There's probably at least six middle managers providing sign off for one minimum wager at every decision.

[Baron Greenback]

Is it me or the ref on Italy tackles from behind pushing the Austria players and winning the ball no free kick for Austria but when other way down Italy all ways seem to get better deal.

[Murph7355]

Austria look like they're wearing lead boots. But Italy failing to find any way through.

Italy looking nowhere near as good as in the group stages.

[TCEvo]

E.T incoming. Italy have offered nothing this half.

Would appear so.

PL/FA need a kick up the arse for next season, with the European's showing them how to do it.

There you go. Nicked it.

[TCEvo]

Quality goal.

[vonuber]

Fantasically taken, but he was completely unmarked to receive the pass.

Really? Took it on his head, touch & volley in. Pretty good IMO.

Perhaps by the low standards of this tournament it was good, but in reality it was a bit of a scrappy finish.

Great movement from Italians. A feature of their play.

I must be missing something, I thought he controlled it very well followed by a clinical finish.
What was scrappy about the finish ?

[julian987R]

they'll score off this free kick

The English national team certainly hasn’t won enough big games to consider themselves an elite nation. But then again Italy didn’t qualify for the last World Cup…
