Spain took a special plane to Innsbruck Airport in Austria, and then took a bus from the airport into the mountains southwest to the famous ski resort of Neussteft.

Located in the middle of the Alps, Neussteft is surrounded by mountains that are shrouded in clouds all year round, making this snow-capped mountain town feel like a wonderland.

The hotel in Spain is from the small town to the southwest, and then walk about 2 kilometers, the scenery is very beautiful, a small river flows down from the snow-capped mountains, and flows behind the hotel house, making the whole hotel seem extraordinarily peaceful.

The hotel has 60 rooms, all of which are occupied by the Spanish national team.

The Spanish national team chose this hotel because of its seclusion and the fact that there is a grass area for the Spanish national team to train right outside the hotel.

When the Spanish internationals arrived at the hotel, the national team staff had already prepared all the equipment, luggage, food and equipment.

After Yang Hao arrived, he first went to the hotel room to clean up, and then went to check the training facilities.

The facilities of the hotel are all available, in addition to the swimming pool, there is even a spa.

Standing on the training ground, you can see the magnificent Alps, which is really like being in a painting, which is refreshing and very pleasant.

Yang Hao is also very satisfied with this.

Both the hotel and the town also attach great importance to the presence of the Spanish national team, so the security around the town and the hotel has been specially strengthened, and at the same time, the Spanish flag is planted in the places where the Spanish national team can see and the roads that pass through.

This gave the Spanish national team a base feel.

Spain's first two group games were in Innsbruck.

That's why Spain chose to train at Neustifert.

As soon as the team arrived, Spain began their final preparations before the European Championships.

Especially the first game against Italy, it has to be decided by a fight.

It is also a coincidence that Spain, France and Italy have all met in warm-up matches before, but the warm-up matches are warm-up matches, and the European Championship is the European Cup, which is completely different.

In particular, it should be noted that in these two warm-up games, neither side did their best.

……

For Italy, Yang Hao is still very recognized.

After the familiarity of previous warm-up games and the intelligence that Mendiodo had carefully prepared, Donadoni was not content with the traditional Italian defensive football of the past, but wanted to make a change.

From Donadoni's selection, it can be seen that Luka Toney will be the guarantee of this team's attacking front.

But everyone knows that in Italy there is a serious lack of high-level wings.

There is a problem that is common to many teams in Italy right now, and that is metabolism.

Nesta was injured every time he got a big game, so he simply quit the Italian national team and focused on playing for Inter Milan.

Cannavaro is also old, losing his place at Real Madrid, being replaced by Chiellini and Kompany, and also suffering injuries before the European Championships, so the stability of his metabolism will be a test for Donadoni.

In this European Cup, Yang Hao emphasized physical fitness and running the most.

He has a requirement, that is, to strengthen the pressing and counter-pressing in the front court, coupled with the passing and cutting style that Spain is best at in the past, the physical consumption will be a very big test.

This is also the reason why Yang Hao even did not hesitate to equip three physical coaches.

As for the opponent Italy, Donadoni has been repeatedly adjusting the team's lineup.

Many people are speculating whether Italy will use Chiellini in the weak central defenders?

Chiellini has performed well at Real Madrid and has been trained well by Arsene Wenger, but he is a little less experienced.

Materazzi, the most experienced of all, has a problem, he is older, and he has the height of the two-centre-back combination with Barzagli, but lacks pace, agility and turns.

There's nothing wrong with defending frontally, but once you're beaten back, it's almost a hit.

However, Donadoni may also put De Rossi in front of the backline, but there is also a coordination problem between De Rossi and Pirlo, once De Rossi, where will Pirlo be?

And the left wing-back Grosso, who has been in good form lately, with him, or with Zambrotta?

You know, Zambrotta has just helped Barcelona win the Champions League, he has done very well, and he knows Spain very well.

Donadoni kept tweaking his lineup, just not wanting people to guess his start.

The same is true for Yang Hao.

At the new Tivoli Stadium in Innsbruck, when the team participated in the pre-match training to familiarize themselves with the field, Yang Hao signaled everyone to relax as much as possible and basically did not practice any tactics.

The preparations that should be made have been made before, and it is useless to cramming them now.

