Italia Yes! 3:0 with Ukraine

Muahahaha! I knew they are going to play very well at the very beginning of the match!

First it was Zambrotta (1 yellow card) scored the first goal at 6th mins.

Then we have Toni Luca scored another 2 goals continously at the second half match, 59′ and 69′.

I must say Italia is playing extremely well today but with the help of God as well! There were more than 3 shots from Ukraine, 2 saved by Buffon and a few others I supposed were saved by God (Sorry la I don’t believe in luck). Why? The ball hit the goal post for twice! Man….Ukraine could have goal! Nevermind, come back in 2010 and they might stand a chance to semi-final.

Howsoever, Gigi Buffon was unfortunate to hit his head to the goal post while attempting to save the corner kick. I know it must be hurtful, hope his is alright. An injury with bleeding is somehow better than none, hopefully there isn’t any blood clog. No No..it won’t happen to him. Buffon has been an excellent goalkeeper in Worldcup 2006, every goal has been brilliantly kept by him so far.

Gattuso, the hairy midfielder also had an injury when one of the blardy Ukraine fellas step on his hand.

Then on the other hand, our captain Cannavaro was lying on the field, crying for pain when the flying ball hit on his ‘bird bird’. Ouch! I am sorry, couldn’t find a pic of that.

So Germans, here the Azzurri comes!

By the way, do you think referee DE BLEECKERE Frank looks like Prince Charles? heh heh heh
Prince Charles Opps...Not!
