The quarter-finals come to a close with a mouth-watering clash between the perennial under-achievers of Spain and the perennial slow-starters-but-somehow-manage-to-turn-it-arounders. Why not enjoy Spain’s long since predicted choke in the company of our technical mumbo-jumbo enforced simplified drinking game.
Spain v Italy Drinking Game - 7.45pm Live on BBC1 & RTE2
General Forfeits
- one finger every time the word ‘perennial’ is used.
- two fingers every time the commentators mentions that a player may, but we know probably won’t because clearly David Villa is going to Barca, make a move to the Premier League.
- four fingers if the commentator points out the terrifying reality that after this week, we’ve got a full month of no football until the Premier League starts.
- eight fingers if you hear some sobbing.
Italy
- one finger every time Gianluigi Buffon is referred to as the ‘best goalkeeper in the world’ despite the fact that barely anyone has seen him play since the World Cup because Juventus haven’t been in the Champions League and Serie A is too boring for anyone to actually broadcast over here.
- two fingers every time Buffon is spotted wearing that neckerchief thing making him look a bit like a hobo.
- six fingers if he’s spotted with a sign that says ‘will save penalties for food’.
Spain
- two fingers if the amount of tattoos that Sergio Ramos has is brought up to skilfully segue into talking about David Beckham.
- four fingers if Carlos Puyol hairstyle is likened that of Sideshow Bob.
- eight fingers if Puyol tries to kill Bart Simpson.
