Here is a video from Rai Uno in Italian after the EURO 2008 Match France 0 - 2 Italy. I included the English translation.
Enrico Variale (host) post-match interview. Sitting with Italy and Roma midfielder De Rossi and Italy and Milan defender Gianluca Zambrotta.
Variale shows the Carlsberg Man of the Match trophy on the table that Daniele De Rossi won.
00:07- De Rossi, very important on the pitch. Scored a important goal. Took control of the midfield with Pirlo and when Pirlo left.
00:21- De Rossi (speaking in Italian) I'm happy, not just for the goal, that was lucky. But about my performance and the team's performance. We are very very happy.
00:39 Variale (host)- Are you happy because Holland did its job?
00:47- About Holland doing its job- I had no doubts. I even said that a few days ago. About our performance [Italy], our condition, our will, to be able to do a convincing performance. It's not always easy, especially against a big team like France.

01:08 Variale (host)- This performace, makes up for you not being involved it the Holland game?
01:15- A little disappointed to not play in an important game like that. But I didn't feel less or more than the rest of the team. Like the manager knows I always respected everyone


















Great video Anna, thanks for adding it. Man, Kenntak and Suri must be proud of their Roma player. Have you heard from Suri?
De Rossi must play in the next match against Spain. What's your take?

I also agree with Pietro and Milan99 that De Rossi must play against Spain. De Rossi might be the revelation, while I think Aquilani also deserves a post. Don't you think?

I liked this video. The Roman accent just like Aquilani. Thanks for posting it. De Rossi is definitely growing, maturing in the national team. How decisive was his free kick!!
