I can't help but notice Buffon being one of the greatest GKs of all time, messed up this penalty shootout. Just that one French player messed up more xD

[@DonPasquale_]

@@mnd7381 goalkeepers can’t really mess up a penalty shootout. The shooter has full advantage. A goalkeeper not making any saves isn’t messing up, it’s the expected outcome. That’s why keepers that make multiple saves in a shootout are regarded as heroes and recognized for it.

[@bestgrimbarianever]

that would've been true if he'd missed it, and they went on to lose... but not necessarily, he still could have missed it, which would have took the shootout into sudden death, and then italy could've still won... he wouldn't have cared about missing it then even if being slightly disappointed with himself personally :P but i get what you're saying 100% :)

The stakes of a world cup final. The pressure is immense, I don't know how you recover if your life's work is football and you miss a penalty to win the World Cup, it's quite terrifying if you think about it.

[@juanjo6992]

Fabio Grosso: almost lost in the football world map since the beginning to the end of his career. But he scored one of the most shouted and beautiful goals in the history of Italy against Germany in the last minute and the last penalty for being champions of the world. Enough and more joy than an average footballer for his entire life

[@danielbrown8071]

Right, honestly I would have never known Grosso if he didn’t score against Germany

[@mistert6978]

“Football world map” what does it means? At that time, he was one of the best left back in Italy, playing for Palermo, fighting for the European spots and quite often beating top teams like Milan, Inter, Roma or Juventus. Later then he went to Inter and Juventus. He’s not remembered only for this pen (obviously it would be the highlight of any career) Probably he wasn’t famous in Europe only because most of the people looks only their favourite teams and 2/3 teams from other championships.

[@nevilas8198]

One of the best left back ever. Even though his career was short. The best ever left full backs performance in the history of world cup. I still remember his curving goal against Germany in 2006, back then I was 13 years old. It was awesome, even though I couldn't accept it

Hard to win shootouts against Argentina and Germany. History proves it. If you looked at Mbappe's face after his last chance in 2nd extra time you'd see that he KNEW they're going to lose. Emi Martinez might be an a*shole but he's a machine in penalties.

[@justalaugher]

@@detonator2112 And hugo lloris was also a big disadvantage for France. For Argentina's third penalty, paredes actually slipped before taking the shot. The ball was slow with an easy angle as coman's shot, and lloris guessed the correct direction and he even touched the ball, but somehow he still let the ball cross the goal line. I am not sure if he was just too bad or he had already mentally collapsed at that point.... I really felt any average keeper could have stopped that one.

Even 16 year's later, it still amazed me how on earth Barthez could not save a single penalty. The matter of the fact is, he was a great shoot stopper as he saved many in his career including Beckham's.

[@camicawber]

He at least guessed right on a couple of those. Materazzi and de Rossi scored because they put the ball where basically nobody could save it. Buffon, an all-time legend, went the wrong way all four times. Of course, that just means that he didn't get a chance to save the fifth penalty, which he could have done. But Barthez was better than Buffon here - he was just unfortunate that Materazzi and de Rossi were pretty much perfect on their kicks while Trezeguet hit the bar.

I wouldn't swap this for any other sporting result.....watching Italy win the world cup in 82 and 06 was just special and defeating england in euro 2020 again on penalties and at wembley was awesome...forza azzuri forever

In the wave of dramatic 2022 final.. people forget this super dramatic finale

[@johnny6610]

Not me. Italy was boring and known to park the bus

[@mitchkim6763]

In I’m humble opinion, this was the greatest side ever to win it all. What’s crazy is that every one of those players in the Italian team played for an Italian club!!!

[@meedo2009k]

Ohhh One of the great day of my life 👍👍👍👍 FORZA AZUREEE 🇮🇹

[@tbrZW]

Italy played some serious football at this world cup. Their defensive organisation was out of this world

To all the haters……Italy are the current European Champions simples Forza Italia 🇮🇹

I was 8 and was living in the Netherlands. Still remember the neighbours coming to our house and congratulating us. Forza Italia

Imagine telling Italian fans at that moment of time that they won't be seeing their team in the World Cup again for the next 20 years 😶‍🌫

[@LaVelaPunk]

Creo que este fue el último gran mundial. Antes de que el fútbol se volviera tan comercial. Por cierto el primer mundial que ví siendo un niño ya completamente lucido.

[@mariolaulettabenardelli3508]

Ojalá ITALIA vuelva a estar en un mundial y tener ese protagonismo que tuvo en otros mundiales.... vamos ITALIA ... ARRIBA ITALIA !!!!....por otro mundial y otra copa del mundo para la AZZURRA....

[@Mario-uw9ip]

Del Piero, Cannavaro, Gattuso, Pirlo, Toni, Camoranesi, Totti, Zambrotta, Buffon, Grosso, Barzagli…those who say this italian national team was not strong, just don’t understand much about football. Cannavaro was undoubtely the best defender of the tournament, while Buffon was still the best goalie worldwide. Useless to say they were both playing for Juventus .

Me too

Two defenders, Two Midfielders, 1 Attacker. All scored

[@RotimiOrimoloye]

I'm just really happy for Del Piero and Totti. This gave me a huge consolation after years of feeling sad for Roberto Baggio.
