Ten good reasons why we'll win ....

After four years of waiting .... I know that Italy is up for something good this time, with all my faiths, I wish them good fortune and lift the World Cup. God bless Italy

Ten good reasons why we'll win ....
  1. - Because, for many of the Italian players, Germany 2006 represents a last chance to win a major title with the Azzurri. After all, the likes of Fabio Cannavaro, Francesco Totti, Filippo Inzaghi and Alessandro Del Piero are not getting any younger.
  2. - Because the Italians’ motivation is massive after 28 years without a win over the French.
  3. - Because the Italian players know many of the French players inside out after having played against them repeatedly in Serie A or the UEFA Champions League.
  4. - Because Italian confidence levels are sky-high after the victory over their German hosts.
  5. - Because Italy are the most solid team in the tournament, especially in defence (just one goal conceded, and an own goal at that).
  6. - Because Gennaro Gattuso is perhaps the only midfield enforcer in the world capable of keeping the brilliant Zinedine Zidane quiet.
  7. - Because Lilian Thuram has himself said that Italy have been the best team at the tournament.
  8. - Because France are the oldest side in the tournament and must therefore be tired after having played six games.
  9. - Because the scandal currently rocking Italian football is strangely reminiscent of the one that shook Calcio just before the Azzurri's triumph at Spain 82.
  10. - Because whoever is involved, a FIFA World Cup Final invariably turns on a simple twist of fate.
Last of ALL, I want them to WIN !!!