So, the whole atmosphere is very relaxed.

It is worth mentioning that this time, Yang Hao specially arranged 2 psychologists from Atletico Madrid to accompany the team, just to help the players relieve psychological pressure and give advice to the coaching staff.

After the team's familiarization with the field training, Yang Hao attended the pre-game press conference.

This is the first time he has participated in an important tournament since he took charge of the national team.

And since he took charge of the Spanish national team, he has won all of them.

This is an impressive palmares.

In this regard, Yang Hao said with a smile, "I never thought of continuing this record, this is of no use to me, it is better to let me win the championship to be practical." ”

Regarding Spain's recent form, Yang Hao expressed satisfaction, but did not disclose further details.

'The only thing I can say is that there are 23 players, each one of them is eager to fight, and they all know that this European Championship will be an important milestone for Spain.

'There's nothing I can promise right now, I can only promise that the players I and I will try to play every game.'

"Trust us, we all know exactly what we should do."

A media reporter asked Yang Hao, hoping to reveal the starting lineup list tomorrow night, Yang Hao asked with a smile: "Will you take out your bank card and tell me the withdrawal password by the way?" ”

Everyone at the scene burst into laughter.

As the head coach of the biggest name in world football today, Yang Hao can of course refuse media reporters.

No matter how much they asked, he didn't reveal it, and with a few casual words, he could send the media reporters away.

But Donadoni was clearly a little helpless, especially when it came to Italian journalists.

When they repeatedly pressed Donadoni, the latter was simply unwilling, but the Italian journalist repeatedly insisted.

Finally, Donadoni revealed, "I'll make a decision tomorrow morning." ”

Outcome......

……

In Yang Hao's previous life, there was a term circulated among domestic fans, the European Celestial Empire.

It's Italy.

And it turns out that even the behavior of media reporters is in the same vein.

The game was held on the evening of the 9th, and at 10 a.m. on the 9th, Italian national television announced the starting lineup of the Italian national team tonight.

Goalkeepers: Gianluigi Buffon;

Defence: Zambrotta, Materazzi, Barzagli and Panucci;

Midfielders: Ambrosini, Andrea Pirlo and Gattuso;

Forwards: Di Natale, Luca Toney and Camoranesi.

Whether the specific official list will be this will only be known before the start of the game, but Italian national television reported that Donadoni has announced the list of players to the players, and this is the combination.

Just a few minutes later, Yang Hao, who was far away in Austria, received a call and got this information.

Looking at the list guessed by the coaching staff of the Spanish national team, it is much the same.

The only difference is that Materazzi or Chiellini, Ambrosini or De Rossi.

These are two positions that the Spanish national team cannot determine.

As a result, the Italian national team gave the option.

"If it's true, then we owe it to Italian national television!" Yang Hao said with a smile.

The big war is imminent, leaking the secrets of the national team's preparation to the outside world, and even breaking the news of the national team's starting list in advance, this kind of thing is afraid that only the media of the Celestial Empire will do this, right?

Do they really think that the starting line-up doesn't matter?

After getting this list, Yang Hao convened the coaching staff and the intelligence department to discuss, and finally came to a conclusion that this list should be true.

Yang Hao then convened a meeting of the players.

In view of the characteristics of Materazzi and Barzagli, Yang Hao's request is that tonight's pressing area should focus on the middle line and let Italy attack.

"Aren't they changing their style of play and trying to press out?"

"We fulfill them!"

'Against Materazzi and Barzagli, we have to play behind us, pull and move with passes, have a chance to play behind again, get the players forward and play with our speed.

For Italy's midfield configuration, Yang Hao's requirements are to tackle fiercely, pass and cut when he takes the ball, and grab when he loses the ball, so as to suppress Italy's midfielder.

"The most important thing is to be fast!"

Yang Hao clearly told the Spanish internationals, "What we are talking about now is not a friendly match, not a qualifier, but the first game of the European Championship finals." ”

'Italy don't want to lose and we can't give them a chance to go back and defend tightly, so from the start we have to try to create goals first and force them to attack.'

'Then, we used our midfield skills and passing strengths to attack the opposition's defence.

