Found this cool video and wanted to share it with you guys. Toni and Ribery giving each other crap about their respective NTs in preparation for Euro 2008. Cracked me up.
Italians aren't exactly known for their sharp humour and witty remarks. Just sit around and try to be pretty
Cannavaro and Thuram were good buddies too at Parma, I believe. I think the reality is other than idiotic and caustic personalities such as Domenech and Materazzi, the majority of players on the two sides get along, even if the rivalry means a lot to them as well. Despite being a huge supporter of Les Bleus, I have a little Italian blood in me, and when I occasionally meet up with cousins who are more Italian than I am, it's exciting, especially watching the matches together, like the qualifiers, even though we typically settle our differences with PES.
Hey, we appreciate it, buddy, and all the best to you against Spain. I hope that is a thrilling match, I'll definitely watch it with interest.
