Honestly don’t know what to make of this from an England perspective. Italy giving up quite a few chances and Spain can’t finish. Spain’s pressing is causing problems but their defence is so high up that the counter is on every time. Good luck working this out if we get there Gareth.
We'd be the underdogs against either tbh.
These are 2 very beatable teams. Home advantage as well.

Don't see how, bookies wouldn't have us that way, highest seeded team?, superior squads to both, game's at our gaff, we have looked the most convincing in the knockouts. The positives go on
So what exactly makes us the underdogs? I fancy us to beat either of these, France were our only concern and they had an off day
Either of these teams dominate the game against us. We beat them by keeping it tight at the back, waiting for mistakes to pounce on. Tactics won’t change from that perspective, that’s been the Southgate way the whole tournament.
You think this Italy team would dominate a game Vs us? Spain may have more possession but dominate? We must be watching a different tournament. Severely underrating us. As said before, if our name was France or Portugal or Germany people would be wetting themselves over us
I don't understand why we would be waiting either when we have looked comfortable going forward in every game. We were comfortably the better side Vs Germany and Germany are on the same level as these two. We are organised but we don't sit back at all
Superb finish from Morata. The sixth chance and Spain finally get the goal they deserve. We want ET. We demand ET. We demand penalties too if it's not too much to ask.

Nah, we’re decent but these two are clearly the best two football teams in the tournament. They are still beatable but if England can do it, it won’t be because we’re a more attractive side. It’d be a scrappy 1-0 with a late goal or something in extra time. Against good teams, we play to grind out results, don’t get too giddy over a 4-0 against Ukraine.

No chance. Spain would probably have more possession but i doubt they'd dominate. Remember they couldn't beat Sweden, Poland or Switzerland in 90 minutes and conceded 3 to an average Croatia side.
Italy would be tough but we've seen tonight they're not as great as people make out. Spain could've scored 3 easily.

We want ET.
We demand ET.
I said 2-1 to Italy in ET so I'm not changing my mind but Spain have passed the ball so well.

Would mean Spain have had it 3 times and Italy twice.
Although Croatia had done similar in 2018 if I remember rightly.
Spain keep missing good goal scoring chances, how is that quality
Everything is better, Only 1 goal allowed in 20 matches.
