Imagine having to watch Italy play again. I think I would rather take the Stoke City stadium tour.

Neuer is the best ever. Always there when you need him.

Don't worry, you get to see Iceland bunker in against the French tomorrow

If he had hit it more toward the corner Buffon would have got his hand to it!

Well put, it hobbled on the way and the placement was shit too but to say he should have saved it is extremely harsh

'Twas a terrible penalty. So so poor.

That was insane.

Germany good value for their win, Italy lucky it came down to penalties.

Iceland play good counter attacking football. Not the dull shit this Italy team play.

Iceland are entertaining at least. They have silly names and look like vikings.

Zaza just had to come on. Just had to be included in the squad. Just had to exist. He's so fucking shit. His own parents wouldn't miss him if he disappeared.

That was spectacularly shit indeed, worst out of a competitive bunch

Pellé should be mentioned too, even if that were on goal the ball would've come to a halt before the line

Müller was diabolical. Love to see his shitty "troll" antics blow up in his face, can't stand his stupid shitty face

Schweinsteiger was also comical, was never in doubt that he'd miss

Buffon just isn't that good at Pens. Noticed that in a few shootouts he don't get down fast enough.

But that pen was so poor he didn't expect that.

Think Germany will go on to win it now.

Not in my personal top five tonight. Just saw a replay in normal speed, wasn't all that bad - good pace on it and it was touching the ground when it reached Buffon

So much hate for Italy in this match Their brand of football really leave a lot to be desired. Conte went from the tactical genius to utter retard by subbing Zaza on just for the penalty shootout who contrived to produce one of the worst ever penalty I have ever seen, run-up included.

When Darmian stepped up I knew he would bottled it. He's just bad at everything about football this year. Absolutely torrid season.

Everything is contextual. Italy played good counterattacking football against Belgium and to a certain extent, Spain. Iceland have a had a few games where they've looked decent (Portugal, England) but they won't catch France by surprise on a long throw in like England and will likely be very negative.

Time will tell though

Neuer just ripped into the Italians for shooting down the middle, said none of their pens were any good. He just can't help being an insufferable dickhead, sore loser and even worse as a winner

Lol. Good pace? The keeper dived faster than the ball.

And if it's not absolutely aimed towards the bottom corner it has no business touching the ground.

That run up by Zaza!

What a legend.
