Hey, ASFF, I forgot to answer here. It's great to see that Italy has a lot of fans around the world. Maybe because nobody expected we could reach the final rounds. I'm happy you support us too.
Also, Batistuta was a beast. I was too young back then to remember vividly his games (perhaps even to watch them), but he's a legend of Serie A: I believe he's one of the most complete striker ever.
And... I definitely share your "disgust" for Juventus. Lol
I would have also liked to see Ukraine in the final: Shevchenko is another great player and a wonderful person.
