Sky say tha everything come out during the game, probably the cold rain.
The GK doesn't run enough to keep him warm...

I'm relatively happy with the draw, I honestly didn't believe we'd be
able to pull one back. Despite a considerable advantage in possession
time, the best we could do was a couple of long range shots. Italy's
going nowhere.

Quickie player ratings (on the standard italian 4-8 point scale, with
possible extreme outliers)

Buffon: 5 Reaaly should be a no rating, but he can't get himself
injured all the time.
Zambrotta: 6
Cannavaro: 6.5
Chiellini: 5
Criscito: 5
De Rossi: 6.5 (improved in the second half)
Montolivo: 6.5 (better in the first half, then ran out of gas)
Pepe: 7 . Pleasant surprise: lots of hustle and OK from set pieces.
Marchisio: 5 Disappointment
Iaquinta: 5
Gilardino: 5

Marchetti: 6 Didn't have to do much, but looked confident.
Camoranesi: 4 Lost every ball he touched, lucky not to get a red
card. God only knows why Lippi brought him to South Africa after the
dreadful season he's had.
Di Natale: 5 Almost as bad as Camoranesi, but in less time.

Probably your digestion is blocked from 2006...

I emphatically disagree with Lippi's suggestion that Italy deserved to
win the match. 1 - 1 was a just result. I know that a slick field can
be intimidating to a defender trying to clear a ball. But how many
times did Italy's defenders give the ball away in their own third?
That being said, Paraguay didn't show much either.

This is the worst Italian team I can remember, no chance for the fifth
star:-(
