You’ve got to love Italian centre half’s. Live for defending but good at causing chaos at attacking corners. Hard buggers normally as well. 
And of course Baresi was a Rolls Royce. He should be a Ferrari but hat would be too frantic for him, he strolled games effortlessly.

Feels like Chiellini and Bonucci have been Italys defensive pairing for about 6 tournaments now

The square root of feck all but his face fits. Feckin Match of the Day. The One Show. Radio 5 every 2 minutes. 

 

He's on nearly as much as Micah feckin Richards.

Dinnae worry.

Peter Crouch is hosting a light entertainment chat show during the tournament.

Just noticed Jorginho is playing, didn't realise he started the champions league final until well after watching the match :lol:

Does it have a yellow stripe down the back ?

I think these jokes were first premiered at the 1966 World Cup 🙄

i dont mind richards, but cant stand jenas. for me he is the english michael stewart. he thinks he is some sort of deep thinker that people are desperate to hear from when all he ever did in his career was win a league cup. richards win the league, fa cup and was runner up in the u21 euros (the same year that driver made the squad)

Yeah I just remembered Barzagli was around before they became a trio, he must be retired by now I would imagine

Gordon Bennett.  

 

These commentators are getting on my tits already.

 

They are garbage. Jenas must be one of the absolute worst when it comes to expert analysis.

Knew I should've taken that handicap corners bet.

 

🤦‍♂️

 

Yellow cards seemed a decent bet too.   The ref has a near average of five yellows a game.    All competitions.   No cards yet but I think there will be in the second half.

The ref is cool as a 🥒.   I was expecting more bookings early on.   Penaltys, free kicks.    He's having a good game.  ☺

Originally there was 13 Hosts as it's the 60th anniversary edition. 

It's also the first time it's had 24 teams playing 51 games so spreading it out also spread out the costs.

They weren't going to let 13 teams get a "hosts" automatic finals slot, so everybody had to qualify.

Hosts get between 2 and 3 home games in the group stages.

Thread linked above has most of the details.

 

Perfect mate. Thanks for that.

Not convinced that Italy are going to break down Turkey's 6 central defenders here.

Italy might sneak a penalty but Turkey managing to hold strong.

At least one of those handball claims would have been given in the EPL. 

 

Perhaps they're taking a bit more of a conservative view for the tournament given all the controversy over some of the handballs previously given by VAR. Good if so.

 

All Italy so far. It's either going to be 0-0 or 1-0 for Italy.

Start of the season. Stopped giving penalties for handball last few months. 

 

Rule has changed anyway. Back basically to the old rule of absolute stonewallers.
