England vs Italy
UEFA Nations League
Date: Saturday, 11 June 2022
Kick-off at 19:45 UK/ 20:45 CET
Venue: Molineux Stadium.

Italy might have started this campaign on a dull note but they are kind of making amends for it. They have shot right to the top of the table, despite this being a tough group and now they will spend all of their energy to hold on to this position.

This team which has a rich football heritage, is trying to rebuild from the ground up, and a semi-final appearance in the Nations League will be a huge reward for all of the efforts they are putting in.

Their young core has shown life and it is obvious that they are targeting the 2024 Euro Cup and the 2026 World Cup.

However, on the other side, they have England and this is the cue for drama. These two teams had locked horns in the recently concluded Euro Cup Final, and in Wembley in front of the English crowd the Italians lifted the European Championship.

And for the Three Lions, with a roster full of monstrous talents, this was a huge humiliation. Not only did they lose at the final hurdle in front of their own fans, but they also had to face the tirade of passionate fans who had turned against them.

Forget the 3 points on offer this weekend. The English will be playing for their pride and it is wounded.

Expect a fierce encounter filled with fouls, and count on goals to come from either end of the pitch.

England vs Italy Head-to-head (h2h)
The last 5 encounters in a row had goals from both teams.
The last 3 meetings had finished 1-1 at the end of ninety minutes.
The two had met in the 2014 World Cup and then the Italians had recorded a 2-1 win.
And when the two locked horns in the 2012 Euro Cup Quarterfinal, the Azzurri had once again won via penalties.

英格兰对意大利
国家联赛
日期:2022年6月11日，星期六
英国时间19:45 /欧洲时间20:45开球
地点:队球场。

意大利可能在这场运动中开始了一个沉闷的调子，但他们在某种程度上弥补了它。尽管这是一个很难对付的小组，但他们已经一路冲到积分榜的首位，现在他们将竭尽全力保住这个位置。

这支拥有丰富足球遗产的球队正在努力重建，能够在国家联赛的半决赛中亮相将是对他们所有努力的巨大回报。

他们年轻的核心展现出了活力，很明显，他们的目标是2024年欧洲杯和2026年世界杯。

然而，在另一边，他们有英格兰，这是戏剧的线索。这两支球队在最近结束的欧洲杯决赛中交手，在温布利，意大利人在英国观众面前举起了欧洲杯冠军奖杯。

而对于三狮军团来说，这是一个巨大的耻辱，因为他们拥有一大批天赋异禀的球员。他们不仅在最后一关输给了自己的粉丝，而且还不得不面对那些反对他们的热情粉丝的长篇大论。

忘掉这个周末提供的3分吧。英国人会为他们的骄傲而战，但它受伤了。

期待一场充满犯规的激烈交锋，并期待着来自球场两端的进球。
