Will be hosted by Poland and the Ukraine. So glad Italy didn't get it, and it's nice to see Eastern Europe host the Euros.
Euro 2012
- Thread starter Illuminattile
- Start date
LMFAO @Italy. Did they really think they deserve to host a Euro? Haha.
Everytime i see a relative "poor" country getting a huge event like this (like S.Africa 2010) i think: "Is there no other more useful way of spending billions of dollars than putting it into the the building of football stadiums?

Croatia/Hungary didn't even get 1 vote.....
At one point we we're favored, now not even 1 vote. I blame the Hungarians. When the UEFA officials went to visit, there were protests by the Hungarian people saying that they didn't support it.
Well Hungary, I hope you're happy.. Now you can go back to your economy of pornstars.

Ok, with a little bit more seriousness:
Of course do i respect most players of the team. How could i not? People like Cannavaro, Nesta and Co. They have great qualities plus they are fair players.
On the other hand, there are many things which clearly make italy dislikable! - Who cheated a penalty against Australia? Who said stupid things about Zidanes sister or mother (cant remember)? Who is/was known for acting on the pitch like only the best hollywood acters could do it? Who has not a spark of decency after losing the voting for the Euro 2012? Who has a president like Berlusconi? Who has the most fucked up league in Europe? Whos country is riddled with corruption? And so on....

how aren't they boring to watch!
They pass the ball around the center and their part of midfield until they see some opening. They pass the ball to their striker who walks around the offside line. Then if he doesn't score, he dives for a penality.
Moreover, they dive a lot which is the gayest part of soccer.
My question is this. When refs are in a game with an Italian team or even the Italian NT... why they still give free kicks? I mean the dives are so obvious that Ray Charles could see them from a plane!
I found the right word for Italian soccer... "Frustrating"

Not necessarily mean to offend you, although...but um..you sound like a little kid.They do this to me,they did that,they act like this,they act like that.I think you should stop and think about the reasons why you dislike them so much and see if its really fare.
Players always cheat for penalty.Why does that one have to stand out the most.I know,because its coming from Italian player which is what you want.Besides,its quarterfinals, theres no time for pity at that time.I'm sure many players would've done the same.
Who said stupid things about Zidanes sister?lol you sound offended too.Players curse and talk shit all the time on the field.That wasn't something new we heard.But what made it stand out and people are remembering it was the situation,being semifinals and last game of Zidane career and he had the balls to say something.Thats it.You can't actually tell me only Italian players curse opponent players.Everybody says some shit but usually people keep their kool or just talk back.
Their style of play is and always has been defense defense.Boring?Maybe to you but it works.Defensively teams are usually boring to watch yea.Even in basketball,Spurs..they are boring.But it all works for them.Can you blame them?No.
Don't like it, don't bother watching it.It works so what do you want.

Um how is it sounding like a child? If a team cannot proceed through to the final on fair merits then they shouldn't be there at all. To steal a penalty like that in the quarter finals of the world cup, and at the very last moments of the game was just complete bullshit. It was completely disgusting to watch that, seeing as Australia outplayed you Italians, and that was the only way you would have won.
The fact is, the Italians are the perpetrators of so much bullshit, and that's why people dont like them. People dont like them because "they win" or whatever, people dont like them for the simple fact that they play dirty, they cheat, they act. How about opening your eyes to that simple fact and you won't be so defensive about any criticisms of Italian football.
