It's only a game! Man...

I think football is the worst form of drug - always feel a bad comedown after watching it!

It was Balotelli who won it... Something Rooney couldn't do for England!

Yes, it caught my eye immediately too!

Focus on the feathered things Kestrel and, of course, the sport.

They're all pumped up here for the final tomorrow evening.

ITALIA! ITALIA!

Re: Euro 2012

I fancy Italy tonight, especially if they play like they did against Germany, Spain are good on their day, if they turn up that is

Re: Euro 2012

Nobody could deny Spain the best side in the tournament by quite a distance. Best team there's ever been. Maybe.

Agreed! Spain ran rings round Italy and gave them a real trouncing. We were watching at a friends house -big screen, pizza and prosecco, lots of Italians...they took it well - knew they were out-classed.

Prandelli made some selection mistakes - Chiellini and Cassano weren't fit to be in the team -used his 3 substitutions stupidly because of this and they ended up only having 10 men. Didn't use Diamante and some others who were in great shape....

May find out more insider stuff later this week - Prandelli's brother-in-law has a horse here with us and comes riding most days! He was at the final -no doubt sick as a dog!

Re: Euro 2012

No good looking fer excuses, Manager went wi what he considered his strongest available side, which i happen to agree wi, Spain outclassed n outplayed em,before the injuries made any impact, What Prandelli has achieved wi this Italian side deserves great credit, given recent history.

Re: Euro 2012

What a great match, Spain were really geared up for it, the first thing they did was cut Pirlo out of the game, stop their engine it its tracks then systematically tore um to bits, they've certainly got the right formula, that's 3 major tournaments in a row the first time this has ever happened. Can they make it 4 at the world cup in two years time, I for one wouldn't bet against it

Re: Euro 2012

Italian TV is saying the team were tired and didn't have enough time to recuperate from the last match. They did transfer a lot in a few days. Shame they didn't play as well as they did against Germany -would have been nice to see some goals from them too!

Doubt there wouldn't have been any excuses if Italy had won, they know the score before they set of for a tournament they had 23 players, just like Spain, and how a professional footballer becomes tired after playing 5 matches in three weeks is beyond me, given the financial rewards they receive as well, just wonder how these poor lambs would manage doing a full 40 hours shift at work then turning out on a saturday afternoon for a game
