      EURO 2024 FREE BETS AND OFFERSDominant display sees La Roja through
      After this win against Italy, Spain are now guaranteed to progress from Group B in Euro 2024.
      Not that Luis de la Fuente will let his squad take their foot off the gas, they will want to win every game they play.
      Spain dominated the game, even if the scoreline does not totally reflect their performance.

      Copy linkCopiedA new look Spain send statement
      While it may not be the tiki-taka football of years gone by, this fresh young Spanish side have something different.
      They have the players to retain the ball while still being able to pass a ball to pick the lock of any defence.
      What is really different with this team though is that, due to insane pace of Yamal and Williams, they are happy to go direct with balls in behind the defence also.
      They will face tougher tests in this tournament but there are not many sides that will be able to lock horns with this Spanish side.
      Copy linkCopiedYoung winger draws plaudits
      Nico Williams is often linked to some of the biggest clubs in world football and tonight you could see why.
      He has pace and skill in abundance and can haunt the dreams of any full back.
      It was his cross that forced the own goal and he struck the crossbar with a thunderous shot from outside the box.
      A true ‘man of the match’ performance from Williams.

      Copy linkCopiedSpanish midfield sparkles in Gelsenkirchen
      While much of the talk is of Rodri and Pedri for La Roja, one player who goes under the radar often is Fabian Ruiz.
      He offers so much in attack but presses the opponents’ defence to stop them getting out of their own half.
      Ruiz came close to scoring on a couple of occasions and was a stand-out performer for Luis de la Fuente’s side.

      Copy linkCopiedFT: Spain 1-0 Italy
      Spain could have won this game by three or four goals.
      They need to be more clinical when they get to the knockout phase of the competition or may pay the price.
      Italy struggled to give the Spanish keeper anything to do all evening.

      The referee brings the game to a close.
      While it is a slender win by scoreline, Spain dominated this game from start to finish.
      Italy struggled to cope with their pace and creativity all evening.
      Copy linkCopiedSpain 1-0 Italy
      90+4. Italy try to go for an equaliser for one last time.
      The ball is cut back from the byline and headed behind for a corner.
      Chance for Italy to send all their big defenders forward once again.
      Copy linkCopiedSpain 1-0 Italy
      90+2. Some brilliant skill by Ayoze Perez for Spain.
      He nutmegs the Italian defender and gets a shot off at goal but it is well blocked by Donnarumma.
      Moments later he is through again but the big Italian keeper gets down well to prevent his shot going into the far corner.

      90. Carvajal makes a terrible dive to try and win a free kick.
      That truly was embarrassing by the Real Madrid full back.

      88. This is a period of the game now that The Azzurri can patiently build and look to create that one clear-cut chance before the final whistle.
      That is all it will take to get an unlikely equaliser.
      It is crazy to think that Italy have not played at a World Cup finals for ten years now.

      86. As Italy send all their big defenders up for the corner, it is whipped into the near post.

      Spain seem to have taken their foot off the gas now and are dropping deep.

      84. Italy certainly look like they are lacking some quality in the creativity of this team.
      All of their attacks look laboured and there does not seem to be any flair at all.
      That said, none of this will matter if they manage to grab a late equaliser.
      Copy linkCopiedSpain 1-0 Italy
      82. Italy are opting for a direct balls over the top of the Spanish defence to try and catch out some tired legs.
      Simon has had so little to do this evening that he is as fresh as any of the recently added players and comes out to collect.
      You can see since the changes now that this Spanish side do not look the same proposition when ‘The A-Team’ are not on the pitch.
      Copy linkCopiedSpain 1-0 Italy
      80. We are into the final ten minutes of the game.
      Spain need to be careful not to concede a goal against the run of play now.
      They have worked hard today and fully deserve their win, but football often does not respect such facts.
      Copy linkCopiedSpain 1-0 Italy
      78. Torres puts a teasing ball across the penalty area.
      Morata tries to get a boot to it but misses and the referee awards a free kick to the Italians.

