Italy dominated the game but the African champions, who joined their opponents at next year’s World Cup on Saturday, produced a few magical touches and defended superbly as the Italians pounded their goal in search of a late winner. Italy coach Cesare Prandelli made eight changes from the team that drew 1-1 with Germany in a friendly on Friday and his side dominated the early stages after going ahead in the 12th minute when Mario Balotelli set up Giuseppe Rossi. Rossi, shrugging off a bout of tonsillitis, showed great composure to shift the ball from one foot to the other before scoring. Nigeria coach Stephen Keshi made seven changes from the team which sealed their World Cup place by beating Ethiopia.

  • All Whites All Right New Zealand 1 Slovakia 1
    All Whites All Right New Zealand 1 Slovakia 1 – World Cup 2010 Group F Pool match Tuesday 15 th June It’s a cold grey morning in Buenos Aires as members of the local branch of the All Whites supporters club make their way to a small café in the Palermo district to watch the All Whites opening World Cup match against Slovakia. There is no need for larger premises as just four chairs in prime viewing position are pulled up and occupied. Things will be very different in two days time when Argentina plays its second game against South Korea but for now we have the place to ourselves. Its been a long wait between drinks for the All Whites and this is clear as we introduce ourselves and Josh tells us he wasn’t even born when the World Cup was played in Spain 28 years ago. The rest of us were at some stage or other of school somewhere in NZ. Argentina is football mad and it’s great to for once be on the same world stage as them. Lately when locals ask where I’m from and mention the All Blacks I am proud to reply that we also play a bit of football and in fact will be there in South Africa! The reaction of disbelief is similar to the one I get when I mention that its 23 years since the All Blacks won the Cup! The national anthems slip by unnoticed as we finish our introductions and the game gets underway in glorious South African sunshine.
