Stunning rendition of our anthem, really put the Mick fucks to shame.
Easy when most of the Irish don’t know the anthem and mumble the words and if asked what it is in engerlish they couldnt tell you.
Verratti, what a little dynamo! 
Really poor touch from Immobile there when bearing down on goal.
Forde with a great save to deny Marchisio stinging drive. Oireland all over the shop.
Matt Holland’s (mis)pronunciations of the Italian players is really grating, he’s calling Rossi “De Rossi” and Montolivo “Montolivio”.
Montolivo has picked up an injury and is going to have to come off - this is very worrying. He is a key player for us.
Aquilani replaces Monty.
Italy’s main concern will be not getting clogged by one of our lumpers before the big show.
Or indeed our lumpers in their final warm-up on Wednesday
Montolivo having to be stretchered off. 
Reports are his ankle is broke???
He didn’t seem in the sort of pain that a broken ankle would bring about but he did seems to be cutting a very worried look.
Cunt of a ref
Who did the challenge that hurt him?
Pearce.
Montolivo didn’t seem to be in much distress. Maybe he was in shock.
That was a splendid bit of skill from Rossi.
Pilkington!!! fuck is he Messi’s cousin?
