That France-Italy crunch match

[Sweaty Betty]

I love the Italian anthem

 

[liampreston]

France are getting into it at last (well Henry is) but this is Italy's game to lose.

 

[lenny101]

My only hope now is for romania to win, they're doing well atm.

Can't see the Dutch losing it. They will want to carry the momentum into the final stages.

ETA: FORZA ITALIA

 

[lenny101]

Brilliant free kick off the post.

 

[DexterTCN]

Italy will score more as France tire now, surely?

 

[magneze]

I reckon we'll see more red cards. Tackles flying in. Inconsistent Ref. The ingredients are there ...

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Enjoyable stuff.

Domenech's probably giving his last team talk as the French manager now.

 

[lenny101]

Holland 1 up.

[Phenotypic Dai]

So the Dutch go one up.

Hmm...

 

[pastieburt]

Italy in the quarters at the moment.

 

[editor]

After watching the way France are playing and seeing Italy playing ever deeper, I want France to win.

Well for now, at least.

They only need a draw as long as Holland win. There is hope for my sweepstake yet.

 

[pastieburt]

Why are the Italians so deep? It's France with the 10 men.

In the first half Italy were like a big fuck off rotweiler doing a cute little chiwawa.

 

[pastieburt]

2-0.

Forza Azzuri!

Facci sognare...

exactly, Italy were all over them first half, should have been three up

still, the forces of light are triumphing anyway it would seem

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Heh-he.

2-0 against 10 men.

Seemingly in the bag.

*Tempts Fate*

 

[pastieburt]

Cracking save from Buffon.

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

Cracking save from Buffon.

Aye, class act.

 

[lenny101]

Holland 2 up.

 

[The Boy]

Well, at least we've got rid of Domenech. Having said that, Motson mentioned that Deschamps is like ly to be the next manager

 

[Concrete Meadow]

uh-oh. Looks like Spain will meet Italy in the Quarter Finals.

 

[JTG]

wahey, get in there
