23:25 (IST)27 JUN 2016

For Spain their campaign comes to a disappointing but justifiable end. The Italians never for once looked like they were going to lose this game as La Roja failed to get their passing game going 

23:24 (IST)27 JUN 2016

Germany have never beaten Italy in a major competition. Conte will have the advantage in the next round

23:23 (IST)27 JUN 2016

THATS IT!! Italy will face Germany in the Quarter Finals! The holders are out!!

23:22 (IST)27 JUN 2016

93' Conte is over the moon! He has some serious hang time as he jumps on the roof of the dugout!!

23:21 (IST)27 JUN 2016

92' Well everybody in white pushed forward and Spain got caught on the classic counter. Darmian received a brilliant diagonal from Insigne on the right and he found Pelle who just volleyed it home from close range!! 

23:19 (IST)27 JUN 2016

90' ITS OVER!!! Pelle makes it 2-0!!! 

23:18 (IST)27 JUN 2016

90' GREAT SAVE BUFFON!! Pique stretches to get his legs to the ball and divert it to goal but the captain dives and rescues his team

23:17 (IST)27 JUN 2016

88' Motta receives a yellow for infringement as the Spanish players huddle around the referee complaining

23:15 (IST)27 JUN 2016

86' Pedro almost gets on the end of a low ball and from the resulting corner he blazes a volley to Mars!

23:14 (IST)27 JUN 2016

85' Italy win the ball in the middle of the park and Insigne drifts past one challenge and then has an effort from distance which De Gea saves. Never going to beat him from there!!

23:12 (IST)27 JUN 2016

84'  Florenzi is now coming off to be replaced by Darmian

23:11 (IST)27 JUN 2016

83' Juanfran makes a heroic attempt on the right flank to keep Fabregas' ball in but can't prevent the goal kick

23:09 (IST)27 JUN 2016

82' Insigne comes on for Eder

23:09 (IST)27 JUN 2016

81' Aduriz has not completely recovered from that fall as Pedro replaces him 

23:08 (IST)27 JUN 2016

78' Will Spain save it? Italy looking weary now as we enter that last 10 minutes of the game

23:05 (IST)27 JUN 2016

77' Pique has a go now!! Buffon once again to the fore. Spain making Italy nervous!

23:05 (IST)27 JUN 2016

76' Iniesta with a thundering effort reminiscent of his strike against Chelsea but not with the same accuracy as Buffon palms it away!

23:04 (IST)27 JUN 2016

75' Someone pour cold water on Conte quick!! He's on fire!! The manager kicks the ball away in anger as Giaccaherini fails to control the ball

23:03 (IST)27 JUN 2016

74' OFFSIDE!! Silva plays an acute pass for Vasquez and he tips it onto the post but he is flagged offside.

23:00 (IST)27 JUN 2016

71' RAMOS GOES WIDE!! Fabregas whips in a corner and Ramos heads wide after emerging the highest from the crowd of players. They are getting closer

22:59 (IST)27 JUN 2016

70' GREAT ATTEMPT!! By far the best move from Spain so far. Iniesta asserting more influence in forward areas as he finds Aduriz on the edge of the box and the striker is very close to passing it into the far corner of net but is just wide

22:57 (IST)27 JUN 2016

68' De Gea's attempted chip pass out from defence to Pique ends up in a throw for the Italians.  Sums up their current predicament really

22:55 (IST)27 JUN 2016

67' Spain are playing right into Italy's hands so far! They have got try something different before this game slips away from them as another cross harmlessly out of play

22:54 (IST)27 JUN 2016

65' Conte has got his tactics spot on so far but Italy have to take their chances

22:52 (IST)27 JUN 2016

64' Eder causing all sorts of problems drawing another foul

22:51 (IST)27 JUN 2016

61' HOW ARE ITALY STILL ONLY 1-0 AHEAD!! Pelle sprays it wide for De Sciligio who has two blue shirts to aim at and his cross finds De Gea, but it slips through his arms as well! And then somehow Spain clear their lines

22:48 (IST)27 JUN 2016

60' Italy were on the attack once again as Pique completely blocks off Eder's run but referee waves play on! Strange decision

22:46 (IST)27 JUN 2016

58' He picks himself up now and should be fine

22:45 (IST)27 JUN 2016

57' Aduriz's header is over from Juanfran's cross and his fall was very heavy crashing onto the ground. He's stayed that way and the referee has stopped play

22:44 (IST)27 JUN 2016

54' Should have been 2-0!! Eder was through on goal after Pelle put him through but in the 1-on-1 situation he was unable to slot it past De Gea!!

22:43 (IST)27 JUN 2016

54' Pelle goes into the book for nothing. Looked like simulation from Fabregas. 

22:41 (IST)27 JUN 2016

53' Thiago Motta comes on De Rossi

22:40 (IST)27 JUN 2016

52' Fabregas from distance but over the bar, but Spain growing in confidence

22:39 (IST)27 JUN 2016

51' Much better start from Spain this half. Another free kick causes slight problems in the Italian box but Buffon eventually gathers

22:38 (IST)27 JUN 2016

49' Silva delivers and De Rossi flicks it behind for a corner! Morata then directs a close range header straight at Buffon from the corner

22:36 (IST)27 JUN 2016

48' Handball against Bonucci! Spain free kick

22:35 (IST)27 JUN 2016

46' And already Spain are on the back foot! First Pique just about cleared a ball behind for a corner and then Ramos had another nervy moment as Giaccherini went to ground.

22:33 (IST)27 JUN 2016

We are back underway

22:33 (IST)27 JUN 2016

Aduriz is coming on for Nolito A change in system. Will probably be a 4-4-2 or a 4-5-1 now in order to get at that back three who have had a very comfortable outing so far

22:30 (IST)27 JUN 2016

Italy's pressing has not given Spain time on the ball what so ever! La Roja have not managed a single successful tackle so far. Del Bosque has to fix both aspects of his team's game in his team talk

22:18 (IST)27 JUN 2016

Half Time Italy 1-0 Spain

22:18 (IST)27 JUN 2016

45' DE GEA TO THE RESCUE AGAIN! Giaccherini is like a player reborn in this tournament! The winger cuts inside skips past two defenders and bends it towards the far top corner but the United stopper acrobatically tips it over, once again keeping La Roja in the game

22:14 (IST)27 JUN 2016

43' Now Fabregas fouls De Sciligio but the left wing back made a meal of that one

22:14 (IST)27 JUN 2016

42' Morata receives a yellow card for a stamp on De Rossi! Might have been  harsher punishment as the striker left his foot there a few seconds after initial contact

22:13 (IST)27 JUN 2016

40' Am I watching the right game. Seems like the Italians and the Spanish have switched playing styles. De Azzurri are the ones playing the passing football and the Spanish are struggling to make their passing work!

22:10 (IST)27 JUN 2016

38' Chiellini now has the most goals in the current Italian squad

22:09 (IST)27 JUN 2016

36' Silva's delivery is too deep. Ramos stretches but can't get to it. He was flagged offside anyway

22:08 (IST)27 JUN 2016

35' That should put a smile on the manager's face. Spain really have been anonymous this half. Will that goal spur them into life? They have a free kick

22:06 (IST)27 JUN 2016

33' Eder drives a powerful low free-kick. De Gea spills it, Giaccahrini manages to lay it off to Chiellini and he taps it home! Finally reward for Italy's attacking play! 

22:04 (IST)27 JUN 2016

32' CHIELLINI SCORES! 1-0 to Italy!!