"I have only one request, the European Championship premiere, not only for mine, but also for many of you here, and I want you to give your best."

"Don't let me down, all the fans who are looking forward to you!"

The players were so encouraged that they couldn't hold back.

……

"With a whistle from Austrian referee Plauters."

"The first match of Group D of Euro 2008 officially kicked off with the much-anticipated match between Spain and Italy."

"It was Italy in the blue jersey who kicked off first."

"Tonight's match is at the New Tivoli Stadium in Innsbruck, Austria."

'Italian striker Luca Toney passed back to Andrea Pirlo and then to the right and to Panucci.

'Panucci tried to get to Camoranesi and we could see that Di Natale also ran to this side to match Camoranesi.

'Italy wants to try to open a breakthrough on their right side.

"Spain's left full-back tonight is Antonio Lopes, this player has strong offensive ability, but the defense is relatively weak, which also reflects Yang Hao's consistent use of troops."

"He is the most pleasing and attacking coach in the whole of Europe."

"Italy didn't break through this time and the ball was tackled by Antonio López."

"Pass it to Iniesta, and knock it back."

'A beautiful one-two on the wing, Antonio Lopes dribbled across the halfway line, tried to go to Villa to link, Panucci fell to the ground and tackled, a very brilliant tackle.

"Look at the Italian counterattack this time."

"Near the halfway, give it to Gattuso and try to pass it to the wing."

'The intention was too obvious, Iniesta tackled the ball.

'Gattuso counter-attacked on the spot, but Iniesta got a nice break away and passed the ball back.

'Xavi Alonso dragged to the end of the midfield and raised his hand to signal his team-mates to steady their tempo.

'But Italy have to be careful, Xavi Alonso is often suspicious of this.'

"Sure enough, a long diagonal pass was given to the right side of the frontcourt."

'Reyes didn't react in time and the ball went out of bounds.'

The Spanish winger raised his hand apologetically.

"I have to say that Xavi Alonso's sudden transfer is sometimes not only surprising and shocking for our fans, but also for his teammates who cooperate with him on the pitch."

"But it has to be said that Italy still have to be careful of Xavi Alonso's long passes."

"There's also a very good long ball in the Italian team, and that's Andrea Pirlo."

'Spain seemed intent on limiting Andrea Pirlo tonight, with Torres being a little further back.

"It's two flanks, Villa and Reyes are both pressed more forward."

……

When Italy threw the throw-in, Spain quickly snatched the ball.

As soon as he grabbed the ball, he immediately passed it continuously, avoided the pressing of the Italian midfielder, passed the ball back to Xavi Alonso and the backline, and reorganized.

Yang Hao stood on the sidelines, silently watching the game, actually observing.

Italy looks like 433 and is actually quite flexible.

Or rather, a bit like 451.

One of the more obvious features is that Donadoni also attaches great importance to pinching Xavi Alonso.

Needless to say, the back line is needless to say, what Yang Hao saw at this time, the middle is lined up, from left to right are Di Natale, Ambrosini, Pirlo, Gattuso and Camoranesi.

But what's the interesting point?

When the ball got to Xavi Alonso, Pirlo stepped in to grab it, but it wasn't too far forward.

Italy's midfield and backfield are relatively tight, but Luca Toney is positioned higher upfront.

With their backline already retreating into the 30-metre zone and the midfield line retreating to the edge of the 30-metre zone, Luca Toney was still walking slowly in the Spanish half.

In fact, there is no blame for him, after all, he is tall and strong, and it costs a lot to run.

After realizing this, Yang Hao immediately walked to the sidelines and shouted at Harvey.

The Barcelona midfielder was close to Yang Hao's side, and when he looked over, he just saw Yang Hao signaling him to put the ball control area in the area from the center line to the 30-meter area.

After understanding this, Xavi called on Iniesta to step back as well, while Xavi Alonso pressed forward.

Full-backs Antonio Lopes and Sergio Ramos on the left and right flanks also stepped forward to form a wide attack.

Spain is not obsessed with passing and penetrating in the middle, but often passes to the two wings, pulling the Italian defense to move with it, and in this way.

Just two minutes or so into the game, Spain created a chance in this way.

