i believe any team, irrespective of thier stature and big names, that makes it to the semis and finals of the wc, deserves to be respected and taken seriously...

Needless to say bout France, but even Portugal has also beaten teams like Holland and England... so its anybody'd game...

but i was impressed with the way Italy played its last couple of games..
out of their shelves.. attacking football !! wow.. thats just not Italy...

anyway...i'll be rooting for Portugal for the rest of the tournament...
yes Italy played really entertaining football today, and if France can win semi and goto final then it could be a great repeat of great Euro 2000 final, that match is still in my mind, back heel pass wonderfully played by Italy and they scores, when the match seems to be over, Wiltord comes and saves the day, and then comes Trezeguet and buries the volley shot in the net, what a game ...
