They didn't play great the second half. Italy's defence was **** hot and were constantly closing them down.
Regardless of penalties.
If they had played well enough then we wouldn't have even got to penalties. Whether Gareth made the right decision or not.

I agree, the possession in the 2nd half was woeful....we knew that Italy have a passing game and hold on to the ball better than any other team, even Spain, and we didn't capitalise enough when we had the ball.
Having said that...it was still too late to bring on 2 potential penalty takers with 1 minute to go.
