Italy World Cup exit 'darkest day': Press


ROME: The team of defending champions Italy which crashed out in the first round of the World Cup produced the worst performance of any Italian lineup in the history of the competition, the country's press said on Friday.
"It's total darkness," said La Gazzetta dello Sport. "The worst Italy we have ever seen go out."

Italy were eliminated after a 3-2 defeat by minnows Slovakia in Johannesburg left coach Marcello Lippi's side bottom of their first-round group with a paltry two points.
