    They have met 4 times previously in major competitions.
    Italy have won them all.

    Scotland on the other hand were lucky enough to win the last 2 1/2 weeks off... hope they are enjoying their holidays :D

    Italia 90 3rd place playoff. I feel good about ruling that out. More about giving the squad a run out.
    Euro 2012 snore fest. Fair enough. We were awful. But still 0-0 really

    i can't recall the others?

    It's a shame Scotland supporters don't redirect all the energy they put into hating England into supporting their own team. It might help them and you never know, they might even one day make it past the group stages of a tournament.

    I know it might seem an unrealistic goal, but if you're going to dream you may as well dream big.

    Oh the irony. I redirect you to your post and map.
    Lighten up it’s not hatred but banter and a laugh.

    Scotland still the only team England has failed to beat.
    And I admit Italy are far superior than us.

    Personally, I think Italy are clear favourites for the final.

    Italy were arguably the best team in Europe heading into the tournament. They've been superb throughout it, even overcoming a very difficult game against Spain when they demonstrated character and winning mentality to get through.

    They have never lost to England in a tournament and Italy's tournament pedigree is infinitely superior to England. History is with them.

    Home advantage is tempered by the fact capacity is only 60,000 and there will be plenty of UK based Italians in the ground too.

    It will be a massive achievement deserving of everyone's respect, regardless of bias, if England win it.

    I can't wait for the game to start.

    The old men in the Italian defence will not be able to deal with the pace of our attack. They will give away a penalty and may even have one of them sent off. That's my accumulator sorted.
