Default Are we anyone's biggest rival ?

Just read one of the thread on here asking who was our biggest rival and got to thinking :

Are we anyone's ?

I can't find a team that would put us ahead of their rival list.
Can you ?

These days, that's probably true. Although it's due more to recent results than historic "rivalry." In this regard, Italy doesn't have any true rivals in the soccer sense (kinda like France). Teams like Brazil, Germany etc. are rivals in the sense that they are direct competitors for the same trophy we want, but otherwise there isn't any substantial rivalry there either.

Ok, you're right... I've taken it too far. I'll stope with the pictures from 2000.......

98 is still fair game though right?



Seriously though, it would be great to meet in Germany wouldn't it..... At least it would mean that both sides have advanced past the second round....

Bah, humbug, I don't even care about '98.

Yes, it would be great to meet, especially given our group.

And please, smack Korea around if you can. France would no longer be Italy's biggest rival if you guys could hook us up.
