Looking forward to tonight's game, Germany will be red hot favourites but Italy have a track record of pulling out the stops at the later stages of tournaments.
Enthralling semi final this evening between those old friends France and Germany with the latter dominating but a goal down on the stroke of half time courtesy of a dubious penalty.
My understanding is that there is a bet between the countries that the loser pays our normal contribution to the EU.
The final tonight hopefully France and Portugal will serve up a thriller as the tournament hasn't lived up to expectations. The best game in my view was between Italy and Spain.
