Title: World Cup 2018

Let's get started then by discussing Italy being OUT for the first time in 60 years, 60 tears !

Watched that yesterday.  Even though I have Italian heritage, I was rooting for Sweden.  Based purely on the notion that, of the two, England has the better chance of beating them if they end up meeting them in Russia.
