How they qualified Does it really matter? They are there. They are always there. OK then, they strolled their group finishing six points clear of Denmark in second place. World Cup high England can never forget 1966, but most Italians probably can’t even name the four, yes four, times they have won the World Cup. The 2006 victory stands out as a triumph against the odds played out to a backdrop of scandal and controversy. World Cup low Defeat on penalties to Argentina on home soil in the 1990 semi-final. Familiar faces Emanuele Giaccherini (Sunderland), Pablo Osvaldo (Southampton), Davide Santon (Newcastle United). The manager Cesare Prandelli has rejected the stereotypes and turned into a stylish attacking side. He has held on to at least one Italian tradition however: there will not be a better-groomed manager at this World Cup. How in danger is he? 7/10. Prandelli is hugely popular but Italy always expects. Most likely to light up Brazil ... There are younger legs and livelier talents in this squad but for one last time at a major tournament just sit back and savour each and every perfectly-placed pass from Andrea Pirlo. Most likely to be sent home in disgrace ... Mario Balotelli. Why? Lets not ruin the surprise. Title odds: 20/1 The stereotype is ... Solid defence, counter attack, slow starters, tournament know-how, lavish gestures, long hair. The reality is ... Free (ish) flowing attacking football, dodgy defence, lavish gestures, long hair. What they're known for La Dolce Vita 30 per cent Pasta 18 per cent Their hair 12 per cent Their mothers 40 per cent How Brazilian are they? No, they’re not Brazil. They’re Italy. How Google translates the national anthem We were for centuries downtrodden and derided, we are not one people, we are divided. How long does it last? One minute 40 seconds of chest-pumping national pride. Note to any budding young countries out there: this is how you do a national anthem. How to dress like their fans It’s almost impossible for an outsider to look like an Italian man or woman so instead try and behave like them, which basically involves overreacting to every single incident waving your hands in the air and looking to the heavens in disgust. Commentator's go-to stat Only Brazil (93) and Germany (99) have played more games in World Cup finals than Italy (83). The Italians have drawn more games than anyone else (21).

晋级之路 这个问题真的有意义吗？世界杯一直都有他们的身影。事实上，在最后一轮预选赛中，意大利队以6分的优势淘汰位于小组第二的丹麦，成功晋级巴西世界杯。 世界杯高光时刻 英国人或许永远不会忘记1966年他们作为东道主首次取得世界杯冠军的荣耀。然而大多数意大利人可能甚至都说不清楚他们4次（是的，总共4次）获得世界杯冠军的具体时间。其中，2006年在国内裁判门丑闻的阴影下，意大利国家足球队排除万难夺得世界杯冠军，这一胜利尤为激动人心。 世界杯低谷时刻 在1990年世界杯半决赛中，意大利队在主场与阿根廷队的点球大战中败下阵来，未能进入决赛。 知名球员 埃曼努埃尔.贾凯里尼（桑德兰足球俱乐部），巴勃罗•奥斯瓦尔多（南安普顿足球俱乐部），大卫•桑顿（纽卡斯尔联足球俱乐部） 主帅 切萨雷•普兰德利挂帅后，一改意大利队传统的防守反击战术，“蓝色军团”的风格让人眼前一亮。不过，他保持了意大利队的至少一个传统：在世界杯赛场上，没有比他更有风度的教练了。 他的下课几率 7/10. 普兰德利确实非常受欢迎，但意大利人的期待是永无止境的。 本次世界杯最可能大放异彩的球员 在这支队伍中永远不乏年轻、充满活力的足球天才。但是对于最后一次参加重大比赛的安德烈亚•皮尔洛，届时他每一次完美精准的传球将成为本场比赛最大的看点。 本次世界杯最可能不光彩地被遣返回国的球员 马里奥•巴洛特利。为什么？我们还是拭目以待吧。 夺冠几率：20/1 固有印象 坚固的防守反攻，慢热型，娴熟的比赛技能，丰富的手势，一头长发。 球队实情 自由随意的进攻，狡猾的防守，丰富的手势，一头长发。 意大利知名之处 《甜蜜生活》(La Dolce Vita) 30% 意大利面 18% 意大利人的头发 12% 他们的妈妈 40% 他们有多巴西范？ 不，他们是十足的意大利范。 谷歌翻译的意大利国歌 遭凌夷受嘲讥，至今已数世纪， 只因为久分裂，长涣散不团结。 国歌时长 在1分40秒的歌声中，意大利人边唱边拍打胸脯，充满了强烈的民族自豪感。给所有正在发展的年轻国家的建议：你们就应该像这样唱国歌 如何装扮成意大利队球迷 外国人几乎不可能化妆成意大利人的样子，那么就只能试着模仿他们的行为，主要包括对每一件事都要做出过度的反应，具体表现为：在空中使劲挥手，然后表情恶心地望着天空。 评论员常用的解说词 在世界杯决赛中，只有巴西（93次）和德国（99次）的比赛次数超过意大利（83次），而且意大利队的平局次数（21次）是最多的。
