Holland - Italy: 3 - 0

What a great game. That should put the memory of the same match in 2000 well to rest. At the 2000 match I was hosting some guys from UUNet. It was a mixed international crowd and some were rooting for Italy. One guy in particular was torn between the Dutch team and the Italian one because he had a Dutch father and an Italian mother. Although he said he did not care who would win, his tears of joy after Italy won seemed to indicate a slight preference for Italy :) Obviously I was disappointed that we had lost but it was a fun evening. This time I enjoyed the game with my gf and some friends at a bar with several big screens. Great fun at the beginning and it got only better. Let’s hope we can pull something like that off on Friday when we play against France.
