Nope, even Chiellini says the whole team were physically spent and jaded after the Germany game, they also had a day less to recover than Spain. But yes, Prandelli totally fucked the tactics up by playing the open 4-3-1-2 against them instead of the back 3. Still think Spain would have ended up winning either way.

Italy don't own their national currency anymore, while UK were still using in, that's why italeave is not possibly anytime soon, that's why scottish referendum was complete bullshit cause they would be forced to switch from pounds to something while now they can easily switch to euros if they will leave the uk and join the eu
A day of extra rest doesn't mean shit to a professional sportsman, instead it might be bad for your cause you will lose your in-game tone, now France is in this situation cause they have to wait for 1 week til they will play in 1/8 against Ireland and it's a lot

I disagree. In a tournament situation, a day's rest is actually vital in recovery/recuperation. Especially towards the end of a tournament where players are more likely to be burned out and tired after pushing themselves. It makes it even harder when you are playing a team like Spain who control the majority of possession and make teams run around like crazy.

Of course you disagree cause you never participated in the football tournament and you don't understand that with the current level of medicine, massage procedures and physiotherapy for football players it's better to play each 3 days than once in a week cause you are getting more tired of training sessions than of playing 90 minutes
"This was a great European Championship for us," Italy coach Cesare Prandelli said. "Really the only regret is that we didn't have a few extra days to recuperate. You could tell right away that they were fresher physically."
Nah nah but listen to fucken Dr Djanik 241 bit medical expert

That's why Prandelli is pussy, instead of admitting that he was wrong with formation and Chiellini in the line-up, he put the blame on physical side, like Spain had a one week vacation on Ibiza before the match while Italy had high intense training sessions and the mathc against Germany
I even agree with you that Prandelli fucked up his formation. But there is no doubt in my mind that Spain came into that game much fresher than Italy did.

I bet a quarter of weed (7 grams) on you useless talentless fucks vs Spain. Better win!!
Only reason I made the bet with my dealer was because dude was riding Pique's nuts and was saying he was the best defender in the world. Shit got me riled up and made me partake a dumb bet. Hope BonBon wins me a Q. :xfinger:
Stop being stubborn obviously Italy was exhausted before the Spain match. Whether it's because they had less rest, were poorly conditioned or ran more (lol) is irrelevant. It still was a contribution to Italy losing in addition to Prandelli's poor tactics, poor formation and poor subs. And the Thiago Motta injury wrecked us. We were still in it before he went down and subsequently had us down to 10 men. In my opinion Prandellis substitutions were the biggest reason we lost and by such a large margin because it put us in the position where a significant injury would make us a man down. That is poor coaching and any manager will tell you that. Even Spain said 4-0 didn't reflect the match itself. Despite all Prandellis mistakes in that match we still had a chance if Prandelli handled substitutions better hence we weren't down a man.
I've been doing great bro. Family is healthy, I'm healthy. Got my last semester all lined up, gonna do my teaching practicum from October 17 till December 17th, then I should have a real job teaching by January. Hopefully half way through my practicum I'll get a few contract offers :xfinger: not too worried about finding work cause Western Canada is starving for French teachers, so things are well.
Economy is still shit here though, but doesn't impact my sector so it's cool. How's the family on your end? Kid's growing fast?!
