Italy Cameroon 0-0

Nothing much to say about Italy's 0-0 tie last night with Cameroon. Coach Marcello Lippi claimed it was useful to try out some new players and styles. Although these matches are important to see how the teams are shaping up, they are meaningless in terms of standings.

Around the world, the United States lost to the Netherlands 2-1, England beat Egypt 3-1, Spain beat France 2-0, and Argentina beat Germany 1-0.

Italy vs Cameroon Tonight

The defending World Cup champions are tuning up for this summer in South Africa with a 'friendly' game tonight against Cameroon (who features Inter Milan striker Samuel Eto'o). Although the game itself is not very important, it's a glimpse of what we'll be seeing this summer.
Many say that gli azzuri are too old to bring home the World Cup again, favoring teams like Spain, England or Brazil, but then again, non si sa mai!

The game will be on Rai 1 (channel 1 on your TV), so you don't necessarily have to go to a pub to see it, and starts at 8:45 pm.
