we better not lose to italy
RIP to your sleep schedule for the next while 😅 I hope the rugby will be entertaining enough to keep you awake for it all! I liked this match, yes it was at times a bit shaky but boy, when Italy wants to perform they absolutely can! So great to see Capuozzo back in the squad, it seems like a very close knit group. I think the fans would’ve liked it to be a bit closer for more of a competitive match but they got through the heat (training and playing in the mid-thirties is no joke) I’m watching the England match right now and I’m a bit worn out after all this rugby!
As a Namibian I'm happy with the result. It could have been worse.😊
Just watched England game, that was embarrassing , free kicks and drop goals. Ref would not let Argentina gain any momentum at all terrible ref too
Its amazing how well namibia play considering how rampant the corruption is… they dont even have 1 playable national level stadium
great summary
So Italy just managed to scrape the victory then? That is what your review sounds like. I have huge respect for you, I think you have huge potential to make so much more of your communication skills but occasionally I think you get things out of perspective and it may do you good to listen to your own posts. Italy were in control of this game and gave an excellent account of themselves. Without the score on your board and listening to the lilt of your voice you could almost think Namibia were in with a chance of winning this game with 10 minutes to go, that was not the case. Please take this as positive feedback.
Eh Mark? Did you miss a game?
Forza italia! Come long way. Best yet to come. Enjoy watching your progress from UK
Hope you slept well! Well doen for fitting this one in so soon. Well done Italy but Namibia looked good for a while
I wonder if the italian coach listens to your review. Lots of pointers. Thanks Mark
I think Italy played an ok/less then expected first quarter, a terrible second and a half quarter and the last quarter and a half was how they should always play. I’m Italian, I really hope we can play like the last 20 minutes both games against NZ and France, or i really think we won’t be able to get out of the pool
Dropped a lot of ball seems to be a bit of an issue . Namibia good score but Italy just started to turn the screw . Was a decent enough game.
Despite the score line showing a resounding defeat for the Namibians, the later looked good. When you consider that they are non-professionnels playing against Italy, who are, I thought they played well. Just don't have the fitness to go the full 80.
It's an Italian work in progress but I'm sure against AllBlack and France ll'be a close game. 🇮🇹❤️
Namibia fly half got power in his boots but lack accuracy
No way is Italy beating NZ
Yeah Namibia and the rest of the other tier 2 African teams need a professional comp in future.
Italy seem to play better rugby than football these days.
Can't wait for Italy v New Zealand
