so far, so good for france. this is the first goal the italians have allowed during the entire cup tournament. here's a corner; it goes through the box.
yellow on sagnol. italy is putting some pressure on. totti's got it in the box. 12:03. dilly dallying around now ... gotta go check on my pancakes.

(here's my ultimate pancake recipe, mix style of course cos i'm too lazy.)

oh shit, free kick for the italians--great look too! the cross ... oh shit, thuram dives in and gives the italians a corner. no good, italians swing it out ... no dice. barthez clears it.

(whole-wheat mix, blueberries, 2 eggs, soy mild, 2 tbsp flaxseed oil, honey, cinnamon, dark chocolate flakes, grill in a lot of butter [i know] serve with fresh berries, maple syrup, maybe some pb or nutella ... allez les bleu-berry pancakes.)

french are denying the italians any solid crosses. lots of time left but the french have such solid midfielders that i doubt the italians will be able to establish much early in the match. they'll have to wear out the french.
