Re: FIFA World Cup 2026 :Canada/Mexico/United States: Discussion Thread
In addition to being one of the craziest matches of this World Cup qualifier, I would also say that it is the match where Italy really hit rock bottom.
My goodness, what a terrible match, but above all, what a terrible Italy
And what was even more terrible was the fatal overwhelm of the Italian players, who gave Israel a free goal. Just imagine, a top-tier national team like Italy gave Israel two OGs, and the first OG occurred in the 16th minute. Was Italy's defense that bad? Or something wrong? hahahaMy goodness, what a terrible match, but above all, what a terrible Italy
And this was actually a pretty ridiculous number of goals conceded for Italy, even Gattuso admitted it. 4 goals conceded, and 2 of them were from OG. And Italy scored 5 goals. Wow, 9 goals in one match, that's pretty crazy.
