ITALIA 3 - 1 PORTOGALLO (CHE?!)
So the scorers were: Luca Toni, CANNAVARO, Quaresma and Quagliarella.
The following MASSIVE photos will tell the rest of the story.
[dial-up beware]
First of all, Amelia wants you all to know that forest green is the new "it" colour. And that it is very chic and eco-friendly.
Also, get over the fug-ness that is the font. It brought them luck.
Got some BIG giant shoes to fill covering for Gigi, this Amelia
But blocking two of Cristiano's FK's? Quite impressive.
If there's anything our boys are good at, it's hair. Long flowing locks of love
Well except that Roman baldie, who still refuses to grow his blond tresses >=0
Pirlo and his bountiful coiffure
He is not about to do a cartwheel there, no.
Surprisingly, the offense was all about Quaresma, as opposed to Cris [at least in the first half]
And Massi was phe-no-me-nal.
Well it wasn't easy marking Ricky, but someone's gotta do it.
Massi was stuck defending against Quaresma and this little firecracker
Cristiano's shorts are not for ogling, kthxbai
Yeah, Massi was doubly-dutying on Cris and Ricky. Tough luck.
Doing the dance with Quaresma
Daniele was like our fifth defender, helping out Massi here and there
^Not sleepwalking
Dani and Deco had a little run-in when the latter kicked Daniele's poor little innocent heels
Also, who knows of the band Hoobastank? The lead singer, right? Total Deco lookalike.
They were tough on the Roman, they were.
Karate kid!
Ambrosini with a steal
Ambro hustlin' on Deco
'Sup Massimo Ambrosini's bum.
Y'all are iconizing this now, don't even front. :P
Ambro is too cool for you.
Palla started [So I guess Diddy favoured him over Quags]
Those thighs, bless them.
Raffa wasn't bad; he actually almost scored off Canna's assist
He hit the crossbar and dragged his palms down his face in regret. :[
See, he helped with containing Cristiano, too.
'Sup Maniche of Inter fame
Interesting choice of limb entanglements there
When is the return leg of Inter-Juve? I'll keep an eye on these two.
Toto
Luca was in front of the attack, as expected
"What? Where's my foul?"
The defense were hard on him. In the first few minutes.
Before the Portugal backline took a holiday, that is.
One of Luca's close calls
Missing
LOL
Luca swimming
It must be those beanies. I told you, they looked like swimming caps!
Aaaaaand there's the ear rotation gesture
TONIGOL!
Italy 1!
God, we've missed that
And then Luca scored and it was all kinds of love
The sweetest moment of the night, I'm telling you.
Gimme five!
Actually, wait, that's ten.
Nobody was more overzealous about the opening goal than Raffa
... who shamelessly glomped Luca like he was a eucalyptus tree to Raffa's koala
Their hair. The sheer volume and abundance.
The glomp
Shall I alert Gila?
If you try reading the name, it does look like, "Gilardino" somewhat. It's the same "-dino" suffix.
Sandwiched between Milanisti
Luca inviting Fabi to come over
So he did [Aw, Daniele tiptoe ♥]
HOW ADORABLE ARE THOSE SOCKS!??!
OMG someone give Di Natale some love already!
Toto wants some love, too, Luca!
Speaking of Toto
He was sharp. I liked their chemistry upfront.
And then there was that Pirlo goal that everyone thought was Pirlo's [It was later credited to Canna as the ball took a deflection off Pirlo's volley]
That second goal made Daniele very happy. Yes, the boy does know how to smile. See?!
Italy up 2 - 0
Daniele wants a hug!
Canna seekritly knew the goal was his, hence that XD smile XD
And how hot is that thigh scar on Sleepy's knee?!
Quaresma was a threat. I really thought he was going to score on the counter
Do you see how everyone is chasing after him?
You just knew he was going to score.
Quagliarella scored just seconds after Quaresma to put Italy back up by 2 goals
Q-boy's strike was off Perrotta's header. It was a beauty, the goal.
I'm not even gonna front, the biceps are hot.
Also, bulging neck veins
Ladies, the new unloved OTP -- The Quaglia-rotta [silent "g"]
*shudders*
Check out Sleepy. He's totally awake now.
Ambro wanted in on the Quaglia-rotta
OK and then Gamberini came on for Dre B
"
Also, is it wrong to perv on Massi's thigh birthmark? I must name it.
Man, is Massi looking rough here or what?
Look, the photogs cut his face out of this pic to save us the pain
And there's Oddo's thigh birthmark again. I'm telling you, it needs a name!
Oh, God, I was a ball_of_LOL when Marco and Nani had a little bitch fit
Anyway, here's Marco taking over Oddo's role. I am a proud momma.
Another Romanista with Cris
Oh this was when time was running out on Portugal and Cris fell oh so easily
Canna was like, "get up, that was nothing, get up."
nnnngh Canna in the rain with his bitchface on
Captain to captain, bbz.
Canna be going, "I didn't do anything!"
And then... Canna, oh, Canna, clawing down Cristiano's chest.
Aw, Cris
It's OK, you're still pretty, right?
In case you wanted a smaller version. You know, for your wallet?
bb, don't cry
This gives a whole new meaning to the term "kicking your ass."
Time for the boss
This is for Jina
Who's a stud?
Celebrate!
Aww :)
Hugsfest
So, 3-1. Not bad.
Luca: "What, like it's hard?"
And the debutantes [of sorts]
Mmm Gambit and Marky B
Capitano solo
I'll end with bitch!Canna because y'all love the OOC-ness of it all