The Italian midfielder refused to let the ball get to Spain's feet, and Gattuso took the initiative to steal the ball at Iniesta's feet, but Xiaobai avoided Gattuso's tackle and passed the ball to Antonio López on the left, who pushed forward with the ball.

This time, Antonio López's forward attack failed to pose a threat to Villa, but it also opened up the situation.

"Have you noticed that the physical condition of Italian players is generally not ideal, a little out of shape?" Juanma Lillo asked, apparently seeing the clue as well.

Yang Hao nodded, "There are too few warm-up games." ”

This is actually the concern of many media and fans before the game.

Serie A ended on 17 May, and by tonight's game, Italy had only one warm-up game scheduled.

This kind of intensity is absolutely not enough.

You know, the players have just gone through a long season, they are very tired, and if they don't adjust and recover well, it will be difficult for the players to be in the best shape at the beginning of the European Championships.

The excitement of the game is also an important component.

Some people may think that slow heating is not bad at all.

But the problem is that the slow heat needs to ensure that the team qualifies from the group.

When four teams like Spain, Italy, Portugal and France are drawn in the same group, who dares to slow down?

The group can't get out of the line, do you have a fart for slow heating?

"I think we can speed it up a bit and rush it." Juanma Lillo said.

Spain's start was also a bit cautious, and Yang Hao was also somewhat stable.

At this time, Roca also told Yang Hao a piece of data.

"Since the beginning, the Italian players have only sprinted at 20 kilometers per hour in a few attacks."

After Yang Hao heard this, he immediately laughed.

What does this mean?

It's that Italy is slow in the offensive.

After the previous European Cup qualifiers, as well as Yang Hao's own estimates, Spain should be around 30 kilometers.

Of course, this is just the beginning, but it is enough to reflect some problems.

The sprint speed in the attack is slow, and if you can control the ball, you need to be afraid of it.

But now, Italy can't even control the ball, and the offense can't play speed.

Yang Hao walked to the sidelines again and gestured towards Harvey and the others.

Press it up and attack!

……

When Yang Hao issued the horn of attack, the Spanish players on the field began to pay attention to pressing up, and soon created two shots on goal.

On one occasion, it was Torres with his back to the ball to Villa, who got his feet up near the top of the centre circle to get rid of a defender.

The shot failed to hit the target and was confiscated by Buffon.

Another was a diagonal cross from Reyes on the right and Torres' shot was saved by the onrushing Gianluigi Buffon.

And just when everyone thought that Spain's attack, like Italy's, lacked enough threat, the Spanish midfielder created an attacking opportunity.

Iniesta's continuous passing and pulling with Xavi in midfield was forced by the Italian midfielder and forced to pass back to Xavi Alonso to regroup.

However, as soon as Xavi Alonso stopped the ball, he adjusted slightly and immediately sent a diagonal cross to the left side of the 30-metre area.

Villa pulls back and chests the ball to a stop.

Panucci was the first to come up and get in the way of Villa.

The Spanish striker smashes the ball with his right foot and cuts in laterally.

Although he was closely marked by Panucci, Villa's smash to get rid of the ball was very skillful, and as soon as he turned and cut inside, he immediately followed up with another step.

Villa is not tall and flexible, but the 35-year-old Panucci is a little unable to keep up with Villa's frequency and has been given a chance.

The Spanish striker delivers a through ball with his right foot.

Almost at the same time, Torres, who was still lying in ambush in front of Materazzi and Barzagli, with his back to the goal and looking like he was about to pick up his teammates, suddenly made a sudden stop, turned and started to move forward.

At this moment, Torres's starting speed and explosiveness were in stark contrast to the turning speed of Materazzi and Barzagli.

By the time Italy's two slightly clumsy centre-backs turned, Torres had already cut diagonally behind Barzagli, caught up with Villa's pass and picked up speed past the onrushing Buffon.

Evading the Italian goalkeeper, Torres chased at high speed, caught up with the ball on the left side of the goal, and fired a shot into the empty net to send the ball into the bottom of the Italian net.

"The ball is in!!"

"Torres!"

"Just 13 minutes into the game, Torres opened the scoring for Spain with a wonderful anti-offside one-on-one shot!"

