Henning and Elizabeth, thank you for your words of commiseration - but Italian friends here, don't let this spoil the enjoyment of your team getting through to the quarter finals!
Cheers

I know. Iknow.
It is such an unforgiving game. So much frustration and emotion and so little outlet!
It has never been about the winning for me.
I gladly congratulate my opponents when they defeat me. But if they sook and cheat and win and the game allows it, then the game sucks.!
You rarely see a sook in Aussie Rules or Rugby. They would be abused by their own supporters if they did.
Why are they so sooky in soccer/football?
What did they do with their balls????
I want to like the World Game but I am used to a better one!!!
Few sooks. Few cheats. And many goals to satisfy the soul.
