hmmmm where are the conspiracy theorists wearing blue jerseys rushing to their computers to launch a tirade that the fix was in for the Denmark-Sweden match, in the words of the immortal Nelson Muntz, to all you Azzuri fans "HA HA"
I think Italy looked better in this competition than what we have seen in the past. They have the defence and can control the midfield now if they could only score.
Time to bring in a coach from one of the African nations. --- Kev
Italy have themselves to blame for what happened. The game against Denmark was a good result for them because the Danish were all over them. Italy should have wrapped up the game with Sweden with a victory but Trap's decides to go on the defensive and it cost them dearly. You can't do that when the opposition have players like Larson and when you are only one goal up. When will they learn. Trap's is too old .... get a younger coach and change the lineup and stop going for high profile players when there is much better talent in Serie A. Cassano and Buffon were Italy's MVP's and the Italians need more passionate player's like them if they wanna be successful. This seems to be the year of the under-dogs.
