Viva Espana - Spain defeat the Italians on penalties…
A victory for football… The Italians, despite being a side full of superbly talented individuals seemed to be playing all-out for a goalless full-time, and penalties, and did it ever come back to bite them - with Di Natale scuffing a weak fourth penalty into Casillas’ arms to hand the Semi-Final to Aragones and his lads. OK, so the football at the most part wasn’t pretty, but just take a look at David Silva and his heat-map (from the CPI) below as an example to see how hard the Spanish worked.
I was hoping for updates of screaming Italians and Spanish supporters live from ‘Gay Paris’ from our roving reporter Tom, but apparently someone spilt beer all over his laptop - and as such he has gone missing. Still, I imagine he is somewhere, leaping from fountain to bar with Spanish scarf around his head, considering a nationality change. Cracking excitement, despite the football - and here’s hoping for an exciting pair of Semi Finals.
Who’s going to win? I don’t know, but one thing is for sure… Don’t ask Luis Aragones!
