England and Italy, for two giants of European football, rarely play one another.
Tournament-wise, they faced one another in the 3rd/4th-place play-off at the 1990 World Cup, and before that it was Euro 80. England lost both matches by one goal.
Sunday's Euro 2012 quarter-final will be their first competitive contest in almsot 15 years and their first meeting in 10 years.
In 2002, Elland Road played host to a spring friendly as Naples-born Vincenzo Montella's airplane celebration took off twice after Leeds United's Robbie Fowler scored on his home ground.
