Video: Prandelli hails Spain's 'precise identity'

SOUNDBITE (Italian) Cesare Prandelli, Italy head coach (on Spain):“Spain is much better obviously than us as seen with their ease in passing through the group stage. They have consolidated their game, they have a precise identity, they are the favourites, without a doubt. But we are looking forward to facing them and try to put them in difficulty. I’m convinced we can give them problems.”

SOUNDBITE (Italian) Cesare Prandelli, Italy head coach (on continuing the tournament without Balotelli):

“Without Mario, we will need to work as a team even more, so, we will work according to this. Offensively, it’s useless describing them. We have players with various characteristics, but the spirit is to encompass even more the team.”
