Italy with the momentum, nearly 10 minutes left and they're 12/1 to win in 90 minutes - worth a cheeky couple of quid on it.
Definitely, not bad odds, might win yourself £24

Have to say that's down to the Germans as they charged at the Italians at the start of the second half, got the goal and forced Italy to come out.

Extra time in this fascinatingly poised quarter final.

This is shaping up great for France and Portugal. Key players on bookings picking up suspensions and now extra time.

Dull first half, decent second half. Interesting 30 mins to come. (I hope it's not penalties.)

I'm still hoping Iceland can find some magic and knock France out!

The overwhelming majority regard Wales as the favourites for the semi final.

Wouldn't it be nice to see both teams have a go and try to win it in extra time. So rarely do you get that these days.

Interesting that Wales are the only team in this round so far to win in regular time.

Certainly not the bookies. Portugal are strong favourites and will send the English haters home.

I don't think the Welsh team hate England, they actually seemed to have a lot of respect for the team, particularly the manager.

They were just cheering the shock victory of a big underdog. To be honest, I'd probably be doing the same as a neutral. In fact, I was rooting for Iceland in most of their matches and even said at the start of the game with England that a tiny part of me wanted to see them win.

When did the kick off rules change to only one player standing near the ball?

More to the point why have players been allowed to get away with kick offs not allowing the ball to roll one full circumference before being touched again?

The have to kick the ball forward rule at kick-off was abolished recently.

the rule change was that you could kick the ball backwards........so now you only need one guy to do that

couple of months ago it was announced

The Italian should have been booked, delaying that free kick

edit, is that 2 or 3 Italians that would miss the semi.?
