Referee: V. Kassai
The third day of the European championship,brings us the match from Group C , and return to Poland, so these selections of Spain and Italy will play their encounter in Gdansk.
Otherwise, the current European and world champions at this competition are valid for one of the main favorites, and this is certainly confirmed by three wins in their last friendlies before Euro,while the Italians are in a totally different situation, because they suffered two defeats in the last 10-odd days, and have big problems with the match-fixing scandal.
These two selections ,less than a year ago weighed theirs strength in a friendly match, and then Italy has celebrated at home with a 2-1, while the Spaniards before that were much more successful, and certainly their most cherished victory was at last the European championship, when they passed in the quarter-finals after the penalty shoot-out.
Really good game so far and I'm very impressed with Italy. Hope the second half is even better.
