Talking about pressure! I almost faint when the match was over and Italy had to go to penalties! Imagine the kind of pressure of Maria del Carmen, the mom of Spain Goalkeeper Iker Casillas that she fainted before the beginning of the penalties!
I totally understand her and thanks God she is ok now. Sadly is that her joy is our sadness. They are celebrating this important victory taking them 88 years! Quarterfinals SPAIN 4 - 2 ITALY
Casillas became the hero of Vienna!

I'm real happy for her, but sad for myself!

Same here girl. Man, i still can't get over this lost and woke up thinking it was only a nightmare, but the first thing hitting my eyes was the front page of La Gazzetta that Anna included here with the "Tutto e' finito".
In good sportsmanship, i am glad Casillas' mom is ok and congrats them too for their victory which is my pain. It reminded me of the situation with Mark and his Inter and us with our Milan. What's your take?

Yeah I agree with u, Pietro, but God bless our Azzurri, just like my mom said in soccer there is win or lose. when I thought about it i said at least we pasted with such a bad performance. But I'm still sad, and don't expect me to be over it! I would love to cheer our Azzurri in 2010 but at the same time I should be cheering for Argentina.
