    1-1. I'm saying we losing, but I've thought that before and we ended up winning.

    Yeah they had your number there for 20 minutes in the second half.
    The red card changed everything now Switzerland can't afford to play like they did before that.

    Shame Switzerland didn't cause the upset. Spain deserved to win after their performance in ET but it's still nice to see the underdog do so well.

    Italy Belgium game looking a bit more eventful!

    EZ W for Italy. Told you guys. Belgium is a quarter final team only and that's it.

    Spain is next.

    super tough, anything less than a euro championship is a disappointment for England at this point IMO lol @ home with 1 if not the best squad you have had in the last 20/30years?

    the Denmark story is amazing...they are really fun to watch...and underdogs

    give Spain a chance versus Italy? Spain has not really impressed me...barely beat Switzerland in the penalties

    Yeah I can’t see England losing this at all, especially now Kane has gained his confidence in an England shirt & playing at their home ground. They seem unstoppable, plus they’ve got a 2nd squad arguably on par with their starters. It’s still surreal to see England playing at their projected ability as they’re usually below it. I think this year might finally be ours to take.

    I think Spain have played poor this Euros, for their capabilities, they have to bring something new to tame the beast that is Italy. I just hope the Italians play ethical this time as they’ve been diving & time-wasting quite a lot in this tournament, bad sportsmanship but brilliant players, which frustrates me because they don’t need to play them silly games to win. I was especially ashamed at the antics against Belgium.

    Play ethical? This isn't ballet. Everybody wastes time at the end of a game, literally there is no team that doesn't do it when they lead with only one goal. We like it or not, this is part of football.

    I agree with you here. Spain just passes the ball around, their defense is not good. Morata is not in form so yeah if England gets lucky and draw Spain in the final, Ez W.

    Me personally, is not that I support Italy, but I can put that aside and say that England will be a tough opponent in the final if it comes down to that, but I believe Italy is just a bit stronger then them as a team.

    Of course they have their chance. Is not like Italy is playing a small team. They played poorly but they have a good squad they can turn into beasts with no problem.

    Strong teams like that can play poorly against small teams but turn the tables against bigger opponents.
