Italia's Francesco Totti put it away today at the World Cup. It may as well have been a photo-finish since for 94 minutes (and thus into overtime) neither team scored. Then, an Aussie stumble and some fancy Italian footwork handed Italia the chance for a penalty goal. In the 95th minute Italia WINS on Francesco Totti's penalty kick. He came all the way back from a badly broken leg in 2005 to his first-ever World Cup goal today on the penalty. They must already be in the streets and will be partying tonight in Roma and across Italia. Bravo Francesco, bravo Italia! Just one tiny thing: Was it me or did I really see Totti stick his thumb in his mouth as he celebrated his goal?? Anyway... thanks, Australia, for a game well-played.
