World Cup Soccer in Italy

Wednesday July 5, 2006
It was an exciting night last night for Italians. Italy won their semi-final match against Germany by a 2-0 score in the second overtime period. We could hear the cheering from our neighbor's terrace and car horns honked to mark the victory. Italian flags are hanging everywhere. The World Cup is a real source of pride here in Italy. Will Italy take the cup in the final match on Sunday? Everyone here is hoping for it!
