    Okay now we are at the pointy end.

    Tears in Rome. Joy, or mourning?

    Joy.

    One day FIFA will do a translation of the offside rule for the Italians.

    I think things have flattered Spain, so far in this tournament.

    I fancy Italy for the 1-0.

    Spain have made Italy look a bit average / flat track bullies. They've not had a shot on goal yet, let alone on target

    Coming out for balls he shouldn’t and leaving the balls he should, hopeless.

    Nice goal, but looks like the Italy keeper handballs it when he rolls it out to start the move...

    You know you have a special keeper when he'd rather use his knees hockey style than use his hands. 😉

    Interesting how the German referee not buying any diving and acting keeps the game flowing.

    I can't decide whether Spain are revealing themselves to be better than we thought or the Italians are being shown to be over rated.

    I don't think England's defenders are good enough on the ball to dictate the tempo of the game against either of these if we get through. Especially Spain.

    Why is Groucho Marx helping the Italians on the touchline?

    Spain seem to be unbelievably fit. Again.

    I wonder if Ferrari will ever release a Fuentes in Spain? 😉
