Arrivederci, it’s one on one! Official Euro 2020 (2021) Thread

Shaw is man of the match so far. They've had a few opportunities to feed Sterling on 3v3 breaks and stuff but the last pass has always been lacking

Does Italy not have a pacey attacking player on the bench? Someone who could play on the left wing and put insigne in the middle

berardi, belotti

Grealish is going to come in and end this match

You mean Saka or Sancho?

 

[FakeNews]

Italy is really missing Spinazzola. huge loss

England not looking shaky. Look fairly comfortable tbh. I don’t think they can keep that low block whole of second half but England haven’t lost their shape or look panicked apart form when Chiesa got past rice.

They weren’t being defensive initially tho. They were pressing high up the pitch. But they can’t keep that intensity all game. So expect them to start the 2nd half pressing high again

Idk about you but I thought it was a good match.

The final 15 minutes of the Copa was very exciting..

Good point! Can see England pushing for more again first 15 mins

 

[Leao2005]

They are keeping two on insigne at all times

Ref's been great so far

Yup, been really good the whole tourney in general with letting the game flow. Not fussy af like the pl

 

[ThrobbingHood]

England have to go for a second. They don’t want this going to extra time/penalties.

 

[The Wall Is Undefeated!]

Gareth Southgate is the best England manager since Sir Alf Ramsey.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

tbh italy has been sloppy. some of that due to England defense but they aren't stringing shyt together as you'd normally see on the counter.

An Italian team that doesn't play good D

Hard to play good D with a stripper in the heart of your midfield. No Kante to hold his hands through the game.
