Five world cups? Interesting. I know that dumb Italians is only our stereotype, but they should really learn to count. They won it four times. Only Brazil did it five times. The only thing that the Italian national team won five times is the Blue Oyster bar beauty contest.
Lol... I have to work on that... Im really too biased against Italians...
But yeah, if you want stupid, Facebook, Youtube and comments on news pages are really the ultimate. If Im not much mistaken, a few Americans already want to bomb us.

Ricki Herbert had to pull Fallon off today, he uses his elbows to when he jumps (as a lot of people do) but the Italians were taking full advantage of it.

Yeah, they had a whole analysis of that in the studio after the game. Looks like the Ivory Coast player simply saw a good opportunity to screw Brazil, and went for it. Unfortunately, he succeded. Then it was all that business with the rest of them. If Kakas temamates wouldnt surround him, there probably would have been his blood on the field. Nope, Ivory Coast didnt turn me on with that. Theyre playing with North Korea next, which is just as well. I wouldnt have rooted for them in any case, not after this.

I'm not a Paston fan but I will admit he played well today, two good saves. He's still a bit shaky around the six yard box and punches to much but a great performance from him. Well done Paston. Thought Woods played well when he came on. I'd be playing him ahead of Fallon any day.

Im still rooting for Ivory Coast, but Brazil has really made a comeback from their last game, where they really werent themselves. Really nice playing today.
As I write, the ref has overruled a goal for Ivory Coast. Not fairly either - there was never an offside. Still, it wont change much.

Maybe I'm just a bit bitter, but it seems our guys can get knocked over and it's ok, but the Italians will go down with even the hairs breadth of a touch of nothing, and get a free kick.
