That Italian team was packed full of legends.

Pirlo's vision and composure in the first goal is out of this world. I remember I was watching this game with my dad and we were screaming at him to shoot, since he had the angle and was open, yet he dribbles one extra time luring another defender, looks for space and finds Grosso completely unmarked. It's an incredible goal and Pirlo puts all his talent on display.

I'm not italian, but this is still my favourite World Cup game ever!

The pass by Pirlo to set up the goal by Fabio Grosso is just top. Italy conceded 2 goals in the entire tournament- an own goal and Zidane’s penalty. Need I say more.

that Del Piero touch...

Damn this Italian team was scary. Such legends like Del Piero, Pirlo, Grosso, Canavaro, Zambrotta, Giardino, Buffon at goal, this team was just to good.

The germans never lost any match in that stadium before this, unbelievable!!

I loved you Italy, I love you and I shall love you Italy I admire your team, culture, history, civilization, foods, language, people

Back when Italy knew how to choose a Squad and Coach. This was the greatest World Cup I ever watched.

The best looking Italy shirts

That no look pass by Pirlo. That finish by Grosso. That finish by Del Piero. Beautiful Italia🔥💯⚽

i feel that smell of july 2006, beautiful hot evenings of that summer, everything was gorgeous!

The best match I have ever seen.

wish we could turn back time.... to the good old days.

The second goal is one of my world cup faves. The assist from Gilardino was outrageous and the finish was pure Del Piero.

1990 - West Germany win in Italy 2006 - Italy win in Germany Coincidence?

Italy was unstoppable back then

What a brilliant game this was! It’s really a shame how far Italy have declined now. Hopefully they can rebuild for the 2022 World Cup. It’s not a World Cup without the Italians!

18 giugno 2019 ... mi emoziono ancora nel rivedere queste immagini

The two goals from Italy are astonishingly perfect.

so many stars back then both sides pirlo , gattuso , zambrotta , nesta , canavaro , totti ,

one of the greatest games ever

As an American 11 year old child my family just happened to be in Italy for this match. I had only seen a couple of matches of soccer before ever in my life. I’ll never forget after the final whistle blew, running out of our hotel with an Italian flag tied to a wooden spear yelling Italy Italy. I was the first person out there and people started cheering me and Italy from their buildings. Soon a whole crowd emerged and the city wide party started. My sister carried me on her shoulders through the weaving roads and over the canals. Eventually I went off on my own wearing my sisters high heels so I wouldn’t get glass in my feet. I’ll never forget that day for the rest of my life. It was a big part of what made me fall in love with the sport. Really wish we could have been there for the final though

I am german but I have to respect this great team of legends like Buffon, Cannavaro, Pirlo

Palla tagliata, messa fuori, c’è Pirlo, Pirlo, Pirlo ancora Pirlo di tacco… tiro… GOOOOOOOL! GOOOOOOOL! GOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!! GROSSOOOO! GROSSOOOO! GOOOOOOOOOL! GOL DI GROSSO! GOL DI GROSSO! GOL DI GROSSO! MANCA UN MINUTO, MANCA UN MINUTO, GOL DI GROSSO, GOL DI GROSSO, GOL DI GROSSO… INCREDIBILE… INCREDIBILE, SIAMO SOPRA E MANCA UN MINUTO! SIAMO SOPRA E MANCA UN MINUTO!GOL DI GROSSO! Ancora su un’invenzione di Pirlo, molto bravo a trovarlo… grande gol, grandissimo, bellissimo! Nulla da fare per Lehmann! Non la vede nemmeno partire questa palla, ma non ci sarebbe mai arrivato, bellissimo! CAAAAANNAVAROOOOOVIA IL CONTROPIEDE CON TOTTI, DENTRO IL PALLONE PER GILARDINO… GILARDINO LA PUO’ TENERE ANCHE VICINO ALLA BANDIERINA… CERCA L’UNO CONTRO UNO… GILARDINO DENTRO, DEL PIERO, DEL PIEROOOO! GOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!! ALEEEEEEEEEX DEL PIEROOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! CHIUDETE LE VALIGIE, ANDIAMO A BERLINO! ANDIAMO A BERLINO! ANDIAMO A PRENDERCI LA COPPA!

