Out of the 3 consecutive international title successes for Spain; this Euro 2008 was my favorite. It still gives me goosebumps every time I watch these highlights. Luis Aragonés was the real father of the Spanish Conquest in modern day football.
There is no golden era for Italy, they won on penalties the 2006 WC which means they were lucky. They won the 2020 EURO on penalties. Too much luck. Spain was the powerhouse between 2007 and 2013. Now they are back for more
As Spanish fans,spain have spirit of young players. But Italian experience and their chemistry is strong. Thats make Italy is the favourite team. But i still proud enough to spain reach semi even they get big critic for their performance in their beginning especially against poland and sweden. That's good to boost young player confident and experience for next major tournament
As an Italian, I believe the match will be much closer than people think. Anyway, Spain is my favorite national team after Italy so if you beat us I will root for you in the final. Hermanos mediterraneos🇮🇹♥️🇪🇦
@@coklatenak5544 we beat them 4-0 in the final, they played worse than us and couldn’t defeat the worst Spanish team until penalties even though they were supposed to be the best team. Winning on penalties is not destroying your rival

Por fin se rompía el maleficio , y España 🇪🇸 pasaba a semifinales, Luis Aragonés , El Mago de Hortaleza y su actitud de ganador dio paso a una selección que por fin nos regaló juego y alegrías. Descanse en Paz Don Luis 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🇪🇸🇪🇸🏆

The shootout that changed history of football. Imagine, that year Guardiola was coaching U23 Barça squad and was far to become the world famous coach is nowdays and Spain was already playing what the great Andrés Montes called "tiki taka", touch & move, touch & move. That day I was happier than when won the title..
Buffon and casillas one of the all time great and Best goal keepers of all time. But this Euro cup 2020 it will be the rematch of Italy vs Spain. All eyes on Italy because they will be looking for revenge for losing a title in 2008 Euro cup quaterfinal and 2012 Euro cup final against Spain.
Untill 2008 Buffon was considered better than Casillas. It was on this match where Casillas took the throne as the world best and kept it until 2013. Neuer took it from him

It definitely didn't win in performance and quality during the match. Italy pass to the final was pure luck. But luck or not we have to accept it. Let's see tomorrow against England...
Ahí se rompió por fin los malditos cuartos y después 🇪🇸 campeona de Europa. En este tiempo cuando no hemos ganado no habíamos pasado de cuartos y ahora estamos en semis y siempre que la hemos jugado acabamos siendo campeones, tiene que volver a tocar ❤💛❤¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡VAMOS 🇪🇸!!!!!!!!❤💛❤
I would honestly celebrate like Santi. Imagine having a legendary keeper in front and you, the whole country on their knees so you score... The pressure man...
What a milestone reaching in 2008 the semis and from there, it was really sky high. Before 2008, 1984 was the closest date for the Spanish national team to reach semis and finals. 2008-2010 and 2012 will be remembered as Luis Aragonés team, Del Bosque took the credit from the Wise of Hortaleza, who was the engineer of the national team.
The 2008 version of the Italian national team was significantly weaker than the 2006 version. Important players had retired or were injured. Others were past their prime. And of course, Donadoni was not a good coach; he did not bring out the best from his players and was very conservative throughout the tournament.
so, Spain started with the penalty shootout in this case, why isn't Pique complaining about that? Maybe because his team won? 😂 Despite that, greetings to Spain for the good match in the semifinal, it's an excellent team and Luis Enrique is the king of fair play, a true man 🇮🇹🤝🇪🇸
This game sent Spain into the stratosphere until 2012 & Italy still never regained that prestige they held coming into this game. Had the shootout went differently who knows how football history would turn out.. 🤷🏻♂️
@Luca Mastrangelo I guess you'll like to remember the 2012 Euro Final too. How many goals Spain scored? Three? Maybe four? Gosh they were too many that i forget some of them!
@@Junior-th9rt The Nations League has more or less the same level of difficulty as the Eurocup. Winning it has a lot of merit. You're just angry because your country didn't win it.
@@shadow_fps2911 true, but taking a penalty in a shootout in a really big event is suprisingly hard for the kicker. The pressure is more on the kicker than the goalkeeper
Spain played astronomically better during the whole match, and only won because of luck in the penalties. Also, their captain cheated in the coin toss so they would start first, which by the statistics seems to benefit the starting team.
1990, 1994, 1998, 2008, 2016: Italy have been terrible in PK shootouts over the years. To make matters worse Pirlo was suspended that night and di Natale never performed for the national team.
