Wow... England got served.

I haven't seen Italy beat up on Englishmen like this since Operation Harpoon.

If it looked like Italy was going to lose, they would have switched sides and joined the English.

BTW, I spent way too much time trying to find some WWII battle the Italians actually won against the British...

Still, back to Soccer... The thought of Italy and Costa Rica advancing... If that can happen, then then Team USA has a chance to get into the knockouts!
