This one is tough to call. I just don't want the Italians to come back and win this tournament.

i really hope spain wins this, i don't want italy to come far after being nearly knocked out. and because they are italians. as johan cruijff said: the italians can't win from you but you can lose from them. and holland-spain may be one of the matches with the most goals in it, since both have an amazing attack but a less good defence

I hope Spain wins, and i really think they will.

They have been playing the better and have a stronger team, Italy are missing Pirlo and Gattuso and i think it will cost them the game.

I really want Italy to get knocked out by the spainards.

It will be decided in penalties.

I think Spain will dominate this one despite no having beat Italy in 88 years. Their midfield just won't lose the ball with Italy missing Pirlo and Gattuso.

I expect a game quite similar to the one that just finished half an hour ago.

Same, but hopefully Spain will win.

Italy.

I ment quite smiliar to Germany vs Portugal in terms of who people see as slight favorites (Portugal, Spain), style of play (Germany=Italy, Portugal=Spain) and the winner (Italy, Germany).

do not insult Spain by saying the play the same style of soccer as Portugal. Spain is far more team oriented and passes far more capably.

As for your prediction, why are you supporting ugly soccer over aesthetic soccer?

How did you get the idea I support ugly over aesthetic? I don't, it's just the way I think things will play out.

I would like nothing more than Italy crashing out in shameful manner. :biggrin:

You really took Golos post the wrong way, he is saying people want Portugal and Spain to progress because they play more entertaining football.

He didnt say Spain and Portugal play the same football.

He isnt supporting Italy or Germany, he is just being a realist.

Observe dude.

im hoping for Spain to embaress the Italians so like a 3-0/4-1 type of game but unfortunately the Italians always do some gay shit to get lucky and some1 gets injured,some1 else gets carded, so on and the Italians score a shitty goal and in the end it goes to penalties. I hope not at least

At least Portugal knows how to win.

Post by: zizou871 on Jun 21, 2008, 04:58: PM
yeah the spanish pass more but sometimes its too much.  someone needs to shoot eventually.  I don't know about this one.  History is against Spain.  The italians are missing a lot of players including pirlo, who may not have done much this tournament, but he'll be missed. 

I think it will be Spain's day.  2-0

Puyol made Toni look like shit and the Italians played for penalties. Well thats what they get for it. Spain deserved it and got it.

Spain Russia will be best game of the tourney - mark my words
Title: Re: EURO Quarter Final: Italy vs Spain [P+R]
Post by: emogirl on Jun 22, 2008, 08:30: AM
Agreed, though I think they would've won, if they had Pirlo and Gattuso.
Title: Re: EURO Quarter Final: Italy vs Spain [P+R]
Post by: TheGodEmperor on Jun 22, 2008, 02:24: PM
YESSSSSSS Spain is through and Casillas is a national hero, mark my words.

And Toni looked stupid out there. Spain had the vast majority of ball possession too.
Title: Re: EURO Quarter Final: Italy vs Spain [P+R]
Post by: zizou871 on Jun 22, 2008, 04:24: PM
Spain always has ball possession.  About time those Italians were stopped.  I don't understand how anyone can be a fan of that kind of football. it's sooooo boring, it makes every game boring.  Even against teams like Spain who are skilled and make games exciting

spain played just as boring aswell with both of the teams performances in that match i wouldnt be suprised if Russia beat them by a lot of goals.

i cant see how you can say that when your french and they were awful in all there games.

im dissapointed with italy though i can see germany winning it now.
Title: Re: EURO Quarter Final: Italy vs Spain [P+R]
Post by: manutd. on Jun 24, 2008, 01:57: AM
Both teams played boring, but Italy played for the penalty kicks in extra time which was annoying.

Pirlo and Gattuso would have made a HUGE difference to set up Toni, he looked miserable.
Title: Re: EURO Quarter Final: Italy vs Spain [P+R]
Post by: Adi on Jun 24, 2008, 07:25: AM
What a shit game. Toni was pretty crap this tournament. I hope it doesn't carry over into the season. I also hope the refferrees don't get onto him now for his slight diving. I noticed that he would fall too much throughout the season in Germany. I think he's exposed now. He'll have to stay on his feet more.

As far as Spain is concerned, they have the Barcelona problem of passing too much, not being direct enough, and not crossing the ball. They keep coming back inside from wide position too much.
