Head-to-head record • Italy took nine attempts to beat England for the first time, Fabio Capello scoring in a 2-0 home friendly victory in 1973. The Azzurri nevertheless hold a slight head-to-head advantage with a record of W9 D6 L7. • Although the nations first played in 1933 they did not meet in a competitive fixture until 1978 FIFA World Cup qualifying, trading 2-0 home wins – but it was Italy who made it to Argentina. The Azzurri have won four of their six competitive meetings, England just one. Selected previous meetings 27 March 2002: England 1-2 Italy (Fowler 63; Montella 67, 90pen) – Elland Road, Leeds, friendly England: Martyn (James 46), Mills (G Neville 46), Campbell (King 46), Southgate (Ehiogu 46), Bridge (P Neville 87), Beckham (Murphy 46), Lampard (J Cole 46), Butt (Hargreaves 46), Sinclair (Sheringham 70), Owen (Vassell 46), Heskey (Fowler 46). Italy: Buffon, Cannavaro, Materazzi (Iuliano 57), Nesta (Adani 82), Zambrotta, Panucci (Coco 74), Doni (Tommasi 74), Di Biagio (Gattuso 57), Zanetti (Albertini 57), Totti (Montella 46), Delvecchio (Maccarone 74). • Vincenzo Montella's double overturned Robbie Fowler's goal in the countries' most recent encounter, from which Gianluigi Buffon is the only survivor. Demetrio Albertini, now Italian Football Federation vice-president, appeared as a substitute. 11 October 1997: Italy 0-0 England – Stadio Olimpico, Rome, FIFA World Cup, qualifier Italy: Peruzzi, Nesta, Cannavaro, Costacurta, Maldini (Benarrivo 31), Di Livio, Albertini, D Baggio, Inzaghi (Chiesa 46), Vieri, Zola (Del Piero 62). England: Seaman, Campbell, Adams, Southgate, Beckham, Batty, Ince, Gascoigne (Butt 87), Le Saux, Sheringham, I Wright. • England avenged a 1-0 home defeat earlier in this qualifying campaign by earning the draw that took them to the 1998 World Cup as group winners and left Italy to qualify via the play-offs. Hodgson was in Rome with Glenn Hoddle's squad and helped out as Hoddle's interpreter. • Gianfranco Zola, then of Chelsea FC, had scored the only goal of the first game at Wembley on 12 February 1997, securing Italy's first away win against England since 1973 when they were 1-0 victors in a friendly. 7 July 1990: Italy 2-1 England (R Baggio 72, Schillaci 86pen; Platt 82) – Stadio San Nicola, Bari, FIFA World Cup, third-place play-off Italy: Zenga, Bergomi, Ferrara, Baresi, Vierchowod, Maldini, Giannini (Ferri 90), Ancelotti, De Agostini (Berti 67), R Baggio, Schillaci. England: Shilton, Stevens, Parker, Walker, M Wright (Waddle 71), Dorigo, McMahon (Webb 71), Platt, Steven, Beardsley, Lineker. • Italy claimed the bronze medal at their home World Cup thanks to Salvatore Schillaci's late penalty, which secured him the Golden Shoe. 15 June 1980: Italy 1-0 England (Tardelli 79) – Stadio Communale, Turin, 1980 UEFA European Championship, group stage Italy: Zoff, Gentile, Collovati, Scirea, Tardelli, Causio (Baresi 88), Oriali, Benetti, Antognoni, Bettega, Graziani. England: Shilton, Neal, Watson, Thompson, Sansom, Coppell, Wilkins, Kennedy, Keegan, Birtles (Mariner 75), Woodcock. • Italy's narrow victory in their second game of the 1980 finals ended English hopes of finishing as group winners and reaching the final. Enzo Bearzot's hosts eventually finished second in the section behind Belgium and lost the third-place play-off to Czechoslovakia. Last updated 22/06/12 23:42:48CET 3 Match background England v Italy Sunday 24 June 2012 - 20.45CET (21.45 local time) MATCH PRESS KIT Olympic Stadium, Kyiv Form guide • England have posted four wins and one draw under Hodgson and are now looking to reach only their second UEFA European Championship semi-final since 1968. • England's quarter-final record is two wins and two defeats: 1968 Spain 1-0 h, 2-1 a (3-1 agg) 1972 West Germany 1-3 h, 0-0 a (1-3 agg) 1996 Spain 0-0 (aet, 4-2 pens) 2004 Portugal 2-2 (aet, 5-6 pens) • European champions in 1968, Italy have a 50% success rate in EURO quarter-finals: 1968 Bulgaria 2-3 a, 2-0 h (4-3 agg) 1972 Belgium 0-0 h, 1-2 a (1-2 agg) 2000 Romania 2-0 2008 Spain 0-0 (aet, 2-4 pens) • When Italy finished fourth in 1980 and reached the semi-final in 1988, there was no quarter-final stage. Team ties • Hodgson has had coaching spells in Italy at FC Internazionale Milano (1995-97, 1999) and Udinese Calcio (2001). In 1999, when serving briefly as caretaker coach back at Inter, he worked with Andrea Pirlo. • Hodgson faced Italy four times as Switzerland coach, posting one win, one draw and two defeats. In 1994 World Cup qualifying, his Switzerland side earned a 2-2 draw in Cagliari and then won 1-0 in Berne before two 1-0 friendly defeats. • Hodgson enjoyed a famous win against Juventus during Fulham FC's run to the 2010 UEFA Europa League final, overturning a 3-1 first-leg loss with a 4-1 home victory in the round of 16. Claudio Marchisio played for Juventus in the first leg. • As a Juventus player, Cesare Prandelli suffered a 1979/80 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup semi-final defeat by Arsenal FC but beat Manchester United FC at the same stage of the 1983/84 edition. He came off the bench for the last six minutes of Juventus's 1984/85 European Champion Clubs' Cup final victory over Liverpool FC. • Prandelli's ACF Fiorentina side beat Everton FC 4-2 on penalties after a 2-2 aggregate draw in the 2007/08 UEFA Cup round of 16. Riccardo Montolivo – a scorer in the Viola's 2-0 first-leg win – converted his spot kick in the shoot-out, while Phil Jagielka had his penalty saved. Joleon Lescott was also in Everton's team and Leighton Baines on the bench. • Steven Gerrard headed the first goal when Liverpool fought back to draw 3-3 draw with Pirlo's AC Milan and win the 2004/05 UEFA Champions League final on penalties. Pirlo's deflected free-kick off scorer Filippo Inzaghi helped Milan avenge that defeat in the 2007 showpiece. • Wayne Rooney has struck ten goals in 14 UEFA Champions League appearances for Manchester United against Italian clubs. This included four goals in a 7-2 aggregate win against Pirlo's Milan in the 2009/10 round of 16 – although he was also on the losing side against them in the 2006/07 semi-finals despite finding the net twice in the first leg. • Rooney has scored four times in six appearances against Daniele De Rossi's AS Roma – including one goal in a 7-1 quarter-final win at Old Trafford in 2006/07 when De Rossi got the visitors' goal. De Rossi missed a penalty at the same stadium when Roma lost at the same stage in 2007/08.

