pong Posted June 26, 2021 Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 unbelievable, 11 italians managed to finish the game even though all of them died at least once during the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted June 26, 2021 Report Share Posted June 26, 2021 This game had shades of Italy vs Australia round of 16 in the 2006 World Cup. Italy scrapped through some rugged resistance from the aussies, but we know what happened after that. Hope it bodes well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott. Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 I’m hurting this morning. That’s our biggest defeat in 9 years ffs. I don’t mind losing and going out but we’re so much better than that. The Danes have this spirit behind them with what happened with Eriksen, maybe it’s meant to be that they go deep in the tournament, I thought they were fantastic yesterday, really solid at the back and they moved the ball about brilliantly, so impressed with them and I think they’ll beat the Dutch in the Quarters tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elisa Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Just felt like everything was against Wales yesterday, no Welsh fans allowed, travelled thousands of miles more than Denmark and the referee made some dodgy decisions that didn't go the way of Wales. Fair play to Denmark, they deserved the win, but I hope we'll see you at the World Cup next year! 45 minutes ago, Scott. said: Congrats yesterday. Tough game but your class showed in the end. Two of my favourite goals in last night's game. Chiesa's was a work of art but that very low header in to the net from an impossible angle was also a thing to behold.

Roux Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Why doesn't Chiesa start? Italy's best player imo. Guy is dynamite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted June 27, 2021 Report Share Posted June 27, 2021 Mancini thinks that Chiesa is better coming off the bench to change the dynamics (seen many times last season with Juve) and that Berardi offers much more earlier on in the games, but he should start next match.

Was a hell of a strike pal, I’m frustrated watching you lot though, you’ve completely underachieved with this ‘golden generation’ That side is ageing and fast, it seems like they only just burst on the scene and now most are in their 30s or approaching it. Scary how quick time goes. Kdb is starting to pick up injuries now, Eden Hazard is completely finished, he can’t even get in shape, Mertens is barely getting a kick and is mid 30s, the defence are fucking ancient, Witsel looks an old man in midfield. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Completely agree with you. We should have taken advantage of this team years ago. Will have to see how far they can go this championship, but I'm not too optimistic given the teams we are going to face. Yesterday we got lucky for sure. Let's see if it will run out... Was kinda hoping for a Belgium - Holland finale but they fucked up royally yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal Posted June 28, 2021 Report Share Posted June 28, 2021 Even though i'm german i have a soft spot for the swiss team. They get so much shit from the media here, i'm super happy they played such a strong game and get them to shut up. Incredible games today, i'm exhausted lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
