D-Day for the Italians
I'll have half an eye on this one while I'm working this afternoon. Join me if you can.

We are all former students at Lakenheath High School and other public schools in East Anglia. We were in school in the 70s and 80s and drank deeply from the well of British culture of those decades - the pints, the telly, and of course the footie!

Early penalty shout for the Italians!
Penalty shout for Sweden! Surely that was a handball. Again, waved away!
It’s not a pretty game, but at the very least it’s nice to the the San Siro bouncing. It’s been a while since I’ve watched a game where the atmosphere is this intense here.
Coming down to the end of the first half. Italy are still 1-0 down. The Swedes are likely to park the bus in the second half and try to hit them on the break. This one is delicately poised.
Nearly an hour gone and it's still 0-0. Panic stations?
Italy hit the bar!
The Italians are getting a large dose of their own medicine tonight, with loads of diving and time wasting from the Swedes now. Time is ticking away at San Siro is starting to get quiet.
Five added minutes!
