Nya, wenn er schon die Chancen hat, dann kann er sie auch rein machen, oder? Glaub allerdings auch nicht, dass man die Leistung von Toni an der Pfiffen festmachen kann.

Aber egal, hauptsache die Squadra Azzurra ist bei der WM

Italy boss Marcello Lippi is expected to make 10 changes from the side that beat Slovenia for Wednesday’s game against Moldova.

With qualification for the 2006 World Cup already secured, the tactician will use tomorrow’s match to try out a few of his reserve players.

Palermo left-back Fabio Grosso is set to keep his place in the side, while Alex Del Piero will return after not featuring at the weekend.

Morgan De Sanctis is being tipped to start in goal, behind a rearguard of Cristian Zaccardo, Marco Materazzi, Daniele Bonera and Grosso.

Simone Barone, Daniele De Rossi and Manuele Blasi are set to be confirmed in the engine room.

While Del Piero will aid the attacking duo of Christian Vieri and Udinese striker Vincenzo Iaquinta.

Most eyes will be on Del Piero who many believe is in direct competition with Roma’s Antonio Cassano for a place in the final World Cup squad.

"I am well used to these types of duels," stated the Juventus captain. "Even if I don’t understand why I am always involved.

"There are always people out there who sponsor these things. But I have another idea, why can’t Cassano and I play together?"

Although the Lecce clash is worthless to the team, the No 10 is keen to use it as a stage to demonstrate his ability.

"The fact that we have already won the group is not important, this game matters to me," he continued.

"I last played in the friendly against Ireland and I want to return to the side with a goal, just as I did in the first game against Moldova."

When asked about Italy’s chances of success in Germany next year, Del Piero was remaining upbeat.

"We are a good side, as we have been saying for some time," he stated. "Our squad is made up of players who work hard and rest little."

Freu mich schon auf das Spiel, wird interessant wie die Sache funktioniert.

Come on Ale.

Morgen musst du es allen Kritikern und auch Lippi zeigen, dass man einen Del Piero während einer WM nicht zu Hause lassen kann. Ich hoffe ihm gelingt ein tolles Spiel und er kann im Großen und Ganzen das Spiel leiten und lenken. Klar wäre ein Tor morgen schon einiges wert, doch ein paar tödliche Pässe für Vieri und Iaquinta wären mir z.B. viel lieber und wohl auch effektiver für das ganz Team.

Ich verstehe aber nicht ganz was alle mit Cassano wollen, der spielt derzeit absolute Scheisse und ist Meilenweit entfernt von einem WM Ticket. Da haben mMn Miccoli, Di Vaio oder Bonazzoli bessere Chance als die Diva Cassano. Wenn Lippi einen Del PIero wirklich zu Hause läßt, dann darf aber auf keinen Fall ein Vieri mit genommen werden. Derzeit würde ich diese 6 Stürmer mit nehmen:

TOTTI, DEL PIERO, TONI, IAQUINTA, GILARDINO und (für manche vielleicht überraschend DI NATALE, doch der spielt bis dato ein Klasse Saison.

Lässiger Kader. Auf De Rossi und Ale freu ich mich, hoffentlich gelingt den beiden was.. Vieri wünsch ich endlich mal wieder einen Torerfolg, auf Bonera bin ich relativ neugierig.

Tippe auf einen Sieg der azzurri - 2:0 (Ale, Vieri)

[MILANISTA]

Coole Aufstellung, ich hoffe da geht was!

[Gast nun c'è problema]

[Pinturicchio]

Laut Lippi spielte Del Piero ein gutes Match, hoffe das war schon ein Großteil seines WM Tickets. Nach den Pflichtspielen müsste Lippi seinen Kader eigentlich schon im Großen und Ganzen beisamen haben, bis halt auf ein paar Spieler. Bin der Meinung, das man nicht den Großteil des Kaders nur durch Freudnschaftsspiele bilden kann, also waren die Quali Spiele sicherlich sehr wichtig.

