Euro U21 – England vs Italy – 24.06.2015

Euro U21 - England vs ItalyEngland U21 faces Italy U21, EURO U21

As long as Sweden don`t win over Portugal, England should suffice a draw against Italy, in the match tonight at Andrův Stadium, Olomouc, to secure their way into the semi-finals. Nothing is settled yet, all teams of the group still have the chance to reach the knockout stages.

England is placed second right after Portugal, with 3 points, while Italy is last of the group with only one point, so far. They still have a lot of work to do and they must concentrate to win this one.

After the opening match against Portugal, when they`ve showed a poor performance, boosting that back with a favorable game against Sweden, a strong team they`ve showed there, solid game, united players. The victory was theirs, even if they had to struggle at some point, and they had to wait nearly the end of the second half of the match, to score.

About Italy we can certainly say that they are in a very positive mood and self confidence is not missing, as the midfielder Lorenzo Crisetig considers, as he declared, that the Italians have great performance in this competition, it`s just that they didn`t manage to score yet, haven`t had the right occasion. Even if, we have to say they`ve played pretty good against Portugal, creating some great chances to score, but they didn`t.

Anyways, the midfielder also encourages his colleagues to stay focused and determined, to win the game or at least give their best into doing that. They have scored only once in their last three games and they really need to score today, otherwise they`re chances to go further in the competition will be reduced to none.

We remember England having met Italy in the last four different occasions, and they`ve never won a match, Italy won two, both by 1-0 and drawn the other two. Besides that, England never lead at half time in the last eight matches.

It will be a tight match, as both sides are pretty much on the same level of performance, wanting the same thing and as I said with nothing decided yet, for any team of the Group B. Some predict a 1-0 score in England`s favor, but the Italians won`t make it easy for them, that`s for sure.
