Slovakia. Italy under the kosh!

corrected

1. hehe, yes. slovakia 1 italy 0 after the first half...

...and more than right - slovaks deserved even more than just that.
italy non-existing, not even playing the match - no strategy, heavy on the legs - really one of the worst soccer italian teams ever seen at the world cup.

i'm italian, as you know - but honestly slovakia deserves to go.
and italians to go on holiday ;)

see you at the end of the match.

2. They played much better than Italy

I hope they beat those old men

3. yes, they have done so far - but italians are not old. indeed, the older champions are not there.

coach's choice - and risk, of course.

second half on the go.
see you in 45 minutes ;)

10. Both finalists from last time fail to advance. Can't remember if that ever happened before

Both of them were horrible. France had one goal in the tournament. I guess it's hard to score when you can't use your hands.

11. yes, italy was terrible, just a bit better than france.

in its kind of soccer tactics, italy has always needed a playmaker in its history.
we've had Del Piero and Totti lately, and in this tournament Pirlo should have been the one.
but it was a failure - and all in all, the choice to leave Del Piero and Totti at home was not that great idea.
