Rafa Benitez: "Look out for Thiago Motta"

Rafa Benitez has said that England must look out for midfielder Thiago Motta against Italy at Euro 2012.

Motta, who has not missed a game for the Italians so far, is expected to start against the Three Lions despite being described as a doubt due a hamstring issue earlier in the week.

"It would be some result for England to beat [the Italians]," Benitez wrote in The Telegraph.

"You should look out for Thiago Motta. Believe me. Motta is left-footed, good in the air, not fast, but he passes the ball so well."

England take on Italy for a place in the semi-finals tonight.
