Their Domestic league is in shambles after match-fixing scandal and many players in th team are part of the big teams like juventus, AC Milan etc..

They were determined to save some pride and they have done it to some extent..

Both defences r pretty strong, especially Italy and it would take more than Zidane and henry to break up that Berlin wall..

Zidane wasn't his best against Portugal..And Italy wud probably mark him out with the fierce Gattusso in the midfield..Anyway it will be a 1-0 win for either team or a penalty heart break..
