Julio Cesar deserves a 10 rating, stopped everything tonight, denied Toni from point blank range, and then saved a good freekick by Grosso and just kept everything out of the net. Our player Alves came in minute 69' for Elano and played as a right midfielder. Put it a few crosses, but was quiet the rest of the time. To sum it all up: Italy got owned by some brilliant Brazilian football. :smile:
P.S - Sorry for the messy recap, this is all just what I saw first hand.
