I don't hate Italy. I hate your luck.

What luck? The luck that got us eliminated on penalties 3 world cups in a row? Or the luck where we have 24567895 goals disallowed in one match? I'm sorry but the Italian players can't tell the ref which goals to allow or disallow, as much as you want that to be true.

Gutted at the result, it was always going to be a tight game but whilst people are going to point the finger at Italy's winner being "controversial", Scotland's equaliser in truth shouldn't have stood, I was surprised it was given in truth but that's football......
Now if only Scotland would have got a result that night in Tbilisi last month, would have had a different complexion on the game.

haha the first few people who commented in the thread didnt even watch the game
"gutted", "robbed" (ronyboy), "lucky".
Scotland shouldnt have had their goal, and Di Natale's should have stood, fact.
And exactly how many times did Craig Gordon save Scotland? He is rightfully the most expensive British goalkeeper ever. Good job.

I was gutted because they lost to a last minute goal, any football fan worth their salt would feel the same in a similar situation. I agree Di Natale's goal should have stood though, there was no way he was offside when the ball rebounded to him.
I actually did watch the game, felt sick as a parrot at the end, even moreso because I found out Russia lost too. Pigsick!!

OK,the freekick of the second goal was for Scotland. But in the first half Di Natale's goal was good and Ferguson's goal was in offside (it's offside when Buffon didn't block the ball and Ferguson tap in it )
Italy played better than Scotland especially in the first half.
Scotland will not go to Euro 2008 for the match against Georgia and not for the refree against Italy

i'm really sad about scotland elimination, and twice sad because we have done a big present to france.
at the end of the games, if u take the matches between france, scotland, italy, direct matches i mean, the final standing results: italy 6 pts, scotland 6 pts, france 4 pts...cool, real? who was lucky? italy?
in fact, the reality is different: there were other 4 countries, in particular ukraina and georgia, that make the real difference between scotland and france.
the real damage for scotland was its 'low profile' in external matches.... a team, that want to reach some important goals, have to play away as well as at home.
it's not possible that scottish are terrible lions at home, and fearful sheeps away.
for everyone who have seen both matches between italy and scotland, or scotland vs ukraina, or against georgia: i can believe that we're talking 'bout scotland as the same team!!!
i remember the match played in bari,italy, where scotland made only one shot!!! (and quite far from goal), or the game played in kiev against a not-so-terrible ukrainian team, at the end
btw, i hope that scotland should qualify for the next world champ, side by side with italy (and without domenech, if god exist!)

I'll admit Italy played terrible, aside from the opening 10-15 minutes. And did not deserve to win.
Di Natalies goal should have counted though. And if it went up 2-0 at that point different game entirely. Pretty bad reffing overall, but you cant totally blame that, Scotland had the chances to finish the game off, they didnt do it.
