giacherrini's been really good too so far.
― sonderangerbot, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:20 (fourteen years ago)
Balotelli looks very accomplished in this side
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:20 (fourteen years ago)
and cassano has made the best runs
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:23 (fourteen years ago)
ooh gutsy by de rossi
― sonderangerbot, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:24 (fourteen years ago)
thought fabregas? could have turned and shot there
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:32 (fourteen years ago)
poor from fabregas. couple of turnovers high up the pitch in spain's favour last couple of mins.
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:34 (fourteen years ago)
they called a foul on balotelli there?
― mizzell, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:35 (fourteen years ago)
oof
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:36 (fourteen years ago)
if italy were playing 2 CBs one of those balls would have got thru by now i reckon.
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:40 (fourteen years ago)
I'm finding those tunnels in the corners very distracting. I keep thinking the cameraman's put his finger into the frame.
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:41 (fourteen years ago)
craig burley calling someone ugly? glass houses etc
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:42 (fourteen years ago)
i swear the spain corners are designed for the clearing header to fall to iniesta on the left corner of the box.
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:44 (fourteen years ago)
alonso has benn average, at best.
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:45 (fourteen years ago)
nice save casillas
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:46 (fourteen years ago)
loved that spontaneous 'ooh' for Balotelli
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:46 (fourteen years ago)
iniesta has been great
― mizzell, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:46 (fourteen years ago)
omg what a great goal that would've been after balotelli's backheel
― sonderangerbot, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:47 (fourteen years ago)
casillas save looked much better in the replay, much less straight at him than it seemed to me in real time.
― Merdeyeux, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:47 (fourteen years ago)
This is my kind of game, I'm all tensed up here. Best avoid the punditry I think.
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:48 (fourteen years ago)
iniesta and de rossi best 2 players so far.
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:48 (fourteen years ago)
agh that mars bar ad.
― Merdeyeux, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:50 (fourteen years ago)
Jonathan Wilson @jonawilsThis is too much! A back three against a false nine?
― mizzell, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:53 (fourteen years ago)
haha
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:56 (fourteen years ago)
ha
always thought the conventional wisdom was a back 3 would struggle against a lone striker cos they would have 2 free men. today they have all 3 with no-one to mark!
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 16:57 (fourteen years ago)
Michael Cox @Zonal_MarkingWell, this should be interesting. Do Italy have three spare men at the back, or none? Enjoy...
― mizzell, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:01 (fourteen years ago)
was strachan just subtitled there?
― it looks like something rupert the bear would wear (Algerian Goalkeeper), Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:01 (fourteen years ago)
That'd be some fast typing
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:02 (fourteen years ago)
was there a kick out off the ball from busquets there?
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:04 (fourteen years ago)
Loving this so far. And loving Italy, Spain's way of playing seems to be past the expiration date tbh.

Sergi looks very comfortable higher up the pitch than he normally gets to play for club, I bet we'll see more of this in years to come.
― boxall, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:06 (fourteen years ago)
nah, they just haven't got a frwd they rate. If villa was fit he'd be in.xp
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:07 (fourteen years ago)
ooh, creating chances now.
great slo-mo there
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:08 (fourteen years ago)
That's amazing reverse footage on that replay
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:08 (fourteen years ago)
dawdle
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:09 (fourteen years ago)
Ridiculous from Balotelli
― Ismael Klata, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:10 (fourteen years ago)
lol balotelli
― it looks like something rupert the bear would wear (Algerian Goalkeeper), Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:10 (fourteen years ago)
o mario.
― Merdeyeux, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:10 (fourteen years ago)
hahaha what was that
― sonderangerbot, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:10 (fourteen years ago)
Balotelli! That was ridiculous. He just stopped moving.

clueless
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:10 (fourteen years ago)
spent so much time looking at casillas forgot to shoot.
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:11 (fourteen years ago)
iker hypnotised him
Esp. odd as he's so good at taking penalty shots decisively w/o overthinking.
― boxall, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:12 (fourteen years ago)
di natale!!
― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:12 (fourteen years ago)

― pandemic, Sunday, 10 June 2012 17:13 (fourteen years ago)
