I never said they defended poorly, they defended great.  No question 
about that.  Perfect?  No way.  You seem to be saying that these 
arbitrary solar events known as referee's decisions are proof of great 
defending.  I think that's ridiculous.

But you were right about my description of Italy "reluctantly 
accepting", that was inaccurate exaggeration.  As is a description of 
their defending as "perfect".
