Team of Euro Fantasy Scout: Germany vs Italy

Euro Fantasy Scout Germany vs Italy

A spirited Welsh side stunned the Belgians in a brilliant attacking game last night, taking advantage of the glaring defensive frailties that were present because of the absence of Vertonghen and Vermaelen.

Wales would take heart in the fact that they beat the number 1 European side without Gareth Bale being on the score sheet, showing the world that they no longer are a one- man team.

On the fantasy front, it started of as a great day with Nainggolan drilling a shot into the back of the net and it looked as if Belgium would completely run away with it, helping KDB and Lukaku to be on the score sheet, but it just wasn’t meant to be.

Let’s get to business now!

Now, I already have Julian Draxler in my starting lineup for this game!

This should be a very tactical encounter and I expect both sides to sit on the ball rather than go all out for the kill. Thus, this fixture could head towards penalties, something that Germany are very good at, but something that Conte too wouldn’t mind much.

I bring in Hector for Sagna, as Sagna plays tomorrow. I do not transfer out Meunier or Jedrzejczyk even though they have scored a point and I would eventually be keeping them on the bench because I want to cover all my bases. If any of the French players get injured in training or warm up tomorrow and do not make an appearance, that one point from Meunier and Jedrzejcyk would be very precious.

Hector has been defensively very sound and in a game that shouldn’t be played with a lot of attacking zest, I feel Hector should come out with a clean sheet.

The second substitution that I make is bringing in Giacherreni for Griezmann. Again, I have substituted a French player because of the reasons mentioned above.

The Italian defence is impenetrable, something they have maintained for generations together. Conte would ensure that that remains the case tonight as well.

Captain for this game: Julian Draxler

This may seem perplexing , especially against an Italian defence, but looking at how unpredictable the knockouts have been, I wouldn’t be surprised if this tursn out be 1-1 or 2-2 draw and thus, I wouldn’t want to keep a defender as my captain.

Other Impact Players: Thomas Mueller, Mario Gomez, Grazianno Pelle, Florenzi, Chielleni, Boateng
