It was a good thing Italy won that world cup after all the bad luck they had before that tournament. They would lose on penalties, they would have goal against in the last minute (vs France, 2000), and they would lose because of referee (vs South Korea, 2002). Italy was so good in those years I'm glad they at least got something out of it. Of course, I have a 1998 Italy shirt and I like the country so all is well.
