So Sad.
Suarez should be banned for life. This could have changed things for Italy.. we could have drawn...and then who knows.
However, I'm not delusional, as a die hard Italy fan regarding both Marchisio tackle (probably a red), as well as the way Italy played, which was really bad. The technical setup seemed wrong (as Prandelli suggested), the technique and first touches of the players dropped nearly 3-4 levels from the England game. Against England, we played well, showed good touches and the ability to keep the ball and create.. since then it's been just insanely awful.
I don't blame Prandelli for warning to put Balotelli at the forefront.. However, they just didn't create enough for him.. he looked alone, confused, and useless.
Also, the days of Gattuso, Nesta, Cannavaro, Zambrotta, Totti, Inzaghi, and Del Piero are over. Soon if not already for Pirlo too. We need to swallow that...and it's difficult.
