tribalfootball is lots of the time loads of bull ****.. I'm inclined to think they made up this ****. I may be wrong. Are there any other sources?
edit: Apparently it is true. Dire stuff from cannavaro. Moaning about opposition physical ability? Isn't NZ supposed to use it to their advantage? What Gentile, Scirea might think of it?

Once again not expecting too much from the All Whites - they've already vastly exceeded expectations by getting up for the draw twice. Players must be exhausted and I see Nelsen had a stomach bug. Paraguay have pace which we will struggle with, though once again, you never know what could happen.
Sincerely hoping Italy lose. Or at the very least draw 0-0.

So you're saying our performance tonight is going to be the equivalent of our skates coming off and slamming into a wall of solid ice at 60 miles an hour?

Hmmmm, wouldn't mind us going out in penalties in the semi-finals. (which is what I consider crashing out in the last run as)

Huge game tonight, can't wait.
Thought about staying up all night but thought I'd better try and get a couple of hours' sleep first. Either way, work is going to be hell tomorrow. Though if we win, I may just be tempted to take the day off sick.
A few years ago I didn't think we'd qualify for a World Cup in my lifetime. Now, we have a decent chance at going through to the second round. Amazing stuff, and whatever happens tonight I'm still so proud of the way we've acquitted ourselves.
Had a good feeling about the game earlier in the week; woke up this morning and saw that Nelsen's been sick and started getting a bit of a sinking feeling. Hope he's alright, because we need him desperately.

Would still expect Paraguay and Italy to qualify, though, as per the dominant prediction after the WC draw was made.
