Goal !!! Goal !! Goal !!! Grosso !! Grosso !! Goal !!! Goal !! Goal the Grosso !! Goal Grosso !!! Manka Un Minuto !!
Manka Un Minuto !!
Listening to Fabio Carresa's commentary, it would seem that his heart would burst at any moment.
The whole of Italy was in a state of hysteria at the time, and fans in Wolfenstein's blue jersey were bewildered. 😇
And did not understand the one who scored the goal. Shaking his head, he ran to the sidelines in such a way that
he couldn't believe what he had done a little while ago. He took Italy to the World Cup final, exactly 12
years after 1994. The 72nd celebration of Marco Tardei or Paolo Rossi has long been a part of Italian football
mythology. And Grosso went in with this goal.
But before the start of the 2006 World Cup, many in Italy did not know Grosso. Serie C means he has played in the
third division football league of Italy for some time. He also played in the second division. He played well in the
Serie A season for Palermo. And then Marcelo Lippi's eyes fell on him. Four more club teammates got the chance to
join the team. However, he was not supposed to be in the XI, at least Lippi's plan was not in any way.
But if you are lucky, who will stop you? Gianluca Zambrotta got a chance in the group stage due to injury.
Zambrotta later returned, leaving his place at the left back. But right back Christian Jacquardo was having a
nightmare tournament. Grosso therefore survived, Zambrotta moved to the right edge. Materazzi and Cannavaro were
also there.
In the second round, Italy's first reliance on Grosso was awarded a penalty against Australia. The penalty was
controversial, and there was a lot of fuss about it. In the quarter, however, Ukraine was blown away by Italy,
while in the semis, the opponent was Germany. Klinsmann's team seemed to have come a long way from the traditional
German genre in that World Cup. From the first match, he started playing football. The strike with young Podolski
was closed and Michael Balak was the engine. However, a few things happened before the two teams fought in the semis.
In Italian football, the turbulent wind of the match was blown that season. The investigation was going on at the
beginning of the World Cup, 13 people were questioned during that World Cup. And seven people have been interrogated
in the final. It was understood that a big push was coming in Italian football. Rumors spread on the morning of the
semi-final that Juventus would be stripped of the title. They will be relegated to Serie B. Lippi knew they had
another opponent off the field. That's how he prepared the team. Later, however, the rumor was confirmed.
In that poison of instability, the nervousness about the match started. Interestingly, there was a bear at the
center of it. A huge bear from Italy went to the German border and became violent, injuring several animals.
In the end, the Bavarian hunters killed the bear. But the bear named Bruno became almost a hero in Italy,
that day several Italian supporters brought small bear dolls to the stadium. A steam of instability was just freezing.
It is as if the wind is blowing in the field. Otherwise why miss Simone Perotta and Bernd Snyder from so close.
Buffon also showed his breed with some great saves. Grosso, however, could have been the hero in the second half,
if he could have picked up the ball from Pirlo. However, the real drama begins in extra time.
Lippi had already replaced Gilardino in place of Tony. This time Yakuinta was replaced by Camaronesi,
then Del Piero was replaced by Perotta. There were four strikers on the field with pen and paper.
Throughout the World Cup, he played back five of his strikers, all contributing more or less. Meanwhile,
Gilardino's shot hit the post, and soon after, Zambrotta similarly fired from a distance.
The supporters of Italy thought, this time I don't understand anymore. Podolski, meanwhile,
had a great chance, but Buffon blocked it. Pirlo made a sudden shot from a distance,
this time to Germany's defender Lehmann. But all the drama was submitted for the last few minutes.
Italy got the corner, Germany could not clear it properly. Pirlo was standing at the head of the box,
the ball came to his feet. At the moment he saw who was around, he let the Germans pull him towards him like a magnet.
Dummy once pretended to pass, then dropped the ball. Grosso seemed to be waiting for the moment,
taking the shot with the first touch on his left foot. Composing a perfect parabola,
the shot got caught in the net, but Lehmann couldn't catch it. Grosso then lost Sambit,
Buffon giving him the best run of his life to catch him. Lippi is trying to hold back the tears,
instructing the players. And Germany was in shock. They have never seen such a big tragedy in their own field.
Another goal is not to handle the push of that goal. This time a great counter attack, Del Piero wrapped the
ball in the net near Gilardino. Italy's victory in Dortmund by stopping the German festival.
A lot has happened since that match. Italy won the final, of course, and Canavro won the World Cup. After that,
Italy was shaken by the pressure of the match, having to withdraw from the first round in two consecutive World Cups.
The next World Cup did not play. The memory of Grosso's goal is still the source of Italy!
