England v Italy

England in the quarter finals eh! 3 weeks ago it was all doom and gloom and they had no chance of qualifying from the group. Now most people don't give them much chance against the Italians yet all the talk is of playing the Germans in the Semi's LOL.

Nastassja Burnett - Italian Number 8

I believe they can win tonight. More importantly I believe there will be goals. I predict 3 goals in fact with a 2-1 result being the outcome. Hopefully to England but could be to Italy.

Everyone else seems to think it will be 0-0 and the Over 0.5 goals odds at 1.16 show this. England aren't as good defensively as everyone keeps saying and have ridden their luck so far. As for Italy they can be ripped apart at the back. The odds seem to think this is an Italian team from 20+ years ago! It is not so I'm piling into that price now as I'm off down the pub with the boys to watch this one (on a school night too!!).

Good luck whatever you bet - as long as it is for England to go through and more than 0.5 goals in normal time ;-)

Well bugger me! Sorry for the late update but as you will see lost my bank thanks to a 0-0 draw.
