World Cup Game #28

[catalyst2]

Holy crap is all I can say - for NZ to draw 1-1 with Italy has to be the surprise result of the tournament so far! Holy crap!

For the Kiwis to score so early and then resist Italy for the remaining 83 minutes has to be the gutsiest performance so far. The Italians did pull back a single goal for their equalizer but apart from that, they looked ordinary and lacking in direction. No Italian player really stepped up to take control or inspire the team so, whilst there were some good individual attempts, Italy's performance was never coordinated enough to really look like they would win.

Holy crap!

Now if I was a better being I wouldn't say this, but being me....

"Didn't I told you all this?"
I told you we haven't a leader, I told you we hadn't someone who can score. GRIN

I still think we won't go past this turnment.

I'd like to disagree here - but I really can't because you are right! I just can't quite think of the World Cup without Italy getting to at least the quarter finals but, unless they wake up and soon, they may not even make it out of their qualifying group.
