[sansebastion]

Wouldn't say no to Koeman bringing him along...

Italy are everything I want Everton to be.

Rife with the Mafia ?

 

[peteblue]

Great goal, Italy first class.........

 

[mezzrow]

Italy wrote the book on tournament football.

Belgium so Everton there. Oh, my.

 

[Mozza1987]

Extremely impressed with Italy then. They really know how to win. Belgium were terrible. Not actually surprised though. Great players but not a team at all.

 

[Mrk]

Best overall performance of any team so far from Italy. Fantastic defending.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Pelle Candreva and the non-mackem version of Giacherrini please Farhad.

Oh and I don't even care what age he is, Buffon too ffs.

 

[sageyefc]

Wouldn't mind pelle coming to us

 

[Lee Smith]

At least our new striker has scored

 

[VentureBrosEFC]

Forza Italia!!

 

[Jamiednm]

Belgium look naive. Can see the Italian National Team grabbing a second before the nights out.

Great foresight there lad.

 

[ncblue]

Best result of the day!

I can see some people are enjoying Belgium's failure, but I'm bummed by it

If they could live up to the hype, they would be thrilling champions

It's actually really frustrating

.....takes more than top footballers to make a top team, Mikey.

 

[royalblue66]

Now that's the way to do it Martinez.

Some nice football but their strikers where useless and defence goes awol.
