2-1 Italy.
Immobile dive 90+4 leads to pen

0 - 0 after extra time. No-one scores a penalty so it goes to a judging panel for a dive-off which England only just win.

How long after the final whistle will the calls start for Gareth Southgate to be knighted/sacked immediately for being tactical genius/completely inept in fielding the best England team ever/putting out the weakest side of the tournament?

Blue & white, not red & white.

Another sidesplitter, be careful I don't want to be up A&E before the big game.

Tempting.

I have English and Italian friends so I'm kind of conflicted, I think Italy will win as they're a better side and I really like Chiellini. I'm not fussed either way to be honest, I just hope it's a good game; there have been some crackers in the tournament and I hope the final lives up to my expectations.

I think it will be pretty dull football to be honest and I can't see us winning but it's been a great tournament, result wise, so happy already.

Plus, not long to go till the season starts and live football resumes.

Happy bunny.

I sometimes think that CC mimics the many, including our esteemed prime minister, who conflate Great Britain with England. They forget that many of us hail from Wales or Scotland; and have loyalties elsewhere.

Dull football? Seriously? England have become adept at hitting on the break which is pretty exciting to watch and Italy have played easily the most relentless attacking football of the tournament. If that leads to a dull game I'll be surprised (and disappointed).

I really believe that if England can keep up the standard of the quarter and semi finals they will have a little bit of an edge on the Italians, especially with crowd support.

The Italian defenders are great, but are getting on a bit and will struggle with the pace of England if they can maintain it all game.
