Hopefully the other team that plays in this game is a good selection. I like watching games with clashing styles, a South American team, hopefully Brazilian or Argentinean vs an Italian team should be good to watch.

Someone should keep an eye on this and so we know when tickets go on sale. Who knows, me might be able to organize a CP Edmonton Invasion.
You do realize AC has the largest contigent of Italian NT players... even moreso than Juventus and Roma. Conversely, Inter boast a whopping two. Neither are active anymore.

Abbiati, Nesta, Zambrotta, Maldini, Bonera, Ambrosini, Gattuso, Pirlo, Inzaghi, Favalli, and Borriello have all been NT players in the past while. Aside from Favalli, all of them see regular action when not injured.

T5... even Inter's B team (which is what they would send) could beat most South American squads, there's no fun in that. Plus, I'd hate to think my ticket is even somewhat supporting that team.
