Prandelli is a genius! Only took five minutes for the Di Natale-Balotelli switch to pay off.

There have been flops from both sides, it's to be expected.

Indeed. I was responding at the Italian guy who went down like he got shot and rolled around on the turf for 5 minutes when he took a boot to the shoulder.

He was up and running about seconds after they helped him off. :lol:

Correct :biggrin: I was exaggerating but I do hear the quite often about soccer. To me its a case of 'not invented here.' I see a ton of complaining in the NBA in addition to flops.

That didn't take long. David Silva sees you Andrea Pirlo.

It definitely paid off, but part of his motivation was likely getting Balotelli the hell out of there before he was forced to play with 10 men. :biggrin:

This.

That's why it was genius to run him out there in the first half. Let him go crazy for 45+ minutes, and get him out of there before he screws everything up for the entire squad.

Nice bicycle attempt by Ramos, even though it was a foul.

At this point Antonio Cassano and David Silva are my Men of the Match for either side.

Great play by Buffon. Torres first touch was awful, but a smart move by Buffon to stay on his feet & not risk taking him out possibly conceding a penalty.
