So 22 and a half million Italians had their hopes trashed to the ground in less than 2 hours. No wonder the Spaniards were not interested in the biscotto when they played Croatia. They knew they could decimate the italians any time.

not only are spain fantastic footballers, they also predict the outcome: they knew they would meet italy again in the final.
