Italy were meanwhile labelled dark horses going into the competition and have been living up to the tentative hype. Roberto Mancini’s team needed extra time to overcome Austria in the round of 16 but were the standout side in the first round and will be difficult opponents for Roberto Martinez’s Belgium.
The two nations go head-to-head in Munich, with a semi-final fixture against the winners of Switzerland vs Spain awaiting the victors.
