Why would Italy want a draw tomorrow? A win guarantees their ticket but a draw would leave it to the last match.
Does it?
A win by Italy brings them to 6 points. But if Costa Rica and Uruguay win on the 24th then they will both have 6 as well.
Or did I miss something again? Because that's been known to happen...

Also @ Greece: why are you shooting yourself in the foot?
That was needlessly reckless.

Doesn't entirely lock them up but at 6 points and the best score in the group on goals they'd be rather unlikely to end up 3rd.

But why they couldn't just do a double-elimination tournament is beyond me. It works just fine for every 12 year old.

Edit: If points are equal the first thing looked at is goals scored, if a team has scored 5 and got 3 scored against them they're at +2 so they go through over a team at +1 or worse. If 2 teams have a score of +2 they look at who has scored the most so 6 scored and 4 against is better than 3 scored and 1 against. If even that is equal they look at the results between the two teams and if even that is a draw they draw lots to see who goes through.

That was a horrible shot. Especially against Gianluigi.

Balotelli got robbed. 
So far lots of nothing happening.

I keep hearing "nobody near it" on passes and such, sounds promising. Darn work blocking the streaming video...

Balotelli ****** over Ajax in the Champions League last season by turning nothing into a penalty, he can suck it for all I'm concerned. He's got his days where he plays brilliantly but just as often he just makes nasty fouls, acts like he's dying when someone looks his way or yells at the ref all game.
Pirlo on the other hand I love to see play, that man is a wizard with the ball.

He botched that one, though.

Oh, definitely. I dislike those just as much though, it never makes the game any better.
This offsides crap is getting annoying.

And that's why Gianluigi is over-paid.

Way to break down right before halftime Italy.

Playing the back high is a good plan, but annoying as hell.

I find your anger entertaining. Go Costa Rica!

Curious about the little scuffle. Costa Rica was kind of dumb to try to walk together with Italians when things aren't going their way.

Good save. Horrible passes. Refs seem to be kind of retarded.
This is why I don't follow sports.

And for the record, that wall always had the footprint.

Turned out to be a not very exciting game, aside from the result that is. It'll make Italy - Uruguay a fantastically tense game though as that will decide who goes through.
Also, this is yet another game that shows that a video ref is a necessity as more than one bad decision of the ref has influenced the game.
Edit: Oh and this means England doesn't make it to the second round for the first time since 1954.
