Italy vs. Spain
I am really looking forward to this game.
In the past, I would probably have avoided it like the plague, as I hated both of them.
It all dates back to my childhood, when the Italians were a dirty cynical bunch of cheats, at both club and international level.
The worst of it was, they didn't need to be. as they were good enough to win playing in a sporting manner.
I hated Spanish and Portuguese football by association. as they were both mediterrainian countries and therefore, guilty in my young eyes, by association.
However, nowadays, I love both Mario and Merlin and hope they both have cracking games.
I would love it to be 3-3, with both Balo and David bagging a hat-trick.
