A – interesting point. I wonder if Holland, Portugal and Croatia are questioning their strategy of resting players. Considering that Holland and Croatia had to play 120 minutes against what looked like more fit opponents, I have to think it was the right call. It just didn’t work out this time.

JonKon – Frankly, I can’t think of a name on either starting lineup that won’t be vital, but yeah, Cassano probably deserved a mention. When it got to the forwards, I thought the preview was getting a bit long, so I ended it with Toni.

And yes, Lorenzo, Toni has only the disallowed goal. All fixed. Thank you.

No mention of Cassano? He will be vital!

Luca doesn’t have any goals this tournament…and the one he did score didn’t count…

Let’s hope he breaks the doughnut today!

FORZA ITALIA!

Three quarter finals were won by teams who didn’t make big changes from the previous game. Let’s see if Italy will make it a clean sweep.
