Recall how it was. The final Euro - 2012
Few hours remain until the main football event of the year in Europe. Today, in Kiev will be the final match between Spain and Italy. Pireneytsev, if he wins, will enter their names in history in golden letters.
The fact that the Spanish team could become the first team, the protection of the title of European champion.
Italians can become champions for the second time. The first time they did it 44 years ago.
It is noteworthy that on the field, both teams will bring captains goalies: Gigi Buffon and Iker Casillas will be the second in the history of a pair of captains gloves. The first time was 78 years ago.
In the group stage the team painted between a global draw 1: 1.
Let's pomanipuliruem bit numbers and make preliminary forecasts. Let's start with a spectacled stock. If you take into account the stage of the playoffs, the Spaniards will credit 11 points and the Italians - 9.
By pocketed balls, again ahead of the Spaniards, eight to six.
Missed balls again give odds Spanish. Iker Casillas missed only one ball into his own net.
And it is from the Italian team. Buffon missed three times more.
The Spaniards also less than breaking the rules: 10 yellow cards against 15 Italians.
The best scorer in the compositions of both teams is still the Italian Mario Balotelli. On account of his three goals.
But at the Spanish team just three players scored two goals: Cesc Fabregas, Xabi Alonso and Fernando Torres.
At the Italian national team, after all, a long bench in terms of equivalence substitutions. As part apennintsev Only three players have played all five previous matches against whistle to whistle, Andrea Pirlo, Claudio Marchisio and Gianluigi Buffon.
The total number of Italian players, go basis or to replace - 19 players.
At the same time Spain has no substitutions played just six people, four of them - backs: Ramos, Alba, Pique and Arbeloa. In the field of Ukraine and Poland out of 16 Spanish players.
Looking at the numbers listed, it is clear that the Spaniards will try to beat the Italians in the center of the field to capture the usual ball control. Del Bosque is unlikely give up years of waste schemes.
Naturally, the Italians know how to defend themselves, and most importantly - do not give freedom to the attacking midfielder. The Italians are ready to play with any opponent, especially because Prandelli vowed not to give up the initiative of the current champions. Spanish national team have to fear not only the Super Mario and Tonino, but also tactical moves by Cesare Prandelli.
The main purpose should be to neutralize the Spanish Andrea Pirlo. Really very good Italian today. In general, the Italians seem more fresh and we hope that the word "catenaccio" (Shield Wall), they will not remember until the final whistle :) By the way, the chief arbiter of the match was appointed Portuguese Pedro Proença.
Finally, a few fun facts. Mario Balotelli, in the history of appearances in the national team, scoring balls only on the territory of Poland. In addition to three in the final part, another goal was scored by an Italian in a friendly match against Poland, which took place in Wroclaw.
It took 5 minutes Antonio Di Natale to score the goal of the Spaniards during the match of the group round.
That the Italians broke a 14-game winning streak the Spanish national team in official matches.
Within the framework of the European Championship, the Spaniards gave way last time - six years ago.
Most accurate transmission of the tournament made the Spaniard Xavi Hernandez - 455.
But most of all in one match - Italian Andrea Pirlo (117 passes in a match against the British).
Gigi Buffon will play his 120th game in the shirt of the national team.
His Spanish counterpart, Iker Casillas - 136th.
