Italy PK takers

[chuck bass]

italy slowed down the game, every ****ing time spain was on the counter attack, some meatball (most of the time toni) would pull a hubail a flop of the ground and grassroll and that piece of shit that they call a ref. would just tell spain to kick the ball out . thats slowing down the game, italy is a disgrace

agreed

No Ekbatan, that really was the case. Toni was always the antagonist in breaking down Spain's build-up and then either forcing the defenders to commit a foul - which they did - or dive with even the slightest of contact - which he did - and for a man who is 6ft 4in and weighs a lot, you would probably imagine having enough to stand his ground easily....but he didnt.
Admit it, Italy were not good enough and they paid the price for their tactics. End of story.

well said.

ok well dont say they're not good enough


I just hate how biased people (not you) come and try to justify that italy sucks, or they're not good enough as if they're asian or african team

It's like...they're f-ckin GIANTS of football with all kinds of achievements and these punk ass people come and try to find excuses and say they're not. It's not like they're a team like Greece who won 1 cup and thats it...they've been doing it for decades!

Just accept the facts and be logical...thats what I ask but some people can't understand that. I dont care if you dont like the team for whatever reason but dont have double standards when you judge their game. Judge everyone the same!