'We saw that Spain's attack was very patient, with successive passes, luring Italy to get up, and then finding Villa through Xavi Alonso's diagonal pass, relying on the individual ability of the stars up front to create chances.

"1 to 0!"

"Fernando Torres scored Spain's first goal of the tournament!"

Everyone in Spain was celebrating wildly on the pitch, and everyone looked so excited.

Yang Hao also turned around with a smile and hugged Juanma Lillo, Guardiola and others who were rushing over, celebrating the goal.

But soon, he walked to the sidelines, shouted at the players, and signaled them to be patient.

He had a hunch that Italy would press out and fight.

……

Facts have proved that Yang Hao's hunch was right.

After scoring in the 13th minute, Italy began to press out frantically and create a threat in front of the Spanish national team's goal.

Especially in the 19th minute, two corners were created in a row.

But just as Italy took the second corner, Pepe got ahead of everyone and headed the ball out of the box.

Andres Iniesta judged the landing spot and headed the ball over to Xavi in midfield.

Xavi stopped the ball and stepped forward, dribbled the ball into a counterattack, and made a diagonal pass to the open left side.

Antonio López stepped forward with great speed, caught up with Xavi's pass, strode the ball towards the Italian goal, and after rushing into the Italian 30-metre area, he made a diagonal pass to the back of the net.

Torres cut in at high speed, and with the inertia of the sprint, he jumped high and headed back in front of the goal with the help of the inertia of the sprint.

Villa arrived and fired a shot in front of goal......

"The ball is in again!!"

"Spain is next!"

"2 to 0!!"

"David Villa scored the second goal for Spain in the 20th minute!"

"It's only been seven minutes since the last goal, it's only been seven minutes!"

"Italy conceded two goals in a row."

"The result is pretty bad."

'We can clearly see that the Italian players are really playing a little too much.

'We can understand that they are desperate for an equaliser, but they have to be clear that they are facing Spain, who have won all 12 of their qualifying matches and are the favourites for the European Championships!

Yang Hao was already smiling from ear to ear on the sidelines.

As he told before the game, he must try to hit the back of Italy, especially the two centre-backs.

When Italy start to press, they will be very empty at the back.

To put it bluntly, neither Materazzi nor Barzagli is a central defender with strong follow-up ability like Pepe or Ramos.

Spain's centre-backs have a comeback ability that Italy doesn't have.

In this case, wanting to kick high and push the defense out is definitely a slow suicide.

If Donadoni didn't believe in evil, he would have suffered.

……

Italy conceded two goals in a row in a short period of time and did show some well-behaved.

Spain also took this opportunity to smoothly control the ball and rhythm, and slowly played a war of attrition with Italy.

But this warm and harmonious situation did not last long.

From the 35th minute of the first half, Italy launched another wave of attacks to try to create goals.

Spain has dealt a head-on blow.

In the 38th minute, Torres received a long pass from Xavi Alonso in front of the field, and when he was marked by Barzagli and Materazzi, the Spanish center chose to make a quick stop in the box and knock back.

Villa followed up with a furious shot.

As a result, the shot was saved by Buffon.

Three minutes later, Reyes also had a long-range shot from outside the area that was blocked by a defender and failed to threaten the goal.

And in the 43rd minute, it was still Spain's left side, Antonio Lopes stepped in and joined forces with Villa on the left wing, but was sandwiched by a number of Italian defenders.

Andres Iniesta ran over to meet his team-mate's ball and, after stopping the ball, another skilful croquette, broke away from Gattuso's defence, created a passing space, and sent a diagonal pass to the back of the Italian defence.

It was Torres, or a quick forward between the two centre-backs.

That's what Torres does best, as he sprinted and immediately shook off two Italian defenders, caught up with Andres Iniesta's pass, and slid into the box with ease.

Although Buffon judged the right direction and fell to the ground to try to block, he was still unable to do anything.

3 to 0!

"A brace!"

"Fernando Torres scored a brace!"

"My God, the Spanish centre-forward's consecutive goals."

"The Italian backline, especially the two centre-backs, couldn't stop Torres at all, and they were pushed out of the defensive position by Torres again and again, scoring again and again."