Del Piero eindeutig der beste Mann am Platz!

2006 World Cup qualifier - 12/10/05 (19.30) 

Italy 2 - 1 Moldova

Vieri 71 (I), Gatcan 76 (M), Gilardino 85 (I)

Stadio Via del Mare, Lecce

Christian Vieri and Alberto Gilardino broke their goal droughts against Moldova in Italy's final World Cup qualifier, but Alessandro Del Piero was man of the match.

Italy were already qualified for the World Cup when they completed their Group Five campaign by welcoming Moldova to the Stadio Via del Mare in Lecce.

With this in mind, Marcello Lippi fielded an experimental side with 10 changes from the line-up that beat Slovenia 1-0 last week. Fabio Grosso was the only man to maintain his place, as Vincenzo Iaquinta, Christian Vieri and Alessandro Del Piero played in a trident attack.

The Azzurri had a bright start and Simone Barone cut back a cross for Vieri to slide on to the ball, but he turned wide under pressure from close marking. The Milan centre-forward also nodded a Cristian Zaccardo cross well over.

Iaquinta's cross for Vieri was intercepted at the last moment by Pascenco's fingertips, then the former Inter forward failed to make contact on Grosso's centre by inches.

Italy - and Vieri - thought the deadlock had been broken when Del Piero's free kick was palmed on to the crossbar and ricocheted into the path of Vieri, but the goal was disallowed for a debatable offside flag. Vieri's goal drought continues and he was reduced to hysterical laughter by this latest piece of misfortune.

Morgan De Sanctis was made to work hard in order to keep Italy from going behind, as Covalciuc got round Grosso and his angled drive was pushed away with some difficulty.

Vieri had another chance on Barone's assist only to be closed down, then Pascenco flew to palm a stunning Daniele De Rossi strike out of the top corner from 20 metres.

A lob from the very active Del Piero was off target and in first half stoppages Pascenco spread his body to stop Iaquinta taking full advantage of a defensive error.

Manuele Blasi replaced Daniele Bonera for the second half, but the Juve man took up a midfield position rather than the defensive role he has been experimenting at club level in recent weeks.

Vieri held up the ball for Iaquinta's low half-volley that was smothered by the goalkeeper, while De Sanctis tipped a Rogaciov effort round the post.

On the hour mark there was a great chance, as De Rossi's chipped pass beat the defence to reach Del Piero, but his lob was charged down by some brave goalkeeping. The Juventus star was booked for his clash with Pascenco and the aftermath of that move, as he went to see how his opponent was and the referee - and Moldovan players - assumed he was trying to drag him up from the ground.

Gianluca Zambrotta came on for Grosso, but it took a crucial De Rossi intervention to stop Boret turning in from the edge of the box. Lippi's final substitution saw Alberto Gilardino join his Milan teammate Vieri and Del Piero, as Iaquinta made way.

Vieri finally broke through, though much of the credit goes to Del Piero. The Juve man fought past two challenges on the left flank and his low cross beat the goalkeeper before reaching Vieri for a tap-in from five yards. Tellingly considering his current form, the ex-Inter striker nearly failed to net such an easy chance, as he needed two touches to get it under control.

However, the Azzurri seemed to relax after that and Moldova equalised within five minutes. Boret held up a Covalciuc cross for a fine angled volley from Gatcan that beat De Sanctis at the far corner.

Del Piero was by far Italy's best player on the night and cut back for De Rossi's sliding finish that was inches wide of the upright.

Gilardino was guilty of the worst miss of the night, as his free header on Vieri's cross was horribly wide with only the goalkeeper to beat. He made up for it moments later, however, as the Milan man restored Italy's lead. Gila controlled a deflected Aimo Diana pass and drilled it into the far corner with the outside of his right foot.

Del Piero was churning out assists for his team-mates and Barone failed to make the most of another inspired pass. Not everyone appreciated Del Piero's performance, as after he skipped past four challenges at the by-line, Lascencov started a brief scuffle.
