Gianni Truvianni
Italy 34 was the second world cup to be played as well as the first one to be hosted by a European country. It being Italy who won their first championship in a tournament which they also had to qualify for along with 15 other teams. This factor making Italy the first and last nation to have to qualify for a world cup which they, themselves organized.

Italy and the Pressures of Being Champion
by
Gianni Truvianni
Italy won the world cup in Germany in the year of 2006 when they, in Berlin, defeated France on penalties to not only claim the title but the fourth one in their history. All of which making Italy the reigning world champion yet in all this it would be unfair to say that Italy is still the best team as four years have passed since then and many of the players who won are older by the same number of years.

London 2012 Olympics: The Return of Uruguay's Soccer
by
Alejandro Guevara Onofre
Universally famous for its talented footballers, the South American republic of Uruguay will compete in the men's Olympian soccer championship in the Briton capital of London in July and August 2012, after a 84-year absence in the Olympiad. Along with Brazil and the host country, it is one of the "heavy-favorites" to win the crown in the multi-sport event, an Olympic title won by Pedro Cea and his fellow Uruguayans in the 1920s (a couple of years prior to winning the Inaugural World Cup).

A Brief History of "Uruguay 30"
by
Gianni Truvianni
The world cup "Uruguay 30" was the first ever organized with only 13 teams participating in a tournament which was by invitation. This in contrast to today's world cups which are by qualification. As for the 13 teams which participated, two were from North America (USA and Mexico), seven were from South America (Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Bolivia, Peru, Chile and Paraguay) while only four were from Europe; given the fact that costs of traveling in those days were very costly.

World Cup USA 94 (Italy VS Ireland)
by
Gianni Truvianni
It was the summer of 1994 and the date was June 18, a day on which Italy would be playing its first world cup game against the Republic of Ireland. I for my part would be not only be watching it but even present at "Giant's Stadium" in the Meadowlands as I had gone through the trouble of getting a ticket.

Memories Of Italy Vs Peru (Spain 82)
by
Gianni Truvianni
Italy had tied with Poland in a match which held little if any real interest for the fans apart from its having been a world cup match. Peru on the other hand had also tied with Cameroon in what was seen as a defeat in Peru at the time given that Peru had in the months previous to the world cup beaten France in Paris by 1, Hungary in Budapest by 2-1 and both Rumania and Borusia Dortmund by the score of 2-0. All of which leading Peruvians to believe that they would easily beat Cameroon yet Cameroon turned out...

Memories Of Italy Vs South Korea (Mexico 86)
by
Gianni Truvianni
Italy Vs South Korea in Mexico 86 was perhaps the most entertaining match I have ever seen Italy play in a world cup or anywhere else for that matter. This match perhaps not being of the highest quality from either team yet it did hold many interesting moments and even violent ones to make the match a true delight to see. Italy being in a position where even a draw sufficed to qualify and probably would have gone through on a loss.

Memories Of Italy VS Australia (Germany 2006)
by
Gianni Truvianni
Italy had qualified in to the second round and would be facing Australia for the right to go on to the quarterfinals. Australia being a team which Italy was expected to defeat easily in spite of their having qualified to the second round in a group with Brazil, Japan and Croatia. Australia, in fact having done a lot in just getting as far as the had in the tournament as most had expected Croatia to qualify to the round of 16.