      76. Well, this game has answered some questions this evening.
      If anyone thought that Italy were contenders for this trophy, think again.
      It looks more likely that Croatia will fancy their chances of beating The Azzurri to progress to the knockout phase.

      74. Pellegrini tries his luck from a free kick in a relatively wide position.
      It drifts over the crossbar and is causing no problems for Simon.

      ‘Is he wearing pure steel?’ – Kyle Walker forced into major change after nasty incident in England vs Denmark clash

      by

      KYLE WALKER gave England fans a scare as he was sat on the turf early on against Denmark.The Manchester City defender started the Three Lions second group game of Euro 2024.Kyle Walker was left on the turf and was forced to change his bootsCredit: ReutersWalker slipped on the pitch at the Deutsche Bank ParkCredit: EPAWalker’s ankle was left at a nasty angleCredit: AFPHe was then forced to change his boots to more appropriate teamCredit: PAHowever, the 34-year-old went down and was seen clutching his ankles after slipping on a piece of turf.This gave England fans a scare as they pondered who might have to replace the reliable defender. Fortunately, it turned out only his boots needed replacing, with his studs of choice not matching well with the pitch in Frankfurt.Reacting to the incident, fans said: “Walker is the only one cutting up the pitch, is he wearing pure steel?”READ MORE ON EURO 2024A second said: “Has walker got the wrong studs on or is this pitch an absolute mess?”A third said: “There’ll be no turf left by the time Walker has finished on the pitch.”A fourth added: “Walker getting his feet stuck into the turf twice in the opening couple of minutes…patches on the ground being ripped up, something to be wary of.”Walker was seen lacing up a fresh pair of fluorescent orange boots before returning to the pitch.Most read in Euro 2024BEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERSIt is not the first time the bad pitch at Frankfurt’s Deutsche Bank Park has been highlighted after it was branded “dangerous” and “a disgrace”.It came following a game between Germany and the Netherlands in March which saw Jamal Musiala and Kai Havertz among those who slipped several times. Four Lions singing outside England v Denmark stadium pre gameGerman star Musiala said: “I felt like I was slipping with every move. I do a lot of turns, so it has to be a bit stable. It can be a bit slippery, but it’s dangerous as it is.”Boss Julian Nagelsmann went a step further and called it “a catastrophe”.Bromances in England squad
      CLIQUES that were commonplace in the England camp in tournaments gone by have been well and truly consigned to history.
      Declan Rice and Ivan Toney? They have never played together at club level and only a handful of times for England, but are thick as thieves.
      Lewis Dunk and Dean Henderson? They play for arch-rivals Brighton and Crystal Palace, but that has not stopped an unlikely alliance from forming.
      Phil Foden and Cole Palmer have relished spending time together again, having done so for years for Manchester City before Palmer was sold to Chelsea for £45million last summer.
      NFL nuts Harry Kane and Anthony Gordon were chucking an American football to each other ahead of a light training session on Monday.
      John Stones and Kieran Trippier gatecrashed Jordan Pickford’s presser to see how their good mate fared, finding it hilarious as he slumped to defeat against talkSPORT.
      Conor Gallagher and Marc Guehi also have a long-standing friendship and have been besties since they were little playing in the Chelsea academy.
      Jude Bellingham and Liverpool man Trent Alexander-Arnold have also become close – evident in the Werewolf celebration they performed against Serbia.

      However, Walker’s change of boots proved to be inspired as he got in behind the Danish defence and whipped a cross into the area.After a deflection on the low cross, captain Harry Kane was on hand to tap home to give England the lead against the run of play.But England were soon pegged back to 1-1 with Morten Hjulmand, netting his first international goal with a fine strike from distance, which proved to be decisive as the game ended level.Walker then assisted England’s openerCredit: APEURO 2024 LIVE: KEEP UP TO DATE WITH ALL THE LATEST NEWS FROM GERMANY More
