Oh damn...on second thought some of us are! ;-) I would like to think that I am not one of them...when Italy won the World Cup I actually wanted to get as far away from my Woodbridge home as possible just to get away from all of the idiots!

Also, seeing as how Italy has already lost Fabio Cannavaro to injury during the very first training session I don't see them getting out of Group C...that is the probably the toughest group i've ever seen drawn for this tournament.

I remember at the last world cup, I was sitting in a bar in Paris at the back of the crowd cheering on Italy, Paris rioted after the loss but couldn't help laughing to myself (I'm not stupid, I know how serious football fans get, didn't want to get jumped, lol). Honestly though, if Zidane didn't pull out that headbut, the outcome could have been totally different. Group C definitely is the hardest group of them all and despite not having Carnavaro, I still believe Forza Azzurri will come out of it!

PaulM
06-09-2008, 10:21 PM
Hi,

I just wanted to add something about the first goal against Italy.

The way I see it, theoretically, he wasn't offside, because the last Italian player was on the ground next to the goal net, and since the game wasn't officially stopped for his injury, so he can be taken off the field, one could say that he was still "in", and therefore the "last defendant". It would really clear it up if we could see where exactly the linesman is standing (whether on the goal line or not).
I would imagine this is not a very easy call in the midst of things, since I don't think anything in the Fifa rule book mentions anything about this sort of thing. But then again, I could be wrong.

Just my 2 cents.

Today, the Dutch deserved to win, But I honestly do believe that the first goal was offside, I don't care what anyone has to say to that, if you look on the high lights you could clearly tell he was offside. Aside from that, the 2nd goal was amazing.

With a new Coach leading Azzurrrriiiii, I guess today's game was more of an experiencing factor,

I didn't like the fact that they put in Del Piero, Cassano, and Grosso in, they should of made them on the starting line up, instead of substituting them in.


Today they played sloppy, but I'm not worried.


I'm almost certain that, it will come down to facing France, and it will determine, which team will get in.



The France game will be one hell of a game.

That's what I thought too when I saw the replays although I didn't think the goalie counted as one of the last defenders. After looking more into the offside rule, the goalie counts as a defender so the Dutch striker wasn''t offside. The downed Italian defender (who was still in play even though he was out of bounds to the side of the net) in addition to the goalie ensured that the Dutch striker was onside at the time he kicked it in.

http://www.offside-ref.co.uk/laws/11-offside-rule/detailed/ (second illustration explains why he was onside).

You have it almost right! But the goalie did not weight into the equation, if the goalie was the 'only' player left behind the opponent, it would have been offside.But the player that was on the ground and out of bounds or "off the pitch" was still classified as "in play", so for that reason the opponent was not offside.They made this rule so as players could not make opponent players offside by just simply stepping out of bounds.

Group C on Friday - It'll be interesting to see how Italy responds to that embarassing loss. The French/Dutch game will get a lot of attention, especially if there's a tie in the first game. Such a great time for watching sports - Euro, NBA Finals, U.S. Open golf (or wasting time depending on your POV).

I wouldn't call Germany an underdog against Portugal though. That game was gonna go either way, especially considering that Germany was the favourite coming into the tourney. I think at game time they were still the odds on fave over Portugal to win it all. Second to only the Netherlands at the time.

Today's game should be very interesting. I'm hoping Spain doesn't choke for once but Italy is gaining momentum just like they did in the World Cup. Slow start but strong finish. Should be fun!

They should've skipped the game and went directly to penalty shots because it sure looked like that was the plan for most of the game. Not the most exciting match - very defensive. Hopefully the next round will be more dynamic. Arrivederci l'Italia...

But Turkey is gonna have a hard time, I am not sure if they even have enough guys for subs. Their injury list and suspension list is a little large for tournament play.

It seems to be quite an even game, although Spain has had a few more chances on goal.

This stream is working well for me...

Great game, Germany just didn't show up to win. You could see their frustrations show through getting close to the end of the game.
