Spain 4 Italy 0
A bit of a masterclass from Spain but the final scoreline did not do justice to Italy for whom just about everything that could go,did go,wrong !
After Silvas opener,Italy had most of the play but one of those days when the ball just wouldnt run for them......then a great through ball to Alba makes it 2-0 in a half Italy edged possession 53%-47%.
Second half the 3rd sub,Motta,is carried off after only a few minutes on the pitch so Italy down to 10 men for the last 30 minutes.
The late goals from Torres and Mata made the scoreline cruel on Italy.
But Spain were very good and thats 3 major titles on the trot for them now......maybe the highest accolade I can pay them is that they were the only unbeaten team in the competition apart from England.(not including penalties) :rasta:

Nice to see that you have a classy avatar again Mr. Zidane

As for the final - well Spain did deliver a master class as you said.

One thing is for sure - if it had been the other way round then there would be no living with Balotelli's ego

Before the final I was researching Spanish and Italian women on the internet (sad I know :oops: ) and came across this lady.
She is an Italian actress called Monica Belluci.......quite a babe,but guess what ?.......shes 47 years old.....maybe older than you Terry ? :wink:

As for Balotelli,the way he stormed off at the end of 90 minutes,I wondered if he would bother to turn out for the presentation....but he did,right at the end of the line.

You inspired me to do a little research of my own, Z.
She may be 47 now, but she wasn't when that photo was taken!

WTF

I'm 63 at the end of this month and frankly beggars can't be choosers............... 8)

As Mrs.T always says - 'Window shopping is fine - but just remember that the item that you already purchased is sitting at home waiting'............... and I am happy enough there. :P

But I can't help it - a pretty lady will always turn my head. :wink:

As for Mr. Balotelli, I'm sure he will get another crack at it

The attachment monica3.jpg is no longer available
Admittedly she does look a bit rough on your pic d-m......maybe she'd just had a late night with Mario Balotelli ? 8)
BUT
She's the face for Dolce & Gabana make up for 2012.....try this one taken in May 2012.....amazing what a bit of make up can do !
