One of the best ever defensive performance in World Cup history by Fabio Cannavaro

[justsam]

Italy vs Germany matches are historically some of the best football matches ever played.
Great teams, unreal rivalry.

[juventus]

That run of Del Piero towards the german goal after 120 minutes is pure done by the spirit of a italian heart and then he scores of a brilliant pass of cried.

[naseerrahyaab]

That pass by Pirlo was out of this world.
This match never gets old.

[corsairgamingyt]

The Italian defence was so solid. I was only able to see highlights. Now that I'm able to see the full game, I just realised how much of an obstacle Italy was that year. This team was a walking fortress.

[kleinerStachel]

That defense from Cannavaro and that pass from Pirlo. Just instant classic forever !

[dharmayasa]

This italian squad are special.
Full of Legends from back to front.

[BogotaDenk]

Andrea Pirlo's pass in Grosso's goal play: That was Italy's key to the final.

[BorlockShaman]

I am an Italian living my whole life in Germany, I was 16 watching this with all my german friends.
In the 118 Minute they said they wanted to go smoke a cigarette before the penalties and I went with them. I forgot my pack of smokes at my seat near theTV and went back when the goal happened. I screamed so loud out of my lungs and they all ran back into the room devastated and they couldnt believe it. This was one of the best days of my life and I will never forget it.

[mangoesboy]

The goal scored by Grosso and his celebration are forever etched in my memory. One of the most entertaining world cup matches I have seen. Wow!

[s.o]

From Del Piero to De Ligt, Buffon has really played in a lot of generations 😂

[thecounto]

The greatest ever game of Football. Period and I’m from New Zealand. Watched this as a 17 year old.

[anitasasmita]

I'm an Indonesian but my favorite national football team is Italy..I sobbed like a baby when Grosso scored, and laughing really hard when Del Piero scored in final minutes..Forza Gli Azzurri..
Love from Indonesia..

[bianconero]

14 years later still watching this with a smile on my face.Thank you 🇮🇹 for the memories, you deserve this.Greetings from 🇧🇦

[rfk]

Italians - most magical people in the world. Huge respect and love from India. I have watched the highlights of this match at least 200 times. Ageless match.

[achatterjee]

The level of intensity, passion and excitement was unbelievable in this match. All awake well into midnight in India, Buffon's saves were giving us heart attacks and finally Grosso's goal erupted a volcano.

[Rationalthinker-en]

Pirlo was a genius midlfielder, one of the best ever.

[chrishimmelmann]

Grosso‘s goal, as scored after Pirlo‘s pass, is a historic piece of art, a painting. Which I have no problems admitting as a German, having watched it live on TV back then.

[OgaSammy]

The last four minutes of this match will NEVER be forgotten by those who participated and those who watched it live. Fourteen years later, I still screamed my lungs out
