Pirlo's vision and composure in the first goal is out of this world. I remember I was watching this game with my dad and we were screaming at him to shoot, since he had the angle and was open, yet he dribbles one extra time luring another defender, looks for space and finds Grosso completely unmarked. It's an incredible goal and Pirlo puts all his talent on display.

[ThomasWilliams]

That Italian team was packed full of legends.

I'm not italian, but this is still my favourite World Cup game ever!

[prof.m.renzulli]

The germans never lost any match in that stadium before this, unbelievable!!

[gabehassports]

Damn this Italian team was scary. Such legends like Del Piero, Pirlo, Grosso, Canavaro, Zambrotta, Giardino, Buffon at goal, this team was just to good.

[vrs]

The pass by Pirlo to set up the goal by Fabio Grosso is just top.
Italy conceded 2 goals in the entire tournament- an own goal and Zidane’s penalty. Need I say more.

As an American 11 year old child my family just happened to be in Italy for this match. I had only seen a couple of matches of soccer before ever in my life. I’ll never forget after the final whistle blew, running out of our hotel with an Italian flag tied to a wooden spear yelling Italy Italy. I was the first person out there and people started cheering me and Italy from their buildings. Soon a whole crowd emerged and the city wide party started. My sister carried me on her shoulders through the weaving roads and over the canals. Eventually I went off on my own wearing my sisters high heels so I wouldn’t get glass in my feet. I’ll never forget that day for the rest of my life. It was a big part of what made me fall in love with the sport. Really wish we could have been there for the final though

That no look pass by Pirlo.
That finish by Grosso.
That finish by Del Piero.
Beautiful Italia🔥💯⚽

Back when Italy knew how to choose a Squad and Coach. This was the greatest World Cup I ever watched.

[Consolous]

Italy is my favorite team and country even though I'm not Italian. This is my favorite Italy match against another of my favorite teams, Germany. Back then they had so many superstars. Hope Italy can awake such prowess they once had.

[antonielavoisier]

I loved you Italy, I love you and I shall love you Italy I admire your team, culture, history, civilization, foods, language, people

[Timbuktu]

Even though I am German I could watch that a hundred times. What a great team Italy had back then..

[ckna]

i feel that smell of july 2006, beautiful hot evenings of that summer, everything was gorgeous!

[hydra]

What a brilliant game this was!
It’s really a shame how far Italy have declined now. Hopefully they can
rebuild for the 2022 World Cup. It’s not a World Cup without the Italians!
