Italy - Paraguay

[Drew]

For those of you who had under 36 seconds for "how long before an Italian is writhing on the ground in pain" you win.

[Back]

Paraguay is definitely playing strong so far.

Paraguay goal on a really nice header!!!!! Italy 0 - Paraguay 1

[Back]

The goalie was nowhere near it. Right in the corner.

[Ryvicke]

Oh the fucking Italians.

I remember the 2006 US-Italy game when there was an army of hidden snipers apparently taking down the entire Italy team and then I think Brian McBride got cheapshotted and his face blood was BLEEDING DOWN HIS FACE and didn't make a big deal out of it. Super badass.

EDIT: Had to add this for when you're at work but really need some vuvuzela: http://www.vuvuzela.fm/

Eh. They don't dive any more than Spain/Portugal/France. They were very lucky to get out of that game with a tie.

[Endlin]

Yeah I thought the diving was pretty minimal. Especially for the I-talians.

Japan however....
