Euro 2012 Final Spain vs Italy ESPN Live Stream: The Stage is Set

Jul 01, 2012 02:13 PM EDT

The day is finally here. 

Italy and Spain will face off and battle for the 2012 Euro Cup.

Spain are the defending champions. Combined, Italy and Spain will be the last four European clubs to win the Cup since they have both managed to win the last three years.

Nothing has been more enjoyable than watching an Italy team that likes to attack. They play passing soccer, starting from the goalkeeper to the strikers. 

This Italy team can play, and play with the best in the business. 

On the other hand, the Spanish team is not very exciting to watch.

Spain, defending European and World champions, have been repeatedly criticized for playing a boring brand of soccer. Where there are no strikers and you slow down the game and pass the ball to death, almost lulling your opponent to sleep before striking at the opportune moment. 

Italy coach Cesare Prandelli is confident his side can solve the Spain puzzle and lift the Euro 2012 title.

Prandelli claimed his players do not fear Spain and felt his side were better prepared to face the defending champions now than when they clashed in their opening group game, where the match finished 1-1.

Do not miss this matchup as incredible stars go head to head. Xavi and Andres Iniesta will lead Spain on the field. While Italy will depend on Andrea Pirlo and  Mario Balotelli.
