What the hell is wrong with Italy? They should be walking away with these games because they certainly have the talent to do so? Are they suffering from "Laker Syndrome?" Too much individual talent and not enough team play? They played an excellent game today against Sweden. They controled the pitch for most of the game. Really it should have been 3 or 4 to 1 rather than 1 to 1. When will teams learn that you can't bunker if you are only up by 1? Personally, I think Italy will be much better off without Totti. I can't stand that guy so I don't think Italy will miss him much. What's wrong with Italy? Can they even advance now? Thanks
P.S. Bruce Arena please take note on the comment made above on the fact that you cannot bunker with a single goal lead. I realize that is your only tactic so it might time for something else.
