00:30So, away we go then, as Russia, in their all-white strip, kick off, attacking the goal to our right, the Italians, of course, in their famous blue jerseys and white shorts, the group of death came out, and his name was announced over the public address system.
00:49Mnopko, so often he'll be the last line of defence, but then we'll take the opportunity to come forward, but not now, this is Kasiragi!
01:00A chilling finish, and a great start for the Italians, just four minutes gone, some really careless defending then by Russia, and they've been fully punished by Kasiragi.
01:17Yaluigi Kasiragi, his ninth goal for his country, and just look at the rope he had here, some dreadful work by the Russians, and the shot was too good for Chertasov.
01:30Illivio, who supplied the pass then, and Kasiragi, with a lethal strike, and no chance there for Chertasov, who was clearly deceived.
01:40Karpin, now Karpin, now Karpin, Apolloni, Di Matteo, who is dipping that away, carelessly, could be a shooting chance here, not too far wide either, Vokar Ivanov.
01:47A way to go open that for him then.
01:48Igor Kolivanov, from the Italian club Fogger.
01:52De Mateo, que está indo para o outro lado, com a chance de ir para o outro lado, de Kolivanov.
02:04A way to go, open that for him then.
02:09Igor Kolivanov, do Italian club Fogger.
02:15Não tem coisa para ele, mas ele escolheu de ir para o outro lado.
02:18Ele foi muito bem na seleção.
02:22I think this free-kick goes for Strasbourg in France, Mastelroi, who is now the number 10.
02:38Approaching the halfway stage in the first half, Anokko, sliding it through to Karpine, Karpine with a shot that's charged down by Apolome, but here's the chance, Simbolo!
02:491-1!
02:52Well, this time it was the Italians who looked ragged defensively, and Simbolo has taken full advantage.
03:05That slide will pass there from Anokko, Karpine confronted by Apolome, but it falls there for Simbolo, and he's slotted it in.
03:14Anokko was the architect here.
03:211-2!
03:221-2!
03:231-2!
03:241-2!
03:251-2!
03:261-2!
03:271-2!
03:281-2!
03:29And as he was closed down by Peruzzi, he still managed to guide it in.
03:331-3!
03:342-2!
03:351-2!
03:361-2!
03:371-2!
03:381-2!
03:391-2!
03:40Cimbala, com o Parruzzi no seu próximo posto.
03:49Italy 1-1...
03:50Muito bem, então, para o Gio Piero.
03:53Moldeja, com o Zola.
03:58Livio, também, com o Zola.
04:01Italy's leading scorer do qualifiers.
04:06Ostervoi.
04:10E aqui é Ostervoi.
04:25E aqui está o Zola.
04:28A generalidade do pre-kix não são tão impressionante.
04:35Parece que eles estão lendo aqui para Kolivarov.
04:38Ivanov, aqui ele está agora, oh dear
04:43Os caros sejam bem, certamente os italianos são, em Pendergree alone
04:52O Travzer, está no final, ele está no final
04:56Ele está no final, ele está no final, ele está no final, ele está no final
05:00Simbola
05:08E agora Kocchioskis, good move in again for the Russians, Kocchioskis for the short
05:12Well, he enjoyed his last appearance at Anfield, but he played here with Everton, he scored twice
05:19It was too easily red though, by the Italians, off goes Zola now, he's got Livio to his right
05:25And Casaraghi here, linking up now with Del Piero
05:28Del Piero's shot, didn't really get hold of it though
05:32He lifted it from the left, he prefers him out on that wide roll
05:36Panopko to Kapin
05:39The end of the first half, hardly any stoppage time at all, that is not there by Leslie Mottram
05:49Casaraghi with the early goal for the Italians
05:51But wiped out by Simbola's reply to give us a halftime score of Italy 1, Russia 1
05:57So the Italians start the second half, kicking from left to right, and they've put on Roberto Donatoni
06:07In place of Del Piero, switch two made by the Russians
06:12They brought on Yanofsky, in place of Bushmanov, let's take over that roll from him
06:21Promising starter then for the Italians
06:27And the flick just going wide
06:30From Casaraghi, again the marking was none too tight at all
06:34Mussi with the cross in there, and nobody picked up Casaraghi
06:38And the Russians seem to have their attention still back in the dressing room
