I thought the TV dude just said they had PK in 94

I just choked on my beer, that was so funny.

Still I don't think I've ever been so stunned in a football match in my life...

Hopefully Italia punishes France harshly for their lack of discipline. I hate that it has come to the point that I have to root for the Divers. But once again we are shown that you can't root for the French!

PK's decided 1990 Brazil/Italy at the Rose Bowl

Italy appears pretty burnt out. But they've got to press now to avoid the PK dice roll.

Going into extra-time two games in row takes a toll even on the best teams. Just look at the way Germany lost to Italy after a very demanding match against Argentina.

I think Italy wants to push more, but now they feel the after-effects of their strenuous semi-final.

One of the most amazingly stupid things I've ever seen in sports.

Then again, I'd like to hear the rest of the story. Italy is full of trash, one wonders if we are in overtime because some Italian players decided to be a Pete Rose. Or maybe they only limit their corruption to Series A play?

Do Italian radios have waving hands mounted on top of them?

Should replay the game three days later, like they used to do a long time ago. Either that of go to sudden death OT.

After what they did to e.g. McBride the Italian team also isn't exactly the poster-child for disciplined playing ;-).

But I have to agree: After that idiotic move I really don't care anymore who wins.

I'm so nervous - Italy normally don't do well in Italy. I can't watch. I want Italy to win SOOOOOOOOO bad.

Nothing said justifies what Zidane did, but I suspect we'll hear what was said. Maybe a racial slur?

I suspect Italy will win this. They have the better keeper tonight.
