  1. Messi, Icardi are Italian names. Familiar people playing each other but in such a match, the Argentines would be exceptionally brutal to Jorginho, Emerson and Toloi but go easy on Insigne, Di Lorenzo..

  2. UEAF and CONMEBOL should create this after every euro and copa and call it the Copa Maradona. This Trophy/match could be one created in memory of Maradona and makes for another meaningful International Trophy. But it should take place right after both tournaments end that way the hype is still there. Imagine the matchups in previous years, Argentina v Italy, Chile v Portugal, Uruguay v Spain. Could be the start of a new meaningful trophy

  3. Honestly i don't see south American teams winning against top 5-8 European teams anymore. The gap between sport level of European teams and South American becames clear. Copa America was so boring compared to Euro…

  4. Italy 1 Argentina 2. These donkeys that are underestimating Argentina and backing Italy are overlooking one very very important detail. The two Italian centrebacks are over 34 years old. This Euro was perhaps the last bit they had in them and if they come up against young aggressive energetic strikers like Martinez and gonzalez who constantly press at defenders, they will definitely commit mistakes, and you know who will be waiting to punish them brutally for their mistakes- king Leo Messi. I think it will be a close match and will come down to mistakes and Italy's older defenders will be much more susceptible to committing mistakes than Argentina's younger guys at the back.
