Hello my friends. I usually greet you with a “good morning.” Today, believe me, it’s not a really good morning. It’s just a nightmare awakening to a crude reality. I have barely slept watching all news online on the elimination of Italy, out of the World Cup. Yep, sadly, it is true. Italy eliminated after losing against Uruguay. However, the news going worldwide is on Uruguay “Cannibal” forward Luis Suarez biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini and not even getting a yellow card!!!
Well, guys, to top the whole pizza pie, Head coach Cesare Prandelli resigned right after the game during the press conference and also Abete the president of the Italian Football Federation. Simply put, guys, it is a total failure!!! I agree with Buffon and, wait.. now it seems most players blaming also forward Mario Balotelli… Hum? So, now, allow me to go and prepare a heavy cup of Chamomile tea to calm down.
Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Wednesday 25 June 2014

Zeroed out
-World Cup collapse.
Uruguay eliminate Italy: 1-0 (Godin). Terrible performance, but Marchisio’s sending off weighs heavily.

Prandelli leaves along with Abete: “It is a failure.” Already looking to the future: Allegri or Mancini.
-The controversy.
Suarez bites Chiellini: “Shame.” Buffon and De Rossi against Balotelli: “Men are needed.”
