Reallly, Spain were much better. Italy were not at the races and when they went down to 10 players it was all but over.

Unfair … is not the word that comes to mind. Plain spayed really well! Congrats!
(I didn’t even know that "spay" was a word. You should look it up if you don’t know the meaning.)

Humiliated by the conquistadors!
Oh well, the best team won the match. Overall though, I think Italy was the best team throughout the competition.

Looks bad for Italy. I’m hoping for an early Italian goal to bring the suspense back.
