For the gold medal we will have a very exciting game between the best passing offense (Italy) and the best rushing offense (Finland) of the tournament.
This match up will have the two best teams up front, as a very fast Italian DL led by DE Rosi Leonardo and DT Cazzaniga Riccardo will face a big challenge against the strong finish OL and the star RBs tandem of Pajarinen and Kaasinen.
At the other side of the ball, the solid finish secondary will have their hands full covering Jacob Bindini and specially Filippo Petrillo, who had a strong connection with early MVP candidate QB Zerbo Alessandro.
This should be a close game between two strong teams with very different offensive approaches. The small details could end up making the difference as Finland will have to take better care of the football and Italy will have to contain dangerous finish returner Eerola.
