Yes they are the recommendations of the prosecutor, no it is not FIGC's ruling, and that is due on Sunday.

The Signal Iduna Park, or Westfalenstadion, home of Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund will host the first semifinal. It is the largest stadium in Germany when the terracing of the Südtribüne is used at 81,264, although for non-Bundesliga games the terracing is replaced by seats, giving a capacity tonight of 67,000.

Overall, Italy have never lost to Germany in competitive encounters, winning two and drawing four.
However, Germany have never lost an international match at the Westfalenstadion - one of those must go tonight.

Code:

Head-to-head for competitive games
1962	WCF	Italy 0, West Germany 0
1970	WCF-SF	Italy 4, West Germany 3 (aet)
1978	WCF	Italy 0, West Germany 0
1982	WCF-F	Italy 3, West Germany 1
1988	ECF	West Germany 1, Italy 1
1996	ECF	Germany 0, Italy 0

Italy 2 wins, Germany 0 wins, 4 draws

Borussia Dortmund are saddled with almost $100 mil in debt. They were at one time one of the worlds best clubs. This might be the last big game in this stadium for many years.

redmarkYankees · 07-04-2006, 03:51 PM

I really want Germany to win, but suspect the Italian players have a powerful uniting force driving them on: no Italian court will send World Cup winners to prison for match fixing.

Chisanga · 07-04-2006, 03:58 PM

Morning chaps

What ho?

bababui · 07-04-2006, 03:58 PM

The German National Anthem sounds like the Nazi era 'Deutschland Uber Alles'

Big Willis 16 · 07-04-2006, 03:59 PM

That swipe was what got him suspended? LOL. What a joke.

Hope you are right about Germany. The Germans have their own unifying theme with the Frings suspension that plays into the German national sense of paranoia

It sounds good though

Hi Chisanga..where the hell have you been?

Chisanga · 07-04-2006, 04:01 PM

Germany, Germany above all,
Above all else in the world,
When it always, for protection and defiance,
stands together brotherly.

From the Adige to the Belt,

Above anything in the world. :|

The loss of Nesta more than balances out the loss of Frings

Dougiestyle · 07-04-2006, 04:02 PM

I say Italy 1-0
