it was close, yes - but we were still the better team overall. so "easy win for italy" is just dead wrong.
italy scored from a penalty and defended with 9 players ever since, not even trying anything offensively, just hoping to make it to the penalty shootout somehow.
and concerning injuries, we have similar problems: reus and gündogan missing for the whole tournament, khedira out injured after just 15 minutes (will be missing the semi final for sure), gomez out injured after 70 minutes (will be missing the rest of the tournament)...
It's ridiculous how hard you try.
