I think a lot of top sides at the moment have ageing defences and it'll depend on who replaces them eventually.

Same with England. If we had some more solid defenders we'd probably be able to play with more freedom like the Italians. But the way the game is now solid defenders will be few and far between as so much is put on technical ability even in the less technical positions. Even with keepers we're seeing very average keepers go for silly money just cos they're a bit more capable with the ball at their feet.

I want Italy out before the final, don't care how. They look really organised and dangerous

Whatever happens, no-one will convince me Italy aren't the best team in this tournament.

A Belgium goal to take it to extra time would be fantastic.

If Italy go through could see them battering Spain.

Italy should be scared now. Nacer Chadli is on.

As good as Italy are to watch they're leaving themselves quite exposed.

This could be a huge loss for Italy if this injury is as bad as it looks. One of the players of the tournament.

Spinazola injured too. He's been superb.

What's Martin Keown on about saying the physio could work wonders on that injury,

If torn that's tournament over

Yep, time wasting pays. This won't be added on fully either.

This isn't smart by Donarumma. He can't be that injured, he's surely only getting time added on.

Get away with it though. Always feels when we try it the ref rushes our player off the pitch and adds about 3 times as much time on extra.

This is where you hate Italy. You know full well he’s fine.
