  1. Italy putting the clamps down, while still attacking. Great save by the Cd’I keeper stops it from being 3-0.

    89th now.

  2. Another Italy goal from the #10 Sebastian Giovinco. This one came off of a long free kick. First goal was a nice opportunistic finish by the same player.

  3. Goal Italy, 65th. Not sure what happened, I was on the phone for 2 mins flat, came back, and the goal had happened. Argh.

  4. Nice diggin’ – go Etats-Unis!!! French is goofy, how do you turn ‘Holland’ into ‘Pays-Bas’?

    Still 0-0 in the 52nd, no subs yet. Tight match, decently played.

  5. Ivory coast look good in the middle and up front. Backline have some serious nerves. Italy w/ better play toward the end of the 2nd half and their defense is tremendous (no surprise there).

  6. Italy gives up a soft penalty, but the keeper is up to the task. Fair is fair, great move but not really a penalty.

    0-0 30th

  7. Don’t have the full lineups but Giovinco and Pelle are playing for Italy.

    Ivory Coast looks pretty tough and I’m not sure the U.S. team will win a game in this tournament.

  8. 0-0 in the 12th, I’m only half paying attention, there is work to do around here and there is a little match at 2:30 I want to be free to watch. But some good flashes of talent on display in the early going.
