I think that is what he was trying to say. Of course not just Italy does it, but I consider them to be one of the masters at theatrics, so he isn't too far off.
Thank you, that's exactly what I was going for.

One word: CASILLAS!! THREE awesome saves, what a ing legend. Really upset with Argones for not leaving Torres in the duration of the match, he had a ton of close goals and imo Guizan kind of blew one or two chances.
I was really struggling to figure out why they took Torres out as well - in my opinion he was playing the best on the Spanish side (with the exception of Casillas) in the second half.

i've read some stat that Torres is replaced in a ridiculous percentage of the games he plays - my guess is he just doesn't have a lot of stamina, so Aragonés wanted a fresh player

Torres looks like a girl. And apart from his offense he plays like a bitch - there is absolutely no use for him on the pitch if the other team is not allowing any passing lanes and you know you're headed for penalties.

Majorly disappointed with italy last night. Didn't deserve the win, far too one dimensional with the ball as well.
Hoping for a russia win in this tournament now. By far the most entertaining team left in it.

Too bad he's one of the best/fastest strikers in the world. lol

Torres seemed to be getting a bit impatient and was leaving his position looking for the ball. I'm sure Aragones doesn't put up with that.
