mikeyp102 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 No di Rossi is a big loss for Italy. Still can't call this one though. Germany should win, but Italy have been tactically awesome all tournament Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Albert Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 I love my country england and very proud to be british, but that italian national anthem and the passion its pumped out with is breathtaking and makes me very envious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Actually the level of diving in this tournament has been the lowest I've seen I think. The refs have done the right thing by just ignoring it and letting the play go on so the player has little option but to get up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Bonucci is just so good! Can't be many more elegant and calm cb's in the world. So comfortable with the ball and better vision than most midfielders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
