Today I actually wanted to post about the current shambolic state of Italian football, however I thought best of it as I may upset a few people. Therefore instead I’ll praise the Italian national rugby team who fought like lions today in Rome and valiantly attempted to beat the undoubtedly technically superior English team. The game ended 12-17 to England however the Italians (uncharacteristically) had the game by the scruff of the neck for long stretches and even kept up the pressure when they were reduced to 14 men. As the team improves year after year we can only hope for our first victory against England in the six nations, until that time Forza Azzurri!
For our Italian readers
And in English
