Re: ⚽UEFA EURO 2020 Discussion Thread | Current Phase: Finals in June 2021!
A really good performance from both teams yesterday evening, Italy played carefully while still dangerous and Austria showed that they are not pushovers.
I like this Italy's team, I think Mancini is really making the most of it. Keeping Chiesa on the bench is a good strategy as well, he's most dangerous when playing against already tired defense. That goal yesterday was pure class.
This strategy is very likely to be a blunder, imagine if VAR did not exist then I believe Austria would have won. Italy is still lucky because Austria's goal was disallowed because if it was a legitimate goal, then Italy would not be able to reverse the situation under pressure because time was also running into the last minute. I'm just disappointed with the Italian game, because I also bet on this match and a draw in 90 minutes made my bet lose. I like this Italy's team, I think Mancini is really making the most of it.
