Italy beats Australia. - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

ITALIA · 06-26-2006, 02:03 PM

Italy won. Yay.

Thoughts on the game? It's a huge dichotomy as to the penalty given. I'd give Italy the benefit of the doubt in the game since they had better statistics overall (bar possession, but is understandable due to Italy being a man down), the red card on Materazzi was too harsh though.

10. TOTTI Francesco (95+' PEN)

- That's all that counts.

I didn't wake in time for it. Thats another game I picked right though... I should of bet on all of these games!

Hylo · 06-26-2006, 02:33 PM

Very harsh on Australia to go out to a last minute penalty but Italy's class and experience showed through overall.

peach · 06-26-2006, 02:39 PM

I think the Austrialians gave italy a good game. They were up against a really good team.

Payton · 06-26-2006, 02:42 PM

Tough call but hard to argue with... wasn't all that controversial I think

hard for it to be a no-call that isolated in the penalty area

nilpashah · 06-26-2006, 03:04 PM

very good match though

Mark · 06-26-2006, 03:08 PM

Noooooooooooooooooooooooo. What was the final score?

socrates · 06-26-2006, 03:09 PM

Last seconds of added-on time...thats f***ing harsh.

1 : 0. Italy scored in the last minute of the match

theNOTO · 06-26-2006, 03:54 PM

Quite an ending and quite a game.

kyleirwin · 06-26-2006, 03:57 PM

I usally never watch soccer, but I caught a clip of the game winning "GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL"... that was crazy... that guy sure did have some expirence with those balls.

activeweb · 06-26-2006, 09:07 PM

Forza Azzurri!!!

Peter · 06-26-2006, 09:13 PM

I couldn't believe it when I was watching it.

Nathan · 06-26-2006, 10:40 PM

The italian soccer team should seriously consider acting when they finish their soccer careers.....

Payton · 06-26-2006, 11:06 PM

Didn't you guys see the adidas commercial where the whole team practices diving? hehe

Payton · 06-26-2006, 11:11 PM

Heh, found it, not an adidas ad tho

Nathan · 06-26-2006, 11:15 PM

Yeah well all that training paid off. There was plenty of that in the match

donn · 06-26-2006, 11:17 PM

One of the best endings I've seen.

a.titus1 · 06-26-2006, 11:31 PM

Inexperienced Australian defender + experience Italian = pk.

That was a helluva dive, but the defender put himself in that position. Idiotic to go to the ground in that instance. Socceroos (best name ever) should have buried italy much early. They waited until the last 10 minutes to go to 2 strikers and push the match.

Dave · 06-27-2006, 12:35 AM

The game was a load of crap, Australia should won, we played better the whole way through, and then they got that shoddy penalty kick.

No kidding. I've never seen so much flopping in my life, it's pathetic. I seriously hope Italy gets their asses kicked next round.

reteep · 06-27-2006, 03:21 AM

Would be fun if Germany faces Italy again like back in 1970.

That'd shut all the italians at my school up - especially ITALIA.....yes, he goes to my school.

ITALIA · 06-27-2006, 03:33 AM

Italy owns, it's a scientific fact. We've won equally the 2nd most amount of world cups. We own.

What you going to do when the Italian Stallions run wild on j00?

Hey, I'm from the US, you guys only managed a tie against us (despite the US finishing with 9).

Unfortunately I think Italy has a pretty solid chance of making it to the semi-finals. I'm betting they'll lose there, against Germany or Argentina.

ITALIA · 06-27-2006, 03:44 AM

That was group stages though, Italy wins when they need to. I.e Czech Republic defeat to make Stage of 16

agua · 06-27-2006, 03:49 AM

I reckon that it wasn't a sending off, and it wasn't a penalty.

Unlucky Australia - but great defending Italy wth only 10 men.

As England & Italy are both playing like dog shite - it wouldn't surprize me if they meet in the final - is that possible?

Dave · 06-27-2006, 03:50 AM

If they do meet, I want England to win, they beat Italy last time.

MisterX · 06-27-2006, 03:54 AM

I think they'll beat Ukraine as well, but that's it for them.

rembrandt · 06-27-2006, 05:04 AM

I think Australia gave Italy a very good challenge considering Italy is rated 13th in the world and Australia I think about 43rd. The Aussies should be proud to get to the eliminations. I think Italy are a much stronger side in attacking but all in all I think the game could have gone either way. Just in case anyone things I'm bagging the Italians.. I'm not.. My parents are Italian but I was born he in Sydney so that makes me an Aussie. Now I'm going for Italy for the rest of the World Cup.

That's it mate! ITALIA!

Blood is thicker than water eh? I wouldn't take World Rankings into account at the moment though, they'll be changed after the World Cup accordingly to how teams have performed through out.
