I have to say one thing. Considering every game in the bracket of death(Spain /Italy /Germany /France) could be physically and mentally exhausting, could the teams in the other bracket have an increased chance to win the cup ? Gotta feeling fatigue could play a part in this tournament too.
No way. It's not like one of the teams in the weak bracket is significantly better than the rest. They're all pretty equal and would need to play at their best to win.
Bale vs Ronaldo would be an interesting semifinal. Italy obviously made a stupid mistake by finishing 1st but on the plus side, if they somehow manage to beat Spain, Germany and France they are winning the final for sure
talking about italy, it sucks that if they somehow make it past spain they'll prolly be without Barza and Bonucci (both on a yellow) against Germany. takes away 2/3 of italy's biggest (only?) strenght.

That 4-3-3 looks so much better than what Italy play with now, and would be much more effective in an attacking sense.
But that 3-5-2 with the BBC at the back is just doing wonders so far. If they can shut out Spain, Italy's biggest bogey team at the moment, that'd be a huge mental boost.

a combination of both would be so great. i still dont understand why Conte ditched the 343, was so great vs Spain in March (got destroyed vs Germany but that was with a B team). hope he kept it as his ace and will surprise Spain tomorrow with it
yeah Atletico is a loser team, and they faced a great Real Madrid in the final. Italy is one of the great football nations and would play some scrubs in the final, IF they make it