Ha fatto un gol Del Piero… l’aveva sbagliato così nel duemila contro la Francia in finale… qui non l’ha sbagliato, l’ha messo dentro! È FINITA, È FINITAAAAA!!! CHIUDETE LE VALIGIE AMICI, SI VA A BERLINO BEPPE! SI VA A BERLINO BEPPE ANDIAMO A BERLINO! ANDIAMO A BERLINO BEPPE!!!

Italy is my favorite team and country even though I'm not Italian. This is my favorite Italy match against another of my favorite teams, Germany. Back then they had so many superstars. Hope Italy can awake such prowess they once had.

One of the most beautiful incredible powerful memorable displays of soccer ive ever seen. i will ALWAYS remember being a kid and watching those 2 goals back to back in the 118th minute. For me the game today is not as beautiful as it was back then. So many legends

It was probably only time in my life that while watching live game i knew where Gillardino was gonna pass and which corner del piero would finish. I am amazed by a total football. Especially by Del Piero. If u notice he was defending in penalty box and as soon as Cannavaro came out he just blasted all the way from his own box through the entire field. 4 touches were Extraterrestrial: by Cannavaro blitz, Totti pass across the field, Gilardino holding the ball waiting for Del Piero and Del Piero finish. In horse racing they have Trifecta. But here there was Quadrifecta. I never seen anything in world cup history, it looked like a perfect fairtrale. They couldn't lose in Final after this 2nd goal

Pirlo is the best central midfielder ever

The Best SQUADRA AZZURRI Buffon,Peruzzi,Amelia Zaccardo,Grosso,Oddo,Zambrotta,Cannavaro,Nesta,Barzagli,Materazzi Barone,Perotta,Camoranesi,Gattusso,Pirlo,De Rossi Totti,Delpiero,Iaquinta,Inzaghi,Gilardino,Toni. Wooowwww just wooowwww

1:44 That's one of the best celebration I've ever seen. Such passion and joy! ❤️

1:34 Pirlo's elegance is unmatched

As a French I have to say this was one of the greatest world cup winners for sure

intensive,dramatic,tactical,attractive,agressive and so beautiful. in my Opinion, this is the best football match in history ... not only in World Cup.

Even though I am German I could watch that a hundred times. What a great team Italy had back then..

Lucky enough to be in the stadium that evening sitting in the away stand what a moment when Grosso scored and the icing on the cake when Del Piero slotted in the second football magic.

They we'ren't legend then... They were boys with a dream in their heart, an aspiration to be the best. Then they become the Legends.

I was a young child and in the Stadium for the match. I was sad because Germany lost, but first of all i was tired, because it was very late when italy scored. But it was a Great game! Congratulations to italy by the way! Peace 🇮🇹❤️🇩🇪

I love both of them,but most that i lovely is the italy because they are have great player back then and i love how they played the ball. In 2022 they will rise again!! Forza azzurri🇮🇹

One of the best extra - time matches in WC history.

I love Grosso's celebration, just so much passion in it.

this game is not the same without "LEHMANN IS BEATEN!! GROSSO HAS SCORED, AND ITALY ARE HEADING TO BERLIN!!!

This Italian team was just loaded with weapons and legends. They were such an amazing team, so glad they won that year 👍🏻

This Italian team was packed with legends.

when grosso scores you can barely hear italian commentator Fabio Caressa screaming "goaaal, goaaal"

8 years later germany will break brazillians hearts in the semis of 7-1....becomes champion...but 4 years after that eliminated in group stages....love football.

Im german and i lived my whole life in Germany. I am a huge footbal fan since i was a little kid but this first goal from Grosso did really HURT personally as a german😅 Never had my heart broken so badly in football ... What a tournament this was and game !

