Was at the game, behind goal, about 10 rows back from where Grosso and Del Piero scored. Was sooooooooooo tense, so exhausted. At about 115 mins, turned to my brother and remember saying “greatest game of football ive ever seen”, and that was still nil nil. Only about 2000 azzurri in the stadium, tedeschi’s were giving us heaps. Went apeshit when we scored, kissing and hugging every azzurri supporter within reach. Second goal, we were both crying with happiness. Anone who says words can decribe it, wasnt there. Will NEVER forget it, FCUKING AMAZING, FCUKING INCREDIBLE,wish ever azzurri fan could have had just a little of that feeling. Still getting goosebumps now, Tony, Forza Italia

Still remember this day like it was yesterday….Caffe Amici, Commercial drive, Vancouver. In the back of the bar packed like sardines on a muggy day, 119 minutes of intense action…..then….SHEER ECSTASY!!!

Like others, I lived through the heartache at the s. Paolo in 90, PKs in the Rose Bowl in 94, PKs again in St Denis in 98, 2000……I am still bitter to no end….July 4th, 2006, with one curling, left footed strike, eased almost 20 years of heartache

I was watching alone in my room it was too intense to be with anyone else when grosso scored i thought i was in a dream..Del P was the icing on the cake especially for Alex himslef after all the failure hes had in the past with the national squad i rember the euros before the guy couldnt finish off france and we lost in golden goal, this made up for it. Greatest game I have ever watched that and Italia-Holland euro’s from 2000

Awesome! I was holed up watching the game with a few people inside during 4th of July celebrations. My phone went off just seconds before the Grosso goal. While talking, the ball went in and I threw phone across the room (busting it in half but, oh well). Most excitingly tense to euphoric moment!

When Italy beat Germany in their own home, I knew it that we were going to be the champion. Wonderful night, intense as hell.

i was watching it on my own at about 4am in the middle of the night in australia! it’s just not the same down under, and my family and italian friends live the other side of the world! Still i made still enjoyed it and screamed my head off when the goals went in. Cant say the same for my missus though, who was trying to sleep in bed.

That was without a doubt my favorite Italia game I have ever watched. My cousin and I were watching it at my grandparents house. We were in the back room and everyone else was in the front room. When grosso scored we absolutely erupted. My family was not even phased by it because they were used to it.

I was at work for the first half, watching it on the computer. When my shift was over I went over to my godfather house because my family and cousin where over there. We all went nuts when Grosso scored and then when Del Piero scored I ran down the street cheering and jumping saying one more game. The best part for me is when Cannavaro won both headers that lead to Del Piero goal.
