I still think they'll get through though

as long as they beat Romania they'll probably only need to draw with France (unless France beat the Dutch). And since France didn't seem to have any attacking punch whatsoever they ought to be able to manage that.

        I hope Romania don't go through...I really don't like that style of football (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 10, 09:39:49
        
        they are looking for a pen or freekick to sneak games one nill (n/m) (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Jun 10, 09:43:28
        
        yeh - that goes against the spirit of the game though (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 10, 09:46:59
        
        not that likely to get that heading for the corners though, surely? (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 10, 09:45:35
        
        oh dear - really? (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 10, 09:43:15
- isn't it better to have experience in the team plus Donadoni (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Jun 10, 09:25:05
  - you need experience (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Jun 10, 09:26:58
  - Dutch were all over them in the first half though (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 10, 09:26:49
    - Italians missed Cannavaro and should have started with 1 more attacking (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 10, 09:36:14
    - true but I thought it was more to do with the Italians over palying (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Jun 10, 09:30:56
- Donadoni had far too many of his mates in the team... (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 10, 09:18:22
  - still certain that Holland don't have enough in defence, Brandy? ;o) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Jun 10, 09:20:11
    - I don't think the defence was really tested last night...ha :>) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 10, 09:22:51
      - I thought it looked shakey when the Italians built up a bit of pressure and if Toni didn't (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Jun 10, 09:26:52
        
        Quite possible but the Italians looked shattered at the end (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Jun 10, 09:28:27
      - They did play Ambrosini though which is not unlucky just stupid (n/m) (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Jun 10, 09:23:39
        
        he is mates with Donadoni though - truly shocking management (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Jun 10, 09:34:56
  - Toni looked a complete carthorse (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Jun 10, 09:20:05
    - I thought he looked ok for a big man...just left his shooting boots in Germany (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Jun 10, 09:33:11
      - I know very little about the German league to be honest (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Jun 10, 09:35:11
- surely they should be more motivated? (NCFC) - mr carra, Jun 10, 09:11:20
  - I suppose it depends on each players character (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Jun 10, 09:19:28
