Italy angry at rivals' draw

Best bet is to scrape the topping off the pizza and throw the base away.

And if you thought the Italy situation was confusing......If the Holland - Latvia games ends 0-0 and the Germany - Czech Republic game ends 2-3 then Germany go through on UEFA coefficient (Germany, Holland and Latvia would all be tied on 2 points apiece)

I hate pizza

even if the games against bulgaria had counted for anything, italy would have still gone out.

sweden 5 bulgaria 0
denmark 2 bulgaria 0
italy 2 bulgaria 1.

italy deserve to go which ever way you look at it.

I was thinking that too - there's no feeling sorry for the ities, they had their chances and blew them so it's cheerio . Their best game was against Sweden and they still only drew.
