the seniors in the friendly and the u19's in the euros

[ruud]

i really dont think you should care so much about a friendly...

[Piola]

meh wouldnt expect too much

firstly Italy and Greece have no such rivalry so the game will not have any real importance to it

secondly, Italy almost always use fringe players in matches like these, like how we lost to Hungary a year ago

finally, i can find no record of it on a real Italian site so unless you have proof its crap

[The Kop]

anywho, Greece vs Italy in the u/19 championships is on wed or thurs morning our time.
No Greek channel is showing the event (instead they are showing basketball).

Perhaps one of our friendly eye-talian forumites can direct me to a stream??????

thanks.

[LETHAL]

Friendly.. who cares really

In australia people wont take it like that, they'll take it as a world cup match

I won't

dont think too many other Italians will.

considering we've won 4 World Cups, these matches mean nothing to us. until 2010, club football is where it's at

NON MOLLARE PERCHE`
C'E` UN CURVA CHE CANTA PER TE

[Gate_13]

Greece to destroy

[Piola]

playing the world champions' 3rd string side in a meaningless friendly is the closest Greece will get to a World Cup final, so I forgive you for taking pride if you win

[totsreds08]

yeah its a friendly..who cares. the result doesn't have much importance. a game would only count for something if the teams were playing for something

[Motley]

when people are saying we will put our 2nd string side out there or 3rd string side out there, its either conceding defeat or covering up incase of losing.

Sure its only a friendly, but dont want to hear the tune change if the azzuri wins. If this game was live on sbs i bet the marios and the arthurs would break the ratings record.

Not bad for a friendly.

[Juventino]

Yeh I'd watch and i would want the performance to be good. If it means playing well but also losing, who cares. If it means playing bad and winning then you have to look at why it was bad.

exactly, its a friendly, not a life or death match as the Greeks are making it out to be.

Lippi will no doubt give some of the inform Serie A players a run, maybe give a couple of Azzurrini their debuts.

a match to test things, not a match to win at all costs.

[King Henry Returns]

every greek and italian in australia will go crazy

I dont think any Italian will be going crazy.
