I like the Italian attack so far but the defense is not what I'm used to seeing.

This is unlike any Italian team I've seen in my lifetime. They're attacking well but playing poor defense. The coach has really changed the way the team plays. I know he wanted to be more like Spain and not play the usual Italian style of defense first but I feel like they're giving up way too many good chances and got a bit lucky that first half.

I could see Italy pulling off the upset if they lock down their end a bit better.
