Theyâre pressing Italy very well and making them make mistakes in their own half.
Thought that tackle looked worse than what it was. Harsh yellow
Silly challenge from Pique.
Balzaretti has a very frustrating habit of checking back when he gets into good positions.
Spainâs steroid abuse really showing in this game.
Great cross from Balzaretti.
Casillas got away with one there.
De Rossi is top class.
Great work and through ball from De Rossi there
Great ball from DDR out to Cassano there. Italy enjoying a decent spell here.
Italy responding well. Cracking game
De Rossi starting to take this game by the scruff of the neck.
Iâm worried about the space between defence and midfield when we press.
All Italy since the goal
Cassano has been very good.
Decent effort from Cassano. Ray doesnât seem to understand the relationship between risk and reward. Not every simple ball is the right decision.
Spain pressing Pirlo but DDR is really stepping up into the space as a result. This is a smashing game so far.
Ray having a cut at De Rossi. In between the two passes that Ray commented on there was a terrific crossfield pass through traffic to setup the Cassano shot that Ray missed or chose to ignore.
Marchisio needs to step it up, he has been anonymous.
We need to get the ball to Cassano, he has been our biggest threat.
The goal aside, David Silva has been disappointing tonight
