Interesting match so far, though not that much going on. Denmark are knocking their heads against the Italian defence. It has been dangerous a few times but this always happens when Italy plays. Cannavaro has been nothing short of majestic so far, totally different player from Inter's.

Going forward, there are a lot of long balls being played and all of them suck. Vieri has barely touched the ball, Del Piero hasn't done anything nor has Totti. Of the 3 Camo has been the least disappointing.

Looking forward to the 2nd half though, I know Italy are going forward sooner or later. :cool:

Problem lies with the distribution of the ball in the midfield. Whenever we get the ball, we pass it bad. We need Pirlo now. Cassana at this moment won't help much, since he will just expose our wings more since DP is actually defending a bit. Other than that, DP, Totti and Vieri are not doing well. If we continue like this, we will be out by the group stages... COME ON ITALIA!

To be honest, i havent seen Zanetti having the ball in the first half. I hope he subtitutes him with Pirlo. We need some creativity in our midfield.

World class? Come on. The save on Del Piero was very nice but Totti's shot was deflected so bad that it would have been hard not to save it.

Both keepers showed their worth. A number of great saves that deserve some applause. And Cannavaro has been superb the whole of first half :cool: Too many aimless long balls though and not much flowy ground passes - I hate that.

As for the forwards, I don;t see DP-Totti-Vieri gelling up AT ALL!
I hope Trap has something up his sleeve for the second half.
