Final: Spain - Italy

[FCBarca]

I'm really surprised Llorente hasn't even been given a chance

No one is quite sure what Del Bosque has been doing...He'll either be proven a genius or confirmed an idiot

 

[jeremija]

Negredo, Llorente & Torres...But I suspect it will not strictly be 3 #9s

ž

Can you actually call Torres a player? :troll:

JK, those three guys are crap compared to Balotelli.

 

[Visca]

He probably means like Iniesta, Cesc, Silva as forwards

If it ain't broke. . .

Forza Italy! must win

 

[Fitzy]

Cannot wait for this game. Should be a classic

 

[Coasterfreek]

Anyone but Spain. Forza Italia for this one.

 

[Kraits]

Same... Anyone but Spain... ITALIA GOGOGO

Italy should start with the same lineup they used against Germany but replace Montolivo with Motta. Chiellini is never fantastic as LB but for the sake of the team he should play LB once more - Bonucci and Barzagli have both been impressive enough to maintain their places while Balzaretti was top class against Germany and is much better than Maggio, even when played out of position.

For the sake of Serie A ... Forza Italia !

Montolivo played better than Motta at this very Euro. And he provided a good assist for Balotelli. Really can't see a reason, why Montolivo should be off for this game.

A beautiful day to write history

While i want an italy win, i feel a spain victory here. Scandalous and a red for an italian player. That's my gut. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Was just watching a HL of the 2008 final to build up for this match

Spain had 70% the same player. They were not that tiki-taka back then from what I saw/remember.

But the MOST IMPORTANT THING, they were a classy team who didn't fucking whine. Xavi took a rough tackle from Ballack early in the game and he didn't whine, didn't even fall down, just stuttered a bit and took it like a man. Made me remember why I had a soft spot for Barcelona last time.

I have a soft spot for barca... My ass

Forza Italia, andiamo ragazzi!
