easy chances. His off the ball work is top notch.

    I like to speculate about Uniform Combos.

    My theory is since Italy was the designated Home team they chose to wear all dark colors.
    That means Spain could not wear their Navy Blue shorts or socks. Wearing red shirts with white shorts and socks would have been weird and something they never do so they must have decided to go all the way with the white

    For what it’s worth I think that Denmark will give us a tougher game than Italy ..

    I see us beating Italy 3:0 or 4:1 of something ...whereas I can actually see Denmark beating us ..

    Apparently Pedri was voted Man of Match and and also remarkably had 100% pass completion
