“unfortunately, i fail to grasp 1 thing: why do all of you hate my country, Italy?”
Because everyone hates everyone here, still didn’t get it?
Sports actually should have positive effect for international understanding, but it doesn’t.

Lamagiaca,

peased to see you s u f f e r so much that you feel compelled to take refuge in the PAST… because the PRESENT is too gloomy for you.

We folks here in Germany are happy about our team’s standing (PRESENT)
and are looking forward to the match against Turkey (FUTURE),
after which we will either take on Spain or Russia (FUTURE)
and maybe even win the CUP (possible FUTURE)…

So it’s 1 x PRESENT plus 3 x FUTURE for GERMANY …
and 1 x PAST for italy …

ITALY gone poooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooofffffffffffffff !
Ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffftt !

Hehe.

Yummieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Aragones won’t change his mind
Luis Aragones insists he will not remain Spain coach, even if the national team win Euro 2008.

The veteran boss has led Spain to the semi-finals of the European Championship for the first time in 24 years.

Sunday’s penalty shoot-out win over world champions Italy has set up a last-four showdown with Group D rivals Russia in Vienna on Thursday evening.

I agree with Karri.
Amazingly put, Cesc is an over-the-top player and gives it his all whenever he is on the field. He should definitely start.

DVLDAWG, I also agree.
For those who are still complaining about Italy losing, insisting that it wasn’t a fair game, shut your mouths. Italy’s out, not coming back for Euro 2008. Get outta here and stop bagging on teams who are still in the game, especially Spain for dominating your team in penalty shoot-outs.

Wow… Why the effing hell u getting so pissy? I mean i just told you my opinion and get all pissy. And thats all true but im from Finland. And i believe that what i wrote is true and believe that Cesc had a bigger impact on the game, excluding the penalty, than either Xavi or Iniesta had.

Allright, congrats. I\ve been noticing that most have been saying that Xavi and Iniesta played amazing attacking football. I have to ask, did you even watch the match?? I mean in the first half and beginning of 2nd spain kept the ball and passed it around with no goal of going towards goal and getting one. However this changed when Aragones took off both Iniesta and Xavi who i think played a poor match. And were replaced by Cesc and Cazorla had a VERY good effect on Spain as Cesc immediately took over and controlled the midfield and most of Spains forward play. I cant imagine why Cesc would not start agaisnt Russia as Obviously Xavi and Iniesta were inefective and have been below par for most of the tournament and every time Cesc has come off the bench has made a positive effect on Spain. Get over Xavi and Iniesta and bow down to the new generation! All hail CESC!
