I don’t think I blame them Des, they drew the short straw I reckon, Italy in Rome first game. Don’t envy them at all, I’d have hated for us to be involved in the opener tonight. A heavy defeat and maybe your tournament is shot to bits before it’s even started, get a scruffy draw though in what is most probably your hardest group game sets you up nicely for your two ‘home’ games.
