Italy will win the San Siro...no worries, it was just to not humiliate the Sweeds

I think Italy go out with a score draw, no Verratti for the next leg.

Decent result away.
Hopefully we can get a 1-0 win back in Dublin on Tuesday.

Ventura needs to stop with 3-5-2 and 4-2-4

Play a 4-3-3 and start insigne

Buffon

Florenzi—-Bonucci—-Chiellini—-Darmian

Parolo—-De Rossi—-Jorginho

Candreva—Immobile—-Insigne

I applied for tickets for the final of WC 2018. Until yesterday, the "My Requests" page on my account said "Pending results of random allotment draw". I have received no communication from Fifa after that, and now the page says that it will be closed until the FCFS ticket sales. So far, I have not been billed for the tickets. Can someone who has got tickets already tell me what I could look for to know if I have received the tickets or not or if the results are still pending?

I'm not very hopeful anymore. :(

Verratti was atrocious in the first leg.

I think Italy will win 2-1 today, and go out.

I can't see this Italian side under Ventura win by two clear goals against Sweden.

Comunque, Forza Azzurri!

sweden were at their worst when they had to defend deep and rely on the counter, they have no options apart from forsberg

not optimistic about their chances

2-0 italy

Ventura you conservative stubborn man :lol::fp:

Holding on to your system is a mistake. Going through the center was a failure in sweden. No wing support from Candreva and damian.

Insigne needs to be on for italy.

Very fitting that the funeral of La Nazionale is held in the San Siro. This is divine punishment from the Calcio gods for the Milan clubs selling their souls to the Chinese.

Soon club football will match international football and Italy will fall out of elite footballing relevance, just like the Dutch.

Meanwhile, French football is primed and ready to take over. :cool:
