Italy 1 Vs New Zealand 1: 20th June, 2010 @ World Cup by medjai(m): 6:10pm On Jun 19, 2010 |
MATCH: Italy Vs New Zealand TIME :3 PM DATE: 20th June VENUE: Mbombela Stadium, Nelspruit HISTORY: Italy and New Zealand have met just once in the past. This meeting was a prelude to the 2009 Confederations Cup in South Africa, when Italy narrowly avoided a defeat to New Zealand in a high-scoring 4-3 win. The Kiwis produced one of the moments of the 2010 World Cup on Tuesday when they pulled back a 90th minute goal to draw with Slovakia. However, they'll be up against a different beast altogether when they take on the World Champions on Saturday. Italy's form ahead of its clash with New Zealand has been poor. The Azzuri have scored three draws, a win and a loss from their last five matches, and didn't look particularly impressive in their draw against Paraguay in their opening World Cup fixture. Italy is sorely missing a quality striker, and four goals from five matches just isn't good enough for this team. The defence remains solid enough, conceding four goals during the same period. New Zealand have three losses, a win and a draw from its last five matches. Not much was expected of this team at the World Cup, and they made more than a few people sit up and take notice when they drew with Slovakia in the first round of group stage matches. New Zealand's strikers have put away four goals in the last five matches, while defence has let in eight goals during the same period. |

New Zealand just came to fly their country's flag on this W.C and not to perform. well i'll say this is their best ever W.C appearance after getting their 1st point in W.C history. they should just be proud to parade thier flag and jersey colours b'cos even if their coaching crew and other football officials are allowed to play for them along with the 11players on parade, they'll still loose so they should just forget about anything victory when they play italy toady! |

But they met last year and Italy came back from behind thrice before they could seal a 4-3 victory. Anyways, i doubt NZ will get anything out of this match |

Italy are showing the character of a defending Champion and it is a matter of time before they equalise |

Re: Italy 1 Vs New Zealand 1: 20th June, 2010 @ World Cup by medjai(m): 4:10pm On Jun 20, 2010 |
@ valacious i thought so to about the penalty until i saw the replay. The NZ defender pulled an Italian players shirt in the box |

Re: Italy 1 Vs New Zealand 1: 20th June, 2010 @ World Cup by otokx(m): 4:40pm On Jun 20, 2010 |
What is the average age of the Italian team? This is a team that like Nigeria do not have strikers that can score. |
Re: Italy 1 Vs New Zealand 1: 20th June, 2010 @ World Cup by medjai(m): 4:40pm On Jun 20, 2010 |
NZ so close to getting a second goal |
Re: Italy 1 Vs New Zealand 1: 20th June, 2010 @ World Cup by Nobody: 4:42pm On Jun 20, 2010 |
@medjai, yes i saw the pull, but its one of those normal hangling that players do within the '18' box. and the guy just added some drama to it, fell way too easily, all good, at least the game ended in a draw. |
Re: Italy 1 Vs New Zealand 1: 20th June, 2010 @ World Cup by buzugee(m): 4:43pm On Jun 20, 2010 |

buzugee: it insanity to claim germany sucks considering how good they were with 10 men. spain was just unlucky to find the net. those two would be fine. stop with the hyperbole. go oceania |