"Buffon has really done his best."

"We can take a look at this slow-motion replay, the two Italian centre-backs were too slow to turn and Torres' explosive advantage was very evident."

"And we also noticed that Spain often passed the ball behind them in this game, allowing players such as Torres, Villa and Reyes to sprint to chase it."

"It's a very big test for the Italian backline."

'Almost three goals, all of them behind Italy.'

'Italy's biggest problem was that their midfield didn't put enough pressure on the Spanish midfield and counter-attack on the spot in a timely manner.

'This has led to the fact that every time Italy concede a goal in midfield or after a midfield breakaway, Spain can easily pass behind the defence and play with the speed of the attacker.

"Although we all know that Italy's defence is one of the best in the world, once they lose midfield, then it comes with a fragility at the back, and it will be difficult for them to stop the wolves of Spain."

"This is definitely Yang Hao's special targeted deployment before the game, which completely pinched Italy's soft underbelly."

"Especially in the first half, three goals almost mean that Spain has won their first group stage ahead of schedule."

'Donadoni needs to make more changes in midfield.

……

Yang Hao didn't know what Donadoni said to the Italian players when he was in the midfield.

But from the second half, Italy, who were three goals behind, showed a kind of courage and determination to break through.

At half-time, Donadoni replaced Di Natale with Piero and Materazzi with Grosso.

This was a clear attempt to use Piero to attack.

Yang Hao responded immediately, signaling Ramos to keep an eye on Piero.

After Grosso came on, Panucci started to play at central defence, Zambrotta returned to the right and Grosso played on the left.

Since then, Italy has begun to sound the clarion call for a second-half counter-attack.

In the first 30 minutes of the second half, both sides were basically entangled near the halfway line.

Italy was more enthusiastic than ever and the tempo was noticeably quicker.

Piero was in his best area, with frequent opportunities to shoot from distance, but none of them were able to threaten.

In the 58th minute, Spain first sent a clever pass from Xavi, and Reyes kicked the goal from the right side of the edge of the box, which was confiscated by Buffon.

In the 65th minute, Villa sent a through ball and tried to find Torres, but the intention was too obvious and he was held by Buffon.

Although the Italian goalkeeper conceded 3 goals in the first half, the uncle is still the uncle.

Two minutes later, Spain's attack created a corner, Xavi took it, and Pepe's header was saved by Gianluigi Buffon.

The ball fell to the periphery of the penalty area.

But at this moment, Xavi Alonso, who has always been inconspicuous, suddenly came up, stopped the ball with his feet, adjusted it, and directly hit a powerful long-range shot.

Xavi Alonso's shot was groundbreaking.

No one could have imagined that he would suddenly come up, and he would suddenly come with such a kick.

When the ball penetrated the chaotic penalty area at lightning speed and drilled into the right side of the Italian goal, everyone woke up in shock, all in shock at the bouncing ball inside the goal line.

4 to 0!

Lose your marbles!

Spain is crazy tonight!

Italy is also crazy!

Before this game, who would have thought that Italy, which is known for its defensive ability, would suffer such a heavy defeat in the first game of the European Championship after playing 0-1 with Spain in the warm-up match in March.

0 to 4, that's outrageous!

Not to mention that the fans didn't expect it, Yang Hao himself didn't expect that it would be so smooth.

And, there's a lot smoother.

In the 74th minute, Italy created a corner in front.

At this moment, Italy have no intention of winning, they are more hoping to score a goal and save their face.

But even so, they still didn't get their way.

The ball was played hard by Casillas and Xavi Alonso volleyed straight into the air and passed to Xavi, who crossed diagonally to the left rib for Iniesta.

Little White pushed the ball forward and gave it to Villa's feet.

When Huluwa caught up with the ball, she was caught between two defenders, Zambrotta and Panucci.

The Spanish striker made a sharp stop at the edge of the box and spotted his chance to cross the ball.

At this moment, not only Zambrotta and Panucci, but even Barzagli were attracted to it, so that the top of the arc of the big penalty area was already empty.

Torres arrived on a horse, caught up with Villa's cross, stopped, saw Buffon attacking, Torres calmly shot angrily.

