Poor England Laughing

I'm following the Italian team which is doing surprisingly well (unlike the grown ups who are playing bad). Some good talents in this competition, as usual Razz

Yeah, same here. This Norwegian U-21 is actually enjoyable to watch, which stands in contrast to the regular team. The dutch are looking sharp, while Spain youngsters does exactly as the grownups do. Getting by the group stages with 1-0's late in the games before they end up winning the whole thing in the end Twisted Evil

Wow England lost even to us...
Gaining 4 points in this kind of tournament is really not bad for us, especially when considering that we got a 2:2 tie with Norway with a goal they've scored in the last minute.

So, semi finals on saturday

Italy - Netherlands
Spain - Norway



Spain showed their class today with 3-0 against Netherlands and 5-0 in the group total.

I don't quite get why Netherlands changed the whole team before this match though. They needed only one point to get Norway in the semi's, which on paper is a lot better than meeting Italy.

This tournament is entertaining as long as you ignore some of the blatant defensive howlers that you get in every game so far. Defensive concentration is based on experience I guess

We've been saved by the trusty ugly catenaccio..as always Laughing. I'm sorry for Norway, there was nothing to do really, the Spanish team is just too strong for everybody. The final is probably going to be another walk in the park for them, just like last year :>

Italy - Spain 2-4

Italy was unlucky here. Second goal against was another defensive howler unfortunately. However, the first penalty shouldn't have been given in my view. It looked like a inch perfect tackle to me, even if he also got the man afterwards.

These two events made the match almost impossible for Italy to win. That said, the best team won the tournament(again). What the spaniards are doing seems to be on a whole other planet than the rest of us

So congrats to spain, entertaining tournament this have been. Future looks bright Very Happy

Yeah, aside from the mistakes that was inevitable Okay . They have so much quality with Isco, Thiago, Illarramendi, all the other barcaboys and an experienced GK like De Gea.

I don't know if things would have gone differently with El Shaarawy, Balotelli and De Sciglio (who are all playing the Confederations Cup) but still, our midfield and defense were incredibly weak and inexperienced if compared to them Spaniards', especially the latter.
