Another boring game without Ale

Well done for our Irish men over here.

 

[king Ale]

Forza Azzurri.

Fuck mediocre Italy, this team would struggle to finish second in the group stages of the world cup.

 

[king Ale]

How is the standings btw?

 

[Alen]

I don't want to take the joy away from our Irish friends. They should be happy and celebrate.
But the way they celebrate a draw against the very weak, and on top of it, 10 men Azzurri, makes theim look as if their team is Liechtenstein or Estonia

How is the standings btw?

Italy 14
Ireland 12
Bulgaria 7 (and a match less)

This time I watched 45min. Better than the last game vs Mont.... You just feel there's nothing worth watching putting Buffon aside.

Sometimes you need names to keep a good atmosphere of such a game.

So does the way we've been playing recently, before tonight.

Forza Azzurri once more

 

[nasser]

the three juve players play a very good match especially iaquinta, and there was a clear penalty for chiellini

 

[Max]

Well done Ireland!

 

[The Curr]

If only Trap and Stephen Ireland would kiss and make up. We could take on the world

For the first time since his re-appointment, I begin to doubt Lippi.

he gets a pass on this one....not much can be done when you're down to 10 men for nearly 90 minutes

If I know Lippi, Pazzini's going to suffer.

I think I know what you meant...but Lippi defended him right after the game and attacked the ref.

True. But just look at the midfield that finished the game. Ireland should've won and they should, in fact, be disapponted not to.

I said earlier in this thread that we're still a good, but not great team. I'm not even sure of that. After you take out the players you don't like/aren't NT material who do you replace them with?

and Chiellini, that's it.

Can't remember Italy dominating a whole tournament.
They always struggle to make it to the cups, and eventually struggle in the group phase but they certainly grow in tournaments like these

One of the reasons why I think this is a fantastic result is that we played this game without Duff and McGeady (both injured) who are our two best attacking players.