The ball arced over Buffon's head and into the Italian goal behind him.

"Hat-trick !!"

"Torres scored a hat-trick!"

"5 to 0!"

"Slaughter! A total slaughter! ”

"No one thought that Italy, which has always been known for its calmness, would encounter such a crazy massacre in the first game of the European Cup."

"This is in the Death Group!"

"When everyone felt that Spain was in the group of death, it might be difficult to make a difference, and maybe even reaffirm the curse of the big hit and death, Spain made their debut with a hearty victory."

"We have to admire Yang Hao's strength in coaching the team, admire Yang Hao's offensive football, and also have to sigh at the offensive football storm that the Spanish national team is now presenting."

"As soon as Yang Hao's team appeared, it shocked the entire European football world!"

……

Even by the end of the game, Italy had not been able to break through Spain's goal.

They created a couple of chances on goal but were never able to threaten.

Spain made its European Championship debut, with Torres' hat trick, Villa and Xavi Alonso's goals, 5-0 victory over Italy!

After this match, the whole of European football was completely shaken.

In the draw of the Group of Death, four teams of equal proportions, as a result, Spain beat Italy 5-0 in their debut, which was simply jaw-dropping.

After the game, the Italian media pointed the finger at Donadoni.

According to the Milan sports newspaper, Italy suffered a 5-0 defeat to Spain on their debut, and Italy struggled in the European Championship.

The Italian authoritative media believes that in this real battle, Yang Hao's team suppressed Italy in all aspects, "Every position of our, under the Spanish attack, is particularly vulnerable." ”

Milan Sports Newspaper said that before the game, Donadoni did not have a high evaluation of Yang Hao's Spain, believing that Spain did not meet a really strong opponent in the qualifiers, so it was able to win 12 consecutive victories.

But in Innsbruck, Donadoni's side suffered a head-on blow, scoring five goals that nearly ended Italy's European Championship journey, and it was an ugly game that put the national team in a quagmire.

According to the Milan Sports Awards, Donadoni was the worst man in the game.

"The wrong arrangement, the wrong starting tactics, is the culprit of Italy's fiasco!"

The newspaper La Repubblica also pointed the finger at the head coach of the Italian national team, but one of the points he accused Donadoni was, why not use De Rossi, why use Ambrosini, who behaved like a disaster?

'It turns out that players like Ambrosini and Gattuso can't provide enough depth in the midfield to even run, so how can you ask them to put in a good performance in this situation?

"De Rossi has performed very well in Roma, but Donadoni is indifferent, in his eyes, there is only AC Milan, only Juventus, only Inter Milan, and not Roma!"

The newspaper apparently somewhat blamed the problem on the contradictions between the city and the team.

……

Unlike the Italian media, which is generally asking questions, the Spanish media is full of chanting.

Even the most positive and optimistic person would never have imagined that Spain would beat Italy 5-0 in their European Championship group stage debut, which is simply unbelievable.

"Being on the spot, after watching the game, I and my fellow Spanish journalists around me had a feeling of dreaming."

'The whole game, Spain played too hard, they were in complete control of the game, they controlled the football, they controlled the tempo.

"Italy played like a fly without a head, playing disorganized and not even finding the direction of the attack."

Marca newspaper even listed the statistics of both sides, Spain had a whopping 66.2% possession, which was almost double that of Italy, while the number of shots on goal reached 22, while Italy had only 12.

Although the numbers don't tell the whole story, Spain's European Championship debut, with an impeccable 5-0 win over Italy, made a good start to the journey of this European Championship.

And the most commendable thing is that even Alfredo, editor-in-chief of As, Cruyff, the godfather of Barcelona, and other column writers, have written articles in their columns, praising Yang Hao's Spain.

Voted Man of the Match was Fernando Torres, who scored a hat-trick.

This is also the only hat-trick in the first round of the group stage in this European Cup.

Moreover, Torres also had an assist.

In the other matchup in the same group, Portugal vs France, Portugal beat France 2-0 thanks to two goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Mereles.

Two teams from the Iberian Peninsula won both in the Group of Death.

It's the 3rd, kneel down and beg for a guaranteed monthly pass! Bye, thanks, blah!!
