Schmain simply haven't made enough of their chances so far, that's for sure

Yeah, good share of possession, have looked like they were about to do things with that possession a few times and then bad crosses, bad finishes, etc.

 

[Preston]

It has been their Achilles heel for a couple years now. Have scored a lot this tourny but they were helped with lucky bounces, own goals etc.

Still lots of time tho so I'll shuddup

 

[Preston]

Shut up Presto you dirty wop

Not too comfortable being the favorites going into this one, boys. Spain is the first team we face that will be able to challenge our possession advantage and make us chase a bit. Spinnazzola being out really hurts as he's one of the few guys on the team without a great backup, and his creation on the left has been crucial. I'm nervous.

Why are you saying “our possession advantage”? As the biggest Habs fan on this forum, pretty sure you cheer for ?

Eye-ties will be lucky to touch the ball at this point. Hard to chase the ball for 120 mins,

Wenger called it sterile domination, or something like that.

 

[lecoqsportif]

Italy probably wins if this goes to PKs.

 

[Killer93]

FORZAAaaaa

 

[MindzEye]

Cheeky bastard

 

[lecoqsportif]

Spain had to press their advantage in ET, Azzurri were dead on their feet. Once it went to PKs Donnarumma >>>>

 

[Preston]

Schmain. Never in doubt baby

 

[CH1]

Easy peasy

 

[zeke]

That was undeserved.

But the vets just outclassed the kids in that shootout.

 

[CH1]

Spain with the xGF supremacy

If Italy loses in the finals the rest of the tournament is going to be erased from my memory and I'll be miserable until they win again.




Is what I'd say if I wasn't enjoying the fuck out of this ride #JustHappyToBeHere

Italy were completely dominated, but I'll take it..........

What are your memories of euro 2012 and world cup 1994?

I was a wee little lad in 94 and it was honestly special to me. Watching the games in Italy outside with family was awesome. Baggio made me cry my balls off but it is what it is. Special memories!

2012 was cool too for different reasons. Big underdogs in the finals and Balotelli vs Germany was special.
