Match 07 Italy beat Spain 2-0


It will be the sixth time Italy have met Spain at the finals of the European Championship, making it the most played fixture in the tournament. That history is primarily recent - this will be their fourth Euros encounter since 2008

Antonio Candreva is out with a thigh problem and his place at right wing-back is expected to go to Roma's Alessandro Florenzi.

Spain have named the same starting line-up in all three games so far.

Centre-back Sergio Ramos is the only Spaniard to have been booked and another caution would rule him out of a potential quarter-final.


  
Round of 16 Match 07 Italy  Vs Spain - Match Facts

Head-to-head
  • This will be the fourth time the sides have met in the last three European Championships, and the sixth overall - making it the most played fixture in the tournament.
  • Italy's last competitive win against Spain was a 2-1 victory in the quarter-finals of the 1994 World Cup. Azzurri coach Antonio Conte started that match.
  • Since then, Spain have lost just one of 11 games against Italy (including friendlies), winning four matches and drawing six (two penalty shoot-outs counted as draws).
Italy
  • Defeat to the Republic of Ireland was the Azzurri's first defeat in 13 competitive games under Antonio Conte (W9, D3).
  • Italy have failed to score in three of their last four knock-out games at the European Championship - with the exception their 2-1 win against Germany in the semi-finals in 2012.
  • The Azzurri used more players (22) than any other side in the group stage, including all 20 outfield squad members. Only Leonardo Bonucci and Andrea Barzagli have started all three games.
  • Italy have never scored more than two goals in their 36 games at the European Championship.
  • Defeat would see the Azzurri lose consecutive games at the European Championship finals for the first time.
Spain
  • The Spanish have lost three of their last six games at the World Cup and European Championship - as many defeats as in their previous 31 major tournament games.
  • None of Sergio Ramos' 48 shots at World Cup or European Championships have resulted in goals (excluding penalty shoot-outs).
  • Alvaro Morata's tally of three European Championship goals for Spain is exceeded only by David Villa (four) and Fernando Torres (five)

Goal Scorers for Italy

Giorgio Chiellini in the 33rd minute and Graziano Pelle in the 90+1 minute scored the goals as Italy exacted revenge for their Euro 2012 final hammering by dumping Spain out of Euro 2016 with a deserved 2-0 last 16 win in Paris on Monday.


Giorgio Chiellini forced home the winner from close range after goalkeeper David de Gea could only parry

Eder's fiercely struck free-kick. Pelle volleyed in a deflected cross in injury time to complete Spain's heartbreak.

After crashing out of the World Cup in the first round, Vicente del Bosque's team have now failed to get to the Euro quarter finals.

Spain had lost just one of their previous 11 meetings with Italy, including a 4-0 win in the Euro 2012 final. But the Azzurri were by far the better side in the opening 45 minutes and could have been more than one goal up at the break

A series of De Gea saves kept Spain in the game, but their quest for an unprecedented third consecutive Euro title peetered out as Gianluigi Buffon saved from Andres Iniesta and Gerard Pique late on to set up a mouthwatering quarter-final clash with Germany on Saturday July 02,2016 in Bordeaux.
