They get the ball, they attempt to score a goal. They concede goals due to their aggression, but they batter everyone into submission because they are better at attacking. As opposed to the Spanish style, they get the ball, then play keep away for 10 minutes, then have one attempt at scoring a goal, then play another 10 minutes of keep away, constantly horrified at the idea of having a fair game.

The Italy play style is basically give the ball to Pirlo and run in random directions until he works out whom to pass to haha xD, then go from there!

Also I feel Germany have a much better chance to beat Spain than Italy, and there is no way I want that awful display of football boredom to be the european champ AGAIN!!!

so true, i love watching germany's highly aggresive playstyle the last few years, go Germany!

I think there's a decent chance this will be a really good match. Extremely hard to call a winner as both sides are far better at creating chances than they are finishing chances. Italy are also a lot better defensively than any Germany has played so far. I think a lot people have already pencilled Germany in for the final but Italy absolutely has a chance here.

What's wrong with you guys, both teams are playing great!

I like Italy better because they're playing way beyond peoples's expectations of them at the start of the tournament.

Germany just as good as foreseen.

This game should compensate for the boredom of a game that was spain vs portugal.
They first ignore you. After they laugh at you. Next they will fight you. In the end you will win.

I thought the game was tactically very good. Not exciting in attacks unfortunately, but it was a tactical battle for control over the midfield with tight forward defending from both sides. The Spanish played many guys back to cut down the potency of counter attacks as well.

Exciting high scoring? No. Awesome and interesting to watch high level midfield battle? Yup. The exception being when Spain enjoyed playing with the ball on their own end when not being pressured too hard on the goalie.

Gogo Germany. Their attack is beastly and if Spain played the 90 minutes as they did against Portugal or anywhere near that, Germany are going to batter them.
Would still like to see a Balotelli goal though lmao

I have a feeling that Italy will somehow pull out a win again like they always do in the big tournaments.
