yes. italy was very unlucky initialy, with offside goal of dutch. their own goal against romania was disallowed despite being ligitmate. but buffons save changed all that. they have self belief now. loss for romania against duth also helped their cause. a team which comes to QF despite all odds always comes on top. they know now their fate is in their own hands not somebody else's.

errr!! have you heard of the last defender UEFA rule? The referee had no option but to send off Abidal I like France myself but a team that can produce only 1 goal in 270 mins of football really does not deserve to go through
