quoting for new page. I'd love to get one of these titles. My first entry, I think.
Feels good to have your title get chosen.

What a half. Missed chances galore but you just knew italy get one eventually. Is Italy going to get defensive now or keep the pressure on? Croatia really haven't done much.

Any Italians surprised with how well we've been doing so far? Considering our history with bad starts? I've been generally really impressed with this team the 3 halfs we've seen so far.

Italy should look to replace Mario up front. He hasn't looked sharp lately and Italy can't rely on getting a penalty. There has got be a better alternative to the bench.

This is the problem with Italy... score one and defend the rest of the match. I can just see the coach subbing a forward for a center back any time now :p

A good first half, that was a damn fine goal by Pirlo. Croatia definitely need to work on their possession a bit, there's been a few streaks where they've been in good form, but not enough. Still, there's a whole second half to played, Croatia can pull this off. :)

Juve won the league, so... no ;)

Balotelli's been alright. His runs have been great, he just needs to keep his faith that Cassano dropping deep and providing him will pay off rather than getting frustrated.
