Even if England don't qualify he'll be there for that moment.

He kicked England's MotM
the post
Well he did try the overhead kick.
Thought the same thing. I want to think it had something to do with a good amount of his teammates on the other squad/players he's seen/played against a lot recently.

Italy are a fantastic side, with some fantastic players, and we matched them well today - Glenn Johnson
We're gutted about it, people weren't expecting much this tournament but we've shown we are a good team. There weren't that many chances in the game, apart from Balotelli at the start maybe - Wayne Rooney

He was really quite good after HT. Calm, collected, played some great balls to his teammates. He's perfect at PKs so I knew once it had hit 65-70 minutes or so and he was still on the pitch that Prandelli couldn't afford to take him off.
He hugged Hart, Milner and Lescott during the pre-game handshake bit as well. Mario definitely has a very "sweet" side to him.

My brain just flashed back in time 15 years :O
I opened a blue packet of Walkers thinking it was salt and vinegar.

Wow dude, I did this a few weeks ago. Had to take a long hard look at both packets and scratch my head thinking "did they switch the colours??"
Green packets of Hula Hoops are cheese and onion. Scares me.

He was poor, and has been throughout the tournament (goal aside, though it was fairly redundant). He is slow in possession, wildly wasteful with his shooting, and doesn't press or track back even as well as Cassano (who has been better, though he was awful today and gave the ball away repeatedly). It says something about the usual Balotelli that not getting sent off or doing something else calamitous today marks him out for praise.
If Italy had dependable strikers (get well soon, Giuseppe), they would have won 3-0 in regulation time.
To be honest I don't eat much crisps anymore. I don't even drink anything fizzy! Though I had a Walker's Cheese and Onion + 7up today.
7up is still so good after years of not having any.

I like Cheese & Onion with my tuna sandwich
Oh wow. To taste your first kettle chip.... you my friend are in for a treat.

Now I'm hungry. Cheers guys.
Yeah, he can be stupid and reckless, but Mario has a pure side. I think of him as a little kid in a grown man's body.
I just ate some toast as comfort food. There goes my diet.

I wonder if Balotelli has a similar arc to Theon.
No idea but don't start posting unmarked fucking spoilers in here again
I've just reached the epilogue of A Dance with Dragons and I'm so emotionally drained from the jizzbomb ending that I've come on here for a little break before digesting it. George RR Martin's a genius and a cunt, all in one.
Still need FIFA to use it. EURO is just an add on, updated kits and rosters etc.
Also I heard its a god-awful expansion.
By the time the next book rolls around I'd have completely forgotten what went on in ADWD. Only read it a couple of months ago but my memories already a little fuzzy. Hope those wiki entries are good.
Ugh... fuck EA.

Think it launches from the 12 menu.
It sucks anyway. You played the Monkey Island games already (XBLA)? Never tried them before, those are by far my favorite games for Xbox 360.
wait for pes 2013 demo, it should be out soon

I can't wait for the new Fifa for launch night alone. Pop to a shop to pick it up then just stay up all night playing games and getting pissed.
Not really, I believe I've played it before though. I've never really paid much attention to XBLA games, even though I love them. But I have a friend whose Xbox is broken, so he gave me his e-mail and password so I could use his gamertag. He has tons of these games (Limbo, Braid, etc). I'm waiting for my exams to end (tomorrow) so I could play a bit.
Are you shitting me?
Yep. This whole gen has been about FIFA. No way I'd go back to PES, they won't improve their franchise considerably anymore.
They will, for next-gen. But they're done for this gen.
Yep, that's what I meant. Next gen could go either way (Fifa continuing to impress, PES still being shit), or vice-versa. I'm scared for Fifa actually, who knows they won't suffer from the same issues PES has had this gen.
