Italy have been a relevation and have played some real entertaining football the suprsie team of the tournament, which says a lot how Italy have slipped over recent years.  Will be a fascinating game.. Would like Italy to win tho Spain will probably keep the ball off the Italians for long periods. I will try my hand at 1-1 and into extra time Spain winning 2-1

Italy won't mind Spain having the ball, I would imagine Spain will have to be super patient tonight. I fancy the Italians by the odd goal in 3

Best Spain have played all tournement. Much more enjoyable.

Spain fantastic so far tonight, Italy have done OK but have been outclassed. The 2nd goal was superb. Alba looks world class.

A masterclass in modern football from Spain - a lot more incisive and purposeful in their passing and attacking intent. That second goal was a joy to watch. The run from Alba, the awareness and pass from Xavi, the glancing first touch from Alba and a composed finish. Superb.

Let's see what Prandelli can muster at half time. He tinkered against England and they dominated afterwards. Can he do the same against the best team in the world?

Great tournament, rubbish final, and I don't mind the way Spain played either, they were awesome. For a neutral who wants a good, even game it was a big letdown

And seeing the way Ballotelli acted at the end I'm glad his side got dicked

Spain hadn't got out of 3rd or 4th gear all tournament but they were in 5th tonight and destroyed Italy who were a bit unlucky with injuries. Spain perhaps the greatest team in history.

Oh, I don't know.... I always like to see the Ities get a caning.

Torres playes like a muppet the n pops up in the champns league and now the euros. how can that work?

Because he started dyeing his hair blonde again. Highlights bring highlights.

This Spanish team has achieved a few notable feats in the last four years:

• First team to win three successive tournaments. Only W Germany, to my knowledge, previously came close to doing this in the 70s (won Euro 72, won World Cup 74, runners-up at Euro 76).


• The second country to win the Euros three times, equalling the Germans.


• First team to retain the Euro Championship.


• First European team to win World Cup when the finals have been held outside Europe.

I've quite enjoyed this tournament to be honest, possibly as a result of having little or no expectation for England.

Still no Spain's biggest fan but they did play well against the 9 1/2 men of Italy, so well done them.

The right (best) team won the tournament. You have to hand it to that Spanish team - they are miles ahead of most other teams in Europe and maybe the world at the moment.
