Drama drama

To be honest, the Italy-USA match was one of the more dramatic matches I have caught so far..........imagine this scenario......3 red cards, 3 yellow cards, one own goal, blood after an elbow, USA almost up 2-1 due to an offside goal which almost left me with angina pectoris, players getting stretchered off(Cannavaro and Perotta got kicked in the arse - looked really painful), last ten minutes of offence by Italy and defence by the USA......man....it was awesome.....hehe....would only be better if Italy could scrape a win.....darn..........

It thus leaves every team in the group in limbo really..........I don't know why but I am just damn passionate about Italy advancing......maybe because I am half Italian.....



the referee was a maniac...he started brandishing cards like within minutes into the game.......and it was really funny when the players started off being aggressive and then after all the cards they turned into a meek bunch, hesitant on even touching their opponents.....hehe....no wonder there are always death threats for referees
