Supporting Italy. Feel a bit dirty doing so, but **** it.

Supporting Spain, but half-heartedly, Italy are Evil, Spain are just irritating.

Super-Mario is great though, will he score will he get sent-off, will he do both.

Spain's performance thus far suggests they've been trolling us all for the tournament up until now. Look a class above.

To be fair Spain have definitely been better this match, more tempo, and getting the ball into the final third. Italy have just sat back in their horrific way, so I'm happy for the goal, might make a match of it.

Well, Platini said they did a great job before this match, so now they've actually influnced one decision, I reckon he'll be organizing a ticker-tape parade.

Assuming you're watching on sbs? But yeah, it had a bit of a heart attack and was displaying an error message just before the goal, and the picture has since lost clarity and is defs not in sync with the audio.

Platini is great, I look forwards to Euro 2020 when we have our first group game in Oslo and the second in Tel-Aviv