  • Adidas – Euro 2012 Player Quotes Iker Casillas
    adidas – Euro 2012 Player quotes Iker Casillas - Spain Your last game is against Croatia, how do you feel ahead of this game? Our last game in our group is against Croatia and I expect this to be a very good game – it could well decide the group winners. They’ve got good attacking players like Modric and Rakitic and they play a similar style of football to us. I expect it to be very open with lots of chances for both teams and I hope we can come out on top. Who are the teams and players to look out for at Euro 2012? At Euro 2012 I think Germany will be a really strong team, they’ve got a good balanced side and played very well at the World Cup. Holland as well, runners up at the last World Cup, are a really good team. When they beat Brazil in 2010 they took a big step forward. However there are also teams like France, England and Portugal to watch out for. Take us back and tell us how it felt when you won the 2008 Euros and 2010 World Cup? I felt more intense emotions and joy at the 2008 Euros. It was my first major title with the Spanish national team and that’s when I fulfilled my childhood dream. The World Cup is the biggest tournament you can win on the national stage and it’s the dream for anyone who likes football – luckily I managed to make two dreams come true in two years! The two tournaments will always be very closely linked in my mind will always be the most special to me.

Football fans of a certain age wondered what took everyone else so long to discover this. In the mid- 1980s, Denmark were the most interesting and perhaps the best football team in the world, an almost unprecedented achievement for a country with a population of only five million. ‘What Denmark did was amazing,’ said Diego Maradona. ‘They were like a bullet train.’ They made history by playing football from the future: a fast-forward version of the Dutch Total Football that had charmed the world in the 1970s, and with the same unashamedly attacking intent.

Chiedetelo a Gigi Buffon, che ha sposato la Nazionale 13 anni fa e che il 10 settembre nella sua Torino (nella foto n°5 viene premiato dal presidente della Figc Abete) ha eggguagliato il record di 136 presenze in maglia azzurra di Fabio Cannavaro. Una storia d’amore iniziata nelle selezioni giovanili e sbocciata definitivamente in una fredda serata di ottobre in Russia, quando a soli 19 anni Gigi si alzò dalla panchina per sostituire Gianluca Pagliuca (foto n°1). Era l’andata dello spareggio di qualificazione al Mondiale del ’98 e la porta della Nazionale si sentì subito protetta da quel ragazzone dalla faccia pulita e dai riflessi formidabili. Il primo gol in Azzurro Buffon lo incassò quella sera su autorete di quel Cannavaro che, tredici anni più tardi, avrebbe visto eguagliare il suo record dall’amico e compagno di tante battaglie (Foto n°4).
