Hey man, that's a real dream, and something hopefully you and I will witness. Don't knock it.

Balotelli using the few brain cells he has is more likely than a united Africa.

That performance tho can't believe it!

Italy will somehow still qualify though. They'll sneak through with a draw.

It really looked like they didn't give a shit about this game. I imagine they decided to stop caring once they felt that heat

That pathetic Italian mentality

It was clear by the last 20 mins that they were gonna accept the 1-0 loss. They couldn't even run and trap the ball properly, zero interest to play football. Happy to play slowly and as if they were winning 3-0. Most infuriating and frustrating performance I can remember at a World Cup

u kno its the same thing i thought. they looked like the couldnt b bothered. i know they verbalise that they treat all opponents the same way but i think in the deep recesses of the players' minds they thought costa rica would have been easy..so much shit performances out there

Crashing out in the group stages 2 world cups in a row would be ridiculous.

 

[Nomuken]

Thiago Motta's wasted chance keeps playing back in my head all day

 

[Salvo]

I think we can get a draw but it will depend on the attitude of the team, I can just see Suarez or Cavani sinking us.

 

[Juventino[RUS]]

Prandelli's fails for the vital games are pathetic - line up and subs in the final of euro, line up and subs yesterday he is like conte - never learn

 

[Salvo]

I don't think any subs wouldve changed the match yesterday, the team just wasn't there. It was ridiculous. The starting 11 I guess couldve been better but that performance was atrocious.

 

[Emmet]

Italy haven't won the second game of a group stage since Euro 2000.

Fucking ridiculous

 

[Juventino[RUS]]

He ruined everything with subs, they were wrong, 4231 doesn't worked because the gap between Pirlo - DDR and Cassano was so huge, that it was impossible to build up play with short passing and italian squad were forced to play long balls

 

[Emmet]

Never seen Cassano ever misplace so many passes

 

[juventus4life]

I still can't believe Italy just got beaten by Costa Rica.

 

[Juventino[RUS]]

He even could swap formation into his favorite 4312 with replacing Motta on 2nd forward
Marchisio - pirlo - DDR
Candreva
Balotelli - Cassano
Or 433
Candreva - balotelli - Cassano/cerci
Yet he has chosen untested 4231 for the vital moment

Passing accuracy:
Cassano - 58% 14/25
Pass combination:
To de Rossi - 5
To DARMIAN - 3
And Only 1 pass to each other player of the squad

What a joke

 

[Salvo]

Who will costa Rica face? Does second in this group get Columbia?

 

[Juventino[RUS]]

Who will costa Rica face? Does second in this group get Columbia?

Drogba and co I guess, japan and Greece are pathetic teams

 

[ZoSo]

What a fucking disgrace and Insigne was absolutely horrid. Balotelli really should have put that volley away and/or that lobbed chance he fucked up. I don't know how Chiellini got away without a penalty but I guess karma came back for him to fuck up on the goal.

Nice games from Darmian, Barzagli and Buffon and thought Cerci was decent too when he came on.

So going out in the group stage again, Suarez will rape....
