The Euro finished tonight in Kiev. Spain and Italy face each other once again after the 1-1 draw in the opening fixture of Group C. This time, Prandelli confirmed that he won't start a five-men defensive line against Del Bosque's players, while the Spanish media debated whether the former Real Madrid Coach will play without a pure striker yet again.

This could be the third international title in a row for the Spanish national team, something no other team has been able to achieve. Spain hasn't won a single official game against the Italians, so Balotelli, Cassano and Pirlo will try to keep this record unbroken.
