On March 12, has run attended an event (sporting speaking) town. Italy beating France in the fourth day of the 6 Nations 2011. Before Saturday's happened only once before, in Grenoble in 1997, with a run that culminated with the entry in the Championship in 2000 and became, therefore, of the 5 Nations Tournament (the four home unions England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland and finally France) at 6 Nations.
The story, I said, it is created. They created the fifteen men in the field who have believed in, defending to the death of a France that the attacks, however, has shown carelessness and insufficient.
Saturday morning the team, the major French sports daily headline " Vacance romaine" (click to see the page). The next day, the front page, was " Total Fiasco" (yes, you can click here to see the page on Sunday Equipe). And in our house? Evidently he was much more important that Pato was playing against Bari if Journal preferred to give the most important title in the Sunday edition (click on Journal to see the page).
But there is a moral victory in Italy? Obviously yes. The moral is that if you come to Rome to make the trip and underestimate the team that you meet, that puts you in the ass. Even if you're France.
The Daily Sport, however, today came out with this cover that gives a lot of satisfaction.