06:43Mussi's cross flicked in by Casaraghi
06:46And Cecezov, here is Albertini, and the shot is through
06:51Cecezov couldn't hold it
06:53In came Apolloni, and my, that was an escape then for the Russians
06:58The sheer venom on the shot from Albertini
07:02It was too hot for Cecezov to handle
07:07But he crash traded to Porizzi, who's known as the Wild Boar
07:11One of the many nicknames he's had down the years
07:15Careless that from Mussi
07:20And here he is again, on for D'Olivio
07:25Now Zola, just stick through
07:28And the shot has got in from Casaraghi
07:31To one
07:33And it's that man, Pierluigi Casaraghi, in the right place again
07:38Some glorious link-up play deck with Zola
07:41So much to admire about the awareness of Zola
07:48And then the finishing of Casaraghi
07:50A real predator in the 18-yard box
07:53Great little pass through then from Zola
07:56And a spanking drive from Casaraghi
07:58Right into the corner
08:00So aware of what's going on around it then Zola
08:06Cic Casaraghi
08:07And Cecezov
08:09With no chance of getting down to it
08:12And so many talented players
08:18Carrying a potential threat to the Italians
08:21And this one in particular, Sipbola
08:24Easing away from Mussi
08:28And the shot from Mostovoy
08:30Terrific effort there
08:34Oh how frustrating from Mostovoy
08:39And the Russians very very close to another equaliser
08:44So Nimble worked out the flank here from Cibbola
08:48And span away then off course to Kota
08:51And Mostovoy was very close
08:53The eventless man
08:58He's here who normally operates down the right side
09:05So he'll be
09:09Sergei Kiryakov who plays for Karlsruhe in Germany
09:12The beaten German Cup finalists
09:15A very dangerous player this fellow
09:18Now to Trattor
09:21Pidiakov to Trattor again
09:23Jolly handled
09:25That was Kolivanov
09:36Kolivanov who has been cautioned already
09:39Here's Zola away from Anupku
09:44Wonderful skill by Zola
09:46And all credit there
09:51To the Russian keeper for the save
09:54Did really well to spread himself
09:59Zola was through away from Anupku
10:01Accelerating clear
10:02But just very dangerous shot from this kind of distance
10:07This kind of distance
10:08But he doesn't seem to be featuring at the moment in the frame
10:10Don Pawelski just on as a substitute back at the wall there
10:14Now what Zola
10:18I wonder what Zola might have up his sleeve here
10:21He has scored some brilliant free kicks in his time
10:24And he's clearly fired up for this game
10:28The man of the moment for the Italians
10:31Here is Zola
10:35Zola shots
10:38A rueful smile
10:39It was very very near
10:45Curled just over the top
10:47Well the keeper
10:52I'm sure Vettis
10:53In the Champions League final
10:55That led to the successful penalty
10:57You are
10:58Kassaragi going off
10:59And Mervanelli
11:00As impressed as anyone
11:02By Kassaragi's contribution this afternoon
11:04You don't find many more enthusiastic players than this fellow
11:08I wonder if he's got the director
11:13Who is celebrating if he scores
11:15I don't think he'll give a hoot
11:19Mostavoy
11:21It was cleverly done there
11:23It was a rash challenge by Ravinelli
11:25Kiniakoff
11:30Ravinelli up right back now
11:31Kiniakoff
11:36It's more worrying
11:37For the Italian defence to do maybe
11:39Kiniakoff
11:43Took a deflection then
11:44Up comes Peruzzi
11:46And fisting it away very powerfully
11:50Musi on the break
11:55Krasaragi
11:58Mostavoy
12:00Dobroposki
12:05Yeah touch of crap now
12:07Great little pass from it
12:10Ravinelli couldn't control it
12:12Deep into stoppage time
12:14The chance of
12:21Patruzzi
12:22Yeah
12:23Patruzzi rather
12:26Maldini
12:27On for Ravinelli
12:28On for Ravinelli
12:37Pruzzi
12:38On a counter-attack for the Italian
12:40Swizzola
12:41And now Ravinelli
12:42He can't finish it here
12:44He's controlling him down
12:46It will be a corner though
12:48To his relief
12:49But he could have saddled it then
12:53He's so lethal on his left foot
12:54But his first touch wasn't a good one
12:57The combination play
12:59Is certainly incisive from the Italians
13:04But control is certainly sloppy from Ravinelli
