I notice a lot of people on here/twitter/Facebook etc saying 'us' and 'we' when talking about Italy, who don't seem to be Italian :shifty:

Ireland are our only chance to proceed. The Spaniards will murder our defense. 4:0 at the very minimum there. If Ireland won't take points from Italy, then we're done. Actually, Ireland-Italy will give us the 2nd quarterfinalist because the other two results in this group are known already - two Spanish wins.

Agreed. Had Italy continued the way they were playing, they would have won 5-0. I can't fathom why they stopped.

Italy only have themselves to blame. They adopted the typical pussy approach in the 2'nd half; it was only a matter of time before Croatia scored, and they did. You don't sit back and invite the opponents to attack you, especially not when you need the 3 points, and are only leading by 1 goal. Italy could and should've ended the 1'st half 2 goals up (at least), and they should have started the 2'nd half attacking the Croats and securing the result with a 2'nd goal. Instead, they did the complete opposite. Wasteful in the first half, absolutely pathetic in the 2'nd.

Because the linesman flagged for offside while the replays showed those weren't offside. Almost 50-50, yup :agree:
It's annoying. But what's even more annoying is that, again, there have been awful calls this tournament. Something needs to be done. Italy were penalised on two occasions today, but it could happen to any team. That being said, Italy themselves are to blame.
