Ooh Chile made it into the final? I stopped watching the tournament a while back but good for making it that far --both teams.

Chile were really, really impressive! I can't wait to see them @ the Olympics -- they play very exciting, very skilled football, it's a pleasure to watch them. Plus, this team was very young, I think, a bit like the US they sent a lot of babies.

Was it most of Chile's Olympic players --U20-U23s? They sound exciting! I love when underdogs are doing so well.

I think most were actually U-21s, so one assumes they'll be even stronger when Beijing rolls around. (I'm the same way with the underdogs, it makes it all so much more interesting.)

OK. I hate my company right now for blocking photobucket Arghhhhhhhhhh *throws laptop out of the window*

The vid is already up. Low Quality again but I will go through all the capping pain to bring you the ~pretteh~ tonight

1.) I’m so proud of our boys! They played good. They fought hard. Totally wearing their hearts on their sleeves. And LDS didn’t even fake injury, oh my GOD! I love Azzurrini. Love love love.

2.) I’m a little disappointed that Motta didn’t set foot on the pitch last night. But he played in semi and probably Casiraghi figured all the Argies wanna tear those baby Chileans apart :P

3.) Osvaldo goal is ~CLASS~ omg what a finish! And what a pass from Dessena *feels like a proud mama now* (and geez Guarante near-goal is sick. SICK!)

4.) Ohhhh Osvaldo, you dirty bitch. What did you do to DD!! Turning him down and let him collapsing on the floor when he is about to adore you! but it’s so funny & hot *pets DD*5.) Our CBs weren’t bad. They get better and better. But Bassi won me over! I went to Juve webboard and fanboys ( ... )

I'm checking other torrent sites too but no avail T_T I'll keep looking!!

1. I wish Dona would show the senior yesterday game and demand nothing less than that T^T the swamp pitch made all the slides even look more awesome that usual too
2. I'm not so sure if Motta can play on the left. But LDS was decent on the right. DellaFiore seemed to be the weakest link last night and Chileans kept attacking on right side, that's why he switched LDS over..
3. Goal of the tournament, hands down! *pets Guarante*
4. It IS DD!! go check youtube (i'll post it tonight), you'll see #20 running towards Osvi before he made the turn XD
5. I thought the same too! He looks so stern and doesn't even blink when he made wonderful saves (like when he pushed FK off the bar) (the fact that he faintly remind me of doens't help either)
5.2 as for Bocchetti, i want him to stay in B or move to small team how about Parma? XD cuz he shows a very good potential and I don't want him to warm the bench :\
6. Happy birthday you little whiner *throws confetti* where's the ( ... )

LOLZ *clings back* (Wearing Osvi and Bocchetti would be pretty awesome, though.)

Nocerino was AWESOME. I didn't expect him to be The Good One, of all people, but he did it and did it well. I think he wanted to prove worthy of Casiraghi's trust. And dear, he left Juve. They set him up with the whole Amuari deal and he might have sounded sensible, but it seems like the poor thing didn't want to leave in the first place.

Osvi should have been sent off. Really, it seemed he either didn't want to be there or just wanted the ball for himself. It could have easily ended with a 3-0 for Italy, or Chile could have won with a killing 1-0. I was highly worried of the latter, but THANK GOD he managed to finish that one off. It was worth the wait.

Them conceding just one goal in five games and 450 minutes of football is quite impressive. I like how, almost most of them, play for normal Serie A teams and yet manage to look like thugs tough kids. You'd see the youngins in the EPL and La Liga already participating and well known at a very young age, just because they get the chance to shine in the CL and play for the Big Four. I ( ... )

I'm sorry, but the man hasn't even had his presentation yet -- he's at least going to be Juve in my head until then!

You're so funny with the way you see Osvi, you always think he's shit even when he's consensus MOTM. I thought he was fantastic yesterday, being allowed to drop in more made him much more engaged in the match, he was more active that he's been all week and was crucial to the win (apart from the goal). That kick was so Matrix I couldn't believe, it I had no idea anyone else was that dumb. I just pray he doesn't turn out to make a habit of it.

I thought the same thing about them looking all big and tough, Osvi looked HUGE, and skinny little Galloppa was pushing people around like he was 6'8", or something.

Bocchetti is MINE! When he gets to Serie A and turns into a stud, no one else is allowed to like him. *nods firmly* He and Osvi totally adore one another, he grinned @ Osvi after his PK. (God, there was koala-ing? I have to go watch the end again, then!)

Blame the commentator, not me. He had a thing against your Osvi and after 90 minutes, I'm due to catch some of it. I mean, he was rambling about France's "star players" during the bloody game!

Much Koala-ing and then Osvi having to drop said Koala to the ground to get rid of him. I seriously can't remember who, but it just might be Bocchetti.

Well, he did kick that guy, but still. (LOL The French? Really? I bet they didn't talk about the failure to get a point, though, right? Ours were bad, but way better than that -- how often does that happen?)

If it was Bocchetti I may try to climb into the TV (and even if it wasn't, it totally bears rewatching anyway).
