Here is a video of our Italian and Bayern Munich striker Luca Toni  interviewed by Carlo Paris from RAI UNO on the EURO 2008 Match France 0 - 2 Italy .  I included the English translation.





Here is the English  translation from the interview in Italian.

Luca Toni - ...even the last shot, hit the bar. But I'm happy. I think I did a great thing. It wasn't important that I score but that Italy is here. Now that we are in the quarterfinals, we'll go all the way.

00:24 Carlos Paris [reporter] Like Donadoni said, united, every time there was an error from Cassano or from another player, he would yell out your names and encourage you. This is very beautiful.

Luca Toni- I think that's the secret. In Italy once you do a bad game like the we did against Holland, the players and the manager get lots of criticisms.

I think the strength of this group is to always be united. I think we showed it with Romania and tonight with France. This is a united group and will try 100% to get to the end.

01:05- Carlos Paris [reporter]- He will be missed by everyone for sure. For the striker Toni, how much will he miss Pirlo and Gattuso?

01:10- Luca Toni-  It's normal. Andrea for us strikers is important because he helps us get in goal. And Riino. He's a gladiator. So they are 2 players who are strong. If they are part of this national team it's because they're great players. I think that he who will play in his place will give a 100% and be able to give another dream to all Italians.
