Italy v USA Confederations Cup Liveblog

Sure, you don’t need youth. Sure.

Italy’s the oldest team in this competition. Average age 28. USA’s average age 25.

At 36, that ref was the youngest in the tournament.

Man 36 is the youngest? Although I don’t blame them, who would want to be a referee?

Dustin and so what?the oldest team in competition?i think that if U.S.A has only one player with technical quality of any Italian player ,he would play in U.S.A once 50years…we have a lot of young player…Ps if you don’t know anithing about football…please don’t talk…what about Rossi?De Rossi?Chiellini?Montolivo?Pazzini?Pepe?Quagliarella?Dossena?Danton?Palombo…whatever…its normal to mantein player like Gattuso or Pirlo or Buffon or Zambrotta or Cannavaro( bt its hurt)or Camoranesi etc etc because they are one of the National best player of the world…you know Cristiano Ronaldo,Ronaldigno they are the Best when they play with club because they can use the “Aliens” tactical quality that they have…but when you play against a National team you cannot use those quality like in a club…because in National team if you do an error you will recive one goal…and the tipe of Ronaldigno or Cristiano Ronaldo game cause a lot of problem to the midfield of Brazil or Portugal because they don’t mark anibody etc etc etc…
so if you saw the match Italy :Usa ;
you can be more critic against Usa Because Italy was eweritime in Attack and USA was in defence and the only thing that they do was pressing Italy and waiting for contrattacking…but they remain in defence all the time…for that tipe of game if you are in 11 or 1O(after the red card)there is no difference…and that tipe of game after the USA penalty made a lot of problems to Italy…because after that goal there was no more game of USA…they exasperely augment the pressing and the defence game…but this is the problem…you cannot do those kind of game against Italy…and the result tell us the truth…
you was not playing against “Pinco Pallino team…” you was playing against the fourth time Champions of the world…
and there is surely a reason of that…
Sorry for my bad english but as you surely understand im Italian…
bye to eweryone.

those player are those that augment the age “statistic” because the other are all young…
but as you understand…
they play because they can play(and they do very well…)…
the entire world would have one of those kind of player but Champion born only in Argentina Italy and Brasil.
BASTA.
your discussion against Italy was made by people who don’t understand anithing of football…
you cannot compare Italy to USA…
and you cannot critic a National team that made the History of football…
(maybe you don’t know…but all defence and contrattac tactics was all invented by the Italians…the tactic that USA use ahahahhahahah).

Ps for ITALY/NEW ZELAND…ITALY PLAY LIKE A TRAINING…THEY CHAGED 4 differents tactics modules…
even if we win 4-3…we were not playing seriously…but we take the goals thats true but i repeat for Italy that was a training because Lippi doesn’t had changed 4different’s tactics modules in a normal match…
i think that all football teams do their best against Italy because they are the World Champion…so ewery Italy’s match are not easy to play…
this is a fact…
but apparte that,those kind of thing’s strengthen eweryday much more Italy…
Italy Tifoseria are sportif when we lose a match we critic a lot our Italian team and recognise the good job of the other team…
,i don’t think that other Team/Nation had this sportivity…
The proof is the mondial in Germany when all the Deutch journalist was attacking our National Team etc etc etc…. and this also happens in ewery Italy competition…but i repeat those kind of things strengthen eweryday much more Italy…WE ARE THE CHAMPION.
W L’ITALIA.
