Italy v San Marino

It was David vs. Goliath today and Goliath won, comfortably and easily.  It was to be expected from one of the best teams in the world against some accountants, bankers, electricians and school teachers.  Italy beat San Marino 4-0 which is actually surprising, considering how Italy usually plays against lowly opposition in friendlies or friendlies in general.  It was Italy's last match before a World Cup qualifier next week and then onto the pointless and meaningless Confederations Cup in Brazil.  Gli Azzurri played a lot of people that don't get much playing time besides Pirlo and Buffon.  Players like Aquilani and Gilardino got to pad their national team stats, while Balotelli just megged the crap out of some lawyers, but couldn't score as he hit the post about 4 times.  Alberto Aquilani went up for a bicycle kick that would've been a spectacular goal, but instead kicked a plumber right in the chest.  Doesn't he realize the man has to go to work on Monday?  Italy had the ball in San Marino's half just for about 89 minutes besides one surprising shot that San Marino had that was batted down by Gigi Buffon like he was playing with some 7 year olds.  No disrespect to San Marino, I give those guys credit for going out against world class talent and getting their asses kicked every time and not complaining about it.  Not that we would know anyway, it's not like they get media attention.  Although, you won't see in Italian newspapers talking trash about the San Marino team like you saw England do a couple months ago when they beat San Marino 8-0.  The English thought they were so good beating a bunch of people who play football for fun with their players who get paid millions and don't stand a chance against teams like Italy or Spain.  Anyway, it was kind of a boring match.  It was just fun seeing Italy completely dominate a team like that and get a comfortable win.
