Righto, thanks for your company. Ta-ra.

Spain play France or Belgium in he final, ending Italy's unbeaten run at San Siro and world-record 37-game unbeaten run. That was a lot of fun.

Full-time: Italy 1-2 Spain
90+5'
Italy win a free-kick 40 yards from goal, dead centre, so get men forward and this is the game ... but Calabria's dink skids through to Unai Simon, who has to then race out to collects another ball into the box. That's got to be it.
90+5'
It's important to say that Spain were bossing this even before Bonucci got sent off.
90+4'
Oh, I forgot to say, on 84 minutes Sergi Roberto replaced Gavi. He had a very acceptable night.
90+3'
Apologies, my system crashed again, but we're playing five minutes of added time, Spain monopolising possession and you'd expect.
90'
Donnarumma humps long, but Spain see it away. I wonder if he comes up for a corner and scores, whether the crowd will still give him gyp.
90'
Spain have disappeared the time beautifully here, Yeremi drawing yet another Italian foul.

Oyarzabal is booked for fouling Calabria.
88'
Busquets absolutely loves this kind of gear, lofting a lavish ball out to Pino. He finds Azpilicueta whose cross is blocked, and Spain have another corner.
88'
But Spain have a corner. This time it goes short!
86'
Spain have panicked just as much as you'd have expected them to, which is to say not at all. They've taken back control of the game as if they never conceded, and there's no reason to think they'll let another one in.

GOAL! Italy 1-2 Spain (Pellegrini) Really! Spain have a corner and Chiellini heads away then, when Pino pokes tamely back to Pau Torres, he's too weak in the tackle! Chiesa streaks clear, squares, and Pellgrini taps home a livener! We got ourselves a ball-game!
80'
Yeremi has had a really good half. Spain might just be back, if ever they were away.

Spain have played so many passes, had so many touches of the ball. pretty much every players has played well too, and after roughly 39 hours of possession, Yeremi sakes past two challenges then fires a terrific pass-cross into Oyayzabal who should score! But his banged sidefooter is too close to Donnarumma, who gets down really well to parry clear.
77'
Spain have played beautifully tonight. Their possession has not only been plentiful but purposeful.
76'
Merino slides a ball in behind seeking Oyarzabal, but Donnarumma is out shaprly to smother.
75'
To be clear, Spurs' Gil is not his name, it's Bryan Gil of Spurs.

Spain send on Merino for Koke and Spurs' Gil for Sarabia.
