Insignia dazzling
It is undoubtedly the man of this quarter-final.
Lorenzo Insigne was the real animator of the Italian attack.
In all the right moves, he could have delivered a first decisive pass within a quarter of an hour of play for Bonucci, finally refused for an offside (13th).
He could have delivered a second for Spinazzola, who missed the frame (66th).
He could have delivered a few more, if Still had been more inspired.
It is therefore alone that he illuminated the meeting, with a sumptuous strike that came to lodge in the skylight (44th).
Maestro.

Verratti reigns supreme in the middle
It has been a long time since Marco Verratti had illuminated a meeting like this. Author of a near-perfect match, the Parisian midfielder unveiled his entire technical palette during this quarter-final. Defensively first, where its folds have long relieved the very offensive Spinazzola. During the outings then, where his accuracy combined with that of Jorginho, also impeccable, allowed Italy to erase the duo Witsel-Tielemans. Offensively finally, where his very high pressing put Vertonghen in difficulty, allowing him to slide a ball towards Barella, author of the opening scoring (31st). A capital performance for the "Little Owl".
Donnarumma gets thicker
Expected at Paris Saint-Germain at the end of the Euro, Gianluigi Donnarumma confirms his status as a very tall future.
The young Italian goalkeeper (22) once again lived up to his reputation this Friday in Munich.
Author of some beautiful parades, he has constantly spoken in his defense, showing himself to be both reassuring and precious.
If he could not do anything on the penalty from Lukaku (45th + 2), he disgusted the Belgians at the end of the match, playing skillfully with the clock in added time.
Boss.

Flops
The Belgian defense has shown its limits
Despite convincing results at the start of the Euro, the Belgian defense has been overtaken by its limits. Composed of the three old briscards Alderweireld, Vertonghen and Vermaelen (101 years old between them), the rearguard of the Red Devils suffered in the face of the speed of the Italian offensives. At fault on both goals, the three most experienced players of the Belgian selection had a difficult evening. As the whole team of Roberto Martinez in fact ...
Tielemans, a disappointing Euro
Author of a very good season with Leicester, Youri Tielemans again delivered a disappointing performance with his selection.
Uninspired, the former Monegasque crossed this Euro like a ghost, like his defensive retreat on the goal of Insigne (44th), where he was erased with a simple hook.
Warned in the 21st for a foul on Verratti, he did not stand the comparison against the solid Italian midfielder.

The tile for Spinazzola
This is the big black spot of the evening for Italy. If Ciro Immobile had a delicate match, missing most of his initiatives, it was Leonardo Spinazzola who worried all of Italy. Real revelation of the Euro, the left side of AS Roma was forced to give way to Emerson for the last ten minutes. In the middle of the race, he stopped dead, holding himself behind his thigh before collapsing on the lawn, in tears. Evacuated on a stretcher, he would suffer from a ruptured Achilles tendon according to Sky. Big blow for Italy.
