Italian Bullshit

Italy played like a bunch of drunks, staggering into wall after wall and pissing on themselves and all their fans in the process. On the rare occasion that they did manage to get the ball into the Danish box, what they found was merely another barrier in the form of Thomas Sorensen who made a couple of fine saves. To be fair though, the Italians defended stoutly as well. I have nothing but respect and admiration for the back five of Buffon, Panucci, Zambrotta, Nesta and Cannavaro who, thanks to the spineless midfield, were under pressure for most of the game. Without them, who knows what would have happened. But now, Sweden awaits and already my knees are starting to go weak.
