we can finally forget the italian squad under trappatoni.
this is the real italians.
i have never seen italy play that way in the world cup - attack, attack and attack!!!
what a fantastic display!!!
italy 2 - 0 ghana

great to see them att... their att players r great but i dunno y the manager like to play so defensive everytime...
countdracula
it was a game where experience triumph...the africans had possession but no purpose, bunch of schoolboys, the italians were 'old' men but full of wit. somehow african teams have outstanding individuals but as a collective group, tribal instint rules and the lack of tactical sense will see all 5 teams going home early...

This could just be Italy's world cup.

i think italy is now one of the favourites.
they were really fast in attack and strong in defence.
the two front players toni and gilardino is really good.
pirlo's opener was amazing too.

one thing about those african countries is that i feel that they run alot, but they cannot do anything with the ball..they're superior in physical attributes,but they lack the technique of the top european south american teams..

Yup a great match by Italy. Finally they show a balance blend of attacking and defending.
Credit to Ghana and the other african teams, but in reality eventhough Ghana did create some decent chances, the chances created by Italy were even more.
