Euro 2008 isnt the only football tournament this summer, obviously the Olympics arent on the same level, but there is more football to watch and that is what counts :lol: Anyways the Olympics are an U-23 tournament, but each team is allowed up to 3 over age players to bring into the team. The Groups are: A: Serbia, Argentina, Australia, Ivory Coast B: Holland, Nigeria, USA, Japan C: China, Brazil, Belgium, New Zealand D: South Korea, Honduras, Cameroon, Italy |

Italy squad:
Rocchi is the only overage player. there are a few other very good already established players though, De Silvestri, Giovinco, Montolivo, Nocerino, and Rossi are the ones I think are very good though i admit i havent seen them all play before so there may be others. They also named a 15 man shortlist of players who can be called into the squad:

I'm still bitter about Rossi choosing to play for Italy rather than the US. |

Brazil are playing Singapore on Monday. The team just arrived here yesterday and OMG. My friend saw Pato. *squishes* I really really want to watch the bloody match, even though we're going to get whipped. My cousin has 2 free tickets and he's asking me but I have an exam the next day. Screw life. <_< |
