Italy's World Cup Group

There you have it, Italy in Group F, drawn with New Zealand, Paraguay and Slovakia. A relatively simple group and one Marcelo Lippi should take the Azzurri through with comfort.

Group F

Italy
New Zealand
Paraguay
Slovakia

They begin the defence of their crown in Capetown at the Greenpoint soccer stadium on June 14th 2010 against Paraguay before traveling to Nelspruit to face New Zealand on 20th June in the newly built Mbombela Stadium and finishing their Group F campaign in Johannesburg at the Ellis Park Stadium against Slovakia on 24th June.

Lets hope World Cup number five is on its way to Rome and Italy retain the trophy deservingly won in Germany.

What are your thoughts on the draw and how do you think Italy will do? Leave a comment below.
