So nice to see two teams attempting to attack
Shocking from both centre halves for the goal. Germany having started very well look clueless when Italy have the ball.
Shite from Germany. Pirlo given too much room to pick out Chiellini who was completely unmarked. Hummels turned too easily by Cassano and Badstuber awful on Balotelli.
Super ball from Cassano tbf.
Nevermind
Boateng is getting a lot of room down the right, I think our defence have been too narrow, Chiellini is a natural centre so tucks in and Balzaretti is tucking in because he’s so left footed.
I’ve had a speculative punt on ze germans
Lets try this stat once more

Montolivo, ffs sake.
Balotelli has come into this game in a big big way, he is bullying every German he’s coming across, Italy should be two up.
World class from Cassano and poor and hesitant play from Montolivo blows a wonderful opportunity.
YASSSS!!!
Mario!!!
Magnificent from Italy. They have been superb.
He should have scored, just needed to hit it on his left rather than swivel into trouble.
Buffon has been incredible.
Balotelli 2-0 and a yellow card. :lol: :lol: :lol: 
WHAT. A. FINISH!
What a fucking goal
Should have left the shirt on. A trademark moment of madness could cost him a place in the final.
Super finish, super ball from Montilivo. This a cracking game.
The Germans look to be gone here in the head departments.
Has to be a huge worry given its Mario. Long way to go yet, but the Germans are like deer in headlights at the moment, need halftime you’d think.
