Touche, mon ami! They played the cunning game and won when it COUNTED!

That is a nice quote,specially when it comes from the To sun.
Where in Toronto are you?

Reallly, Spain were much better.  Italy were not at the races and when they went down to 10 players it was all but over.

Unfair … is not the word that comes to mind. Plain spayed really well! Congrats!

(I didn’t even know that "spay" was a word. You should look it up if you don’t know the meaning.)

Humiliated by the conquistadors!
Oh well, the best team won the match. Overall though, I think Italy was the best team throughout the competition.

Looks bad for Italy. I’m hoping for an early Italian goal to bring the suspense back.
