Wednesday, 05 July 2006 |
 Jurgen Klinsmann's World Cup dream was destroyed by two Italy goals at the end of extra-time as Fabio Grosso and Alessandro Del Piero struck to secure a place in the final with a 2-0 win.
Klinsmann's Germany team seemed to be an unstoppable force, heading for Sunday's (Monday morning AET) showpiece in Berlin but, with the semi-final less than two minutes away from a penalty shoot-out, Grosso fired Italy into the lead in the 119th minute.

  KAISERSLAUTERN, Germany Italy, rarely able to show its class against a tireless and determined Australian side, inched through into the World Cup quarterfinals with a last- minute penalty goal.
Francesco Totti, Italy's savior on many past occasions but only a substitute in this game, blasted an unstoppable penalty into the top left corner to give Italy a 1-0 victory. Time expired before the ball could be put back into play. Gianluigi Buffon, the Italian goalkeeper, who once again played a nearly perfect match, could not even bring himself to look, but Totti's concentration and execution were exemplary. |

Toni finally ended his goalscoring drought on German soil with two second-half goals to crush the hopes of an entire nation. Gianluca Zambrotta had opened the scoring in the sixth minute before last season's top Serie A scorer stole the limelight. Toni headed the Azzurri's second shortly before the hour mark before capping a wonderful evening for Marcello Lippi's men shortly after. |

10,000 to Park Road Milton - 17,000 to Federation Square - 20,000 to Lygon Street "FORZA Italia" is emblazoned across the blue soccer scarf on display at the front of Lygon Street's Cafe Notturno.

A dazzle of Australian green and gold is punctuated with flags bearing Italy's green, white and red colours, a clear indication that loyalties are divided in the heart of Melbourne's Italian district ahead of Tuesday morning's World Cup showdown. |
