Match 41: Slovakia - Italy :: PBP [R]

Gotta put Weiss in now?

 

this group have some amazing defenders such as nelson of NZ and skrtel here along with canza of PAR , cannavaro on the other hand .....

 

Tension in this match now. I love this sport!

 

Seriously, Cannavaro looks absolutely lost or lackadaisical in this tournament, not sure which one. Looks like he isn't really trying or that he's just one step too slow.

 

Agreed. No complaints. Great save there.

 

OH MANNNNNNNN its almost over now. WOWWW

 

Holy BALLS!

 

2-0 Italy are gone!

 

conyooooooooo!!

 

gooooooooooooooooooool 2 a 0 good night Italy!!!

 

2-0 its over , now all i want is for NZ to score a goal against PAR to punish them for using the subs in this match

 

If you puzzle together the replays you can figure it out. from the front angle you can see that the ball hits the defender's knee, from the back angle you see the knee being right behind the goal line.

Therefore the ball didn't cross the line...no goal.

But with the 2-0, it appears to be over for Italy...

 

Awful ball by Pepe, come on now.

 

As we say in Brazil, "p.uta que o pariu."

 

Any chance Italy finishes with 11 men?

 

Nodame is that you

 

4% precisely.

After watching the replay Pepe could have been sent off for intent right there. He was DEFINITELY not going for the ball.

 

Ciao Bella

 

Does anybody know of a good tomato retail company in Italy. I think I want to invest my life-savings now.

 

Robert Vittek, I still know him from Nürnberg in the Bundesliga where he has played for 5 years, he has always been a decent striker, but never stellar. He's 28 years old and plays for Ankaragücü in Turkey.
