Hamburg turns blue

Thousands of infectiously eager Italians dressed in blue crowd the streets of Hamburg today as we wait for the Italy-Ukraine match tonight at 9:00 (here in the states at noon).

Fans are delighted and relieved to learn that the beloved Totti is ‘not at all tired’ and will be playing in the match.  This game is, obviously, very important as a win brings the Azzurri oh so much closer to playing in the final match.
