L'orgoglio Italiano è venuto fuori, le qualità di una popolazione che, nei momenti iu' difficili, riesce a dare il massimo. E il calcio non fa eccezione. GRAZIE RAGAZZI!
I have no words to describe the emotions, not to mention that I have no voice left -- I lost it during and after the game from the endless cheering and singing in celebration of our victory.
Italy is the champion. And sadly the World Cup is over after a glorious month-long party in Germany (and in all corners of the globe). It's an empty feeling knowing the tournament is over. I'm definitely going to have some serious post-World Cup withdrawal. I'm highly considering some stress-leave to regroup after all these emotions I've been going through. But it was a thrilling ride while it lasted and today I'm prouder than ever of where I come from.
Zidane's headbutt was un-necessary. It may have cost France the cup. The French lacked team spirit. There was never any excitement nor celebration when they scored in any of the match. David Trezguet was calm and did not show any emotion for missing the penalty. Whether Materazzi tickled his nipples or called him names, a legendary player like Zidane should have not lost his temper...A great player is one who lets his game do the talking and nothing else...speaking of Viera and Henry getting injured, well thats all a part of the game by which I mean a great soccer team is one in which the squad has enough good players who can replace the the ones who get injured. Italy didn't have the services of the great Nesta for the entire WC yet Materazzi did an excellent job in his place. So the bottomline is Italy won because they deserved to win and nothing else.
(if you'd like an instant replay of the headbutting click below and then put your mouse on Zidane).

The French newspaper this morning read: "L' ITALIE, FINALEMENT" as if they won ten cups over the years. I'm sure I speak for all the Italians when I say where the French should put their French baguettes right now....;)
And here are the last moments:

And please, don't forget to keep jumping up and down because: chi non salta un Francese e', e!
Grazie Ragazzi!
