The Italians have gone ahead and done it again.
The Azzurri have done the opposite of Forza, and missed the World Cup.
That devastating blow for the proud footballing nation who has won the biggest tournament in the world 4 times, comes after they fell to Bosnia Herzegovina at the final stage of qualifying.
Like their famous tanks in World War 2, the Italians were reduced to one gear (reverse) after receiving a red card this morning, before eventually shitting the bed in a penalty shoot out.
With shades of Roberto Baggio in the shootout, the Azzurri are now set to miss their third World Cup in a row.
Hahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahah.
However, while supporters of the famous football team are understandably devastated, for Socceroos fans the latest failure brings with it another little drip of small pleasure.
That's because the Azzurri are clearly still cursed from stealing the World Cup from us in 2006.
Written about a million times, Fabio Grosso and his filthy band of cheats stole the Round of 16 match from the Aussies with a disgraceful dive after 90 minutes.
With Totti, who should have been a Socceroo (take note Volpato), slotting the penalty, the Italians went on to claim the trophy that should rightfully have been ours.
While they achieved nirvana, thankfully the soccer gods brought them back down to earth and have cursed them ever since.
And may that curse last another 100 World Cups.
More to come.
