Italy v New Zealand

[LDR]

What could possibly go wrong?

 

[Maltin]

Italy have only played New Zealand once, in a friendly last year, and the score was 4-3 with New Zealand leading 3 times during the match. If it's anything like that, it should be a good afternoon.

The Italian's have a proper national anthem, one you want to sing a long to. Not like ours!

 

[nicksonic]

right, after missing the last two games mad i'm back on it.

2-0.

 

[flutterbye]

New Zealands anthem is a bit moody.

Again, exactly what I thought

I would love it if New Zealand beat them, love it.

Just switched it on.. Can never be arsed to listen to the pre-match pundits
Why are the Italians wearing black arm-bands.. I presume someone of note has passed away?

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Is it shallow of me to like the font the Italians have chosen for the names on the shirts?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Smeltz scored the first goal in that game too.

correct decision

 

[Fedayn]

correct decision

Unlike allowing that goal.

 

[Lord Camomile]

Fuck me, it does rather look like Italy are rather pissed off now

I wonder, do you think the 'smaller' teams practice getting the ball hit at them? So many of just leap in front of the ball with complete disregard for personal safety, and you gotta think they'll be expecting to do it...

Just joined this game late.... 1 -0 to the Kiwis get in.

 

[Lord Camomile]

The Kiwis are passing it better than England

 

[Fedayn]

The Kiwis are passing it better than England

Sunday pub teams on Hackney Downs pass it better than England at present.

Everyone is passing it better than England

Touché.

Commentating on Radio 5Live, Robbie Savage goes 'I know you've got to be impartial on 5Live... but GO ON NEW ZEALAND!'

Switch your tv commentary off and listen 5Live - Savage is about the most entertaining thing about the World Cup so far. And more perceptive than a lot of the others too.
