EURO 2008 - ITALY v SPAIN - Quarter-Final 4 - Predictions

[RM-Taylor]

After the Netherlands awful showing against the Russians, I feel the same thing will happen again with the Spanish in this game.

If they play badly against the Italians, then they'll be punished.

Inevitably I think they will, and I now also predict that the Italians will win the whole tournament.

Italy 2-0 Spain

Who do you think will play Russia in the second semi-final and what will be the score?

 

[RM-Taylor]

Shit.

I forgot to click the 'Make Public Vote' option :thud:

It hasn't been my day has it

 

[steward 433]

I reckon Spain might overcome the big stage jitters they always seem to get, 1-0 to spain for me

 

[Beach Hut]

Spain only so Mrs Hut joins me in the semis.

Junior (Crotia) and Mini (Portugal) are out already

 

[coventrygull]

Spain will blow it as they always do. Italy for me even if they are shit

 

[Frutos]

Spain 2-1 Italy

 

[Icy Gull]

Italy seem to get away with being shit and still win trophies. I expect Spain to underachieve and lose as always and for Italy or Germany to win overall as normal service in Europe is resumed.

i prefer the italian anthem, so i want them to win

 

[Wardy]

2-1 Spain for me

Always makes me think of a Banana Republic when I hear it, it's a shit anthem

 

[Skaville]

Italy will win this one, despite being outplayed by the Spanish. Buffon to keep them in it, followed by a late winner...

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

I agree with Jimmy. Spain will play all the attractive football but not take their chance and Italy will be defensive and score on the break 0-1.

 

[Skaville]

Can I also predict that Luca "The Italian Glen Murray" Toni will miss an absolute hatful of chances before scoring the winner.

 

[Cantona's Flying Dropkick]

Spain 2 - 1 Italy

 

[Napper]

organisation + stifling tatics 1 attractive football 0

 

[che]

0-0 aet and Spain will win the penalties

 

[Kenhead]

I can see Italy winning this, so far all the group winners are out and i can see that trend carrying on.
Might be down to the fact that Portugal, Croatia and Holland all put reserve teams out in there last group game and them 3 teams lost there moumentum going into the next match, Spain also did aswell....

 

[Alonso Moseley]

1-1 aet. Spain win on penalties although I I like Kenheads point though think Italy will ultimately fluff it.
