I hope we can grab this win. We all know that Italy is a so-called tournament-team, which evolves and develops itself during the world cup. Those friendly games don't tell anything about the form of the team. They are there to try out attacking schemes, and new position plays. I really don't care too much for the Ukraine-game. What worries me the most is the injury-problem... (is it just me or is it true that really a lot of teams have to struggle with injury problems. In nearly every friendly game i watched on the television, there was at least one who had to get out injured? IN FRIENDLIES... Wtf!? Are the football players made out of glass or what ;) )

But stop underestimating african teams. We all know ghana are not on the same technical level as italy but they compensate a lot of their technical lacks with their motivation and their devotion. They really give everything and very often have fascinating strength and great running capabilities. And in these two attributes, italy has some very big problems in my opinion. I'd really say that from an athletic point of view, ghana is a lot better than us. But a win in this game is expected and necessary, considering the other teams in our group. A loss in this game could turn out unforgiveable

If we r gonna worry bout Ghana, what then Argentina, Brazil or England ? Winning this game is the best start we can get and will help ease the pressure in camp

Against Ghana italy should be very careful defensively, i hope they don't make any mistakes. I think if ghana scores first, it will be game over for us.

I hope that Camo has a good game as i see him as the only threat on the wing, and toni to be ready to finish them.
I have a feeling De Rossi will have a difficult job, but nevertheless i am confident that he will do a good.

I'm affarid that he might do something unusual!!!

But Lippi has faith in that guy!

i dont, matrix is a liability, and cant defend to save his life i dont quite see what lippi sees in him, i havemore faith in the current form of matteo ferrari than matrix.