Probably the highest quality game I've ever watched, pure briliance from start to finish!

man those italian jerseys were awesome the mix of glossy gold and blue is top notch

Italy was always be my favorite European team because of this game. Ahh the memories

This Italy would have destroyed 2018 world champion France.

who came here after Italy reach euro final ?? hopefully they will become champion

football was better these days

I remember thus like yesterday, it was such a good match

This is pure classic. I get emotional by excellent Buffon and Del Piero. A young Gilardino is sharp. After This world cup Italian football climb down from football stage, club and nazionale both. Its only generations, a couple of years and it Will Come back like a bumerang

1:07 ma vaffanculo!!😂😂 u gotta love Italians🇮🇹

Back when Italy had well known solid forwards!

Wow, can't believe it's been 10 years. I still remember watching this match on TV.

This is one of the greatest matches of all time

This Italian team was packed of legends such as Del Piero, Cannavaro, Buffon

And they won the World Cup by defeating France too!

I love this Italy...Memories❤

One of the greatest matches of World cup football history for sure!

This World Cup was peak soccer. Insanely competitive even across the round of 16, elite players everywhere (club soccer in Europe was insanely competitive at the time)

IN 2006 football was much better than today

One of the greatest matches ever played.

That del Piero one touch iconic finish in the end ❤️

Partidazo entre 2 titanes del fútbol, ambas escuadras con 4 copas, estos son los partidos que se tienen que ver en un Mundial

Beautiful italian t-shirt

I hope that Italy can make the same magic happen again!

This is the most beautiful match in Football history.

Just think Buffon was already not so young (29) back then, and He still plays in a top club. Legend

Uuuuff! Zambrotta, Cannavaro, Pirlo, Del Piero, Gatusso, Inzaghi vs Lehmann, Lahm, Ballack, Klose and Schwenstiger ❤❤❤

Damn italy line up... Back when italy was italy

This Match and whole tournament matter of fact was an absolute Classic!

Such a great team! Glad to see Italy back in its glory!

I seriously think italy is probably the best country in the world, and its football is just amazing.Love from UK

2:04 Gila's last pass n ale's shoot...so beautiful wonder when Gila saw del piero running toward him

Brazil won there 4th title after 24 years of the last win Italy won there 4th title after 24 years of the last win Germany won there 4th title after 24 years of the last win

Who came back here after Italy got eliminated in 2 consecutive WC playoffs?

This might be my favourite World Cup game since I began watching football, both teams played wonderfully and it was a joy to watch

when Grosso scored i got goosebumps, and you can tell he got goosebumps, from his celebration he couldn't believe it himself

Germany is a world class team though, it always surrendered against Italy for all major tournaments, only Euro 16 was an exception, though it was forced penalty shootout result.

Watching this matche never get bored even in 2020.. That pirlo's assist, grosso's goal, gilardino's assist, del piero's goal in style... No more italy team like this never!!!

That pass by Pirlo was gorgeous

Germany - Italy 2006/ManUnited - Milan 2007 - the best matches of this century

And today they have the Euro 2020 trophy in their pocket

Masterclass team, italy..

I was 21. seems like yesterday. What a game.

This Italy was like the Brazil of 2002 (Ronaldo, Rivaldo, Cafu, Ronaldinho, Dida) Or the Spain of 2008 and 2010.. Too many stars on one team

Equipazo de Italia, y lo supo manejar el técnico.. Prácticamente fue el mismo equipo desde el 2002. Una generación que se merecía ganar un mundial.

That Italian team was scary

Best team italy 2006.. the MONSTERS!

you let del piero get the ball at that close range, you are basically doomed

The best football game i ever watched in my entire life.

For me, that is the greatest match in world cup.

Who watched after italian european champions 2021 like pleaese forza italia

Soy argentino, pero en este partido fuí italiano... Forza azurra ! 🍕🍷🇮🇹

Cuando el fútbol se jugaba con estilos propios y los jugadores eran hombres, no nombres. A mi entender este fue el último mundial en donde el fútbol brilló con luz propia de cada país respetando su tinte y no jugando todos a lo mismo. Gran partido para recordar. When football was played with its own styles and the players were men, not names. In my opinion this was the last world cup where football shined with its own light of each country respecting its dye and not playing all the same. Great match to remember.

I didn't see any better World Cup game ever since.
