Mario Balotelli, wrote another chapter in his incredible career, and he fired to Italy in the final of the UEFA EURO 2012 with a burst of two goals against Germany in Warsaw, winning the match 2-1. The man from Manchester City climbed to 20 minutes of power at home of Antonio Cassano cross to put the bottom on the front.
Then crashed unstoppable shot past Manuel Neuer, double the lead of Italy and the joint-top of the table Golden Boot Last time Mesut Ozil penalty was not enough to prevent Germany suffered its first loss in a competitive game since their 2010 FIFA World Cup ™ semi-final loss to Spain two years ago.
In fact it was his third semifinal of the loss in his last four tournaments, one of which, in the 2006 FIFA World Cup was against tonight's opponents, who are never lost to Germany in a competitive match, and now face Spain in Kiev on Sunday.
Pirlo poetry
Germany had started the match as favorites, especially thanks to his world record run of 15 straight wins. After seeing how difficult it had found England to submit to Andrea Pirlo, the plan being to do with it much better.
By contrast, was worse. Sitting deep in the midfield line, Pirlo Germany allowed the time to pick back defender Giorgio Chiellini, with a brilliant pass to the sideline. From there, everything went downhill quickly for Joachim Low's team.
Chiellini nudged the ball to Cassano, who turned Mats Hummels past with minimal effort. Balotelli immediately got himself some space behind Holger Badstuber and when the cross came to power the ball from six yards.
If that was efficient in its execution, second Balotelli was brutal. Moving from inside his own half, Riccardo Montolivo could hardly believe the room I was given. Twice he looked up to see if anything was on.
Balotelli bags of doublet
On the second occasion saw Balotelli making his career, building on Philipp Lahm failed to maintain the offside line. Balotelli took some time to get into a firing position. However, as the ball sat up nicely, which crashed the past Manuel Neuer.
Germany goalkeeper had set a stop. In the end, there was nothing I could do, but stands a weak hand and fall to the ground, helpless to prevent his goal of being raped a second time. Balotelli was booked for removing his shirt while trying to celebrate with a grumpy attitude.
I could not keep up and even broke into a grin when he was engulfed by ecstatic teammates. It was a performance that put the efforts of English - and Ireland is for that matter - in a kind of perspective.
Germany, although a shade of normal. Twice in the early stages Gianluigi Buffon had lost the ball near his own line, but could not take advantage. Sami Khedira did launch a volley towards goal among key Balotelli, but this time, Buffon was able to make the save.
Lower left wanting
Under took decisive action in the interval, the introduction of Miroslav Klose and Mario Gomez Reus Framework and Lukas Podolski, whose contribution can not be hesitant to have impressed watching Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger. The change brought some much needed life into the German ranks.
However, their efforts to transport themselves back in the competition were thwarted repeatedly. Lahm could not hit the target after running Toni Kroos' return pass before Buffon pushed Reus free kick against his own bar and to safety. A disappointing Ozil went to the bottom line, but with very little space, Khedira needed to react much faster than he did to the near post-cut-back.
Balotelli Out with cramps meant that he was denied the opportunity to become the first player to score a point and final hat-trick from Gerd Müller did in 1976. His replacement, Antonio Di Natale, who have wrapped up victory when he found himself in acres of space inside the box but dragged his effort all the bat, much to the frustration Balotelli.
Federico Balzaretti handball in the final minute brought some nerves for Italy and Ozil fired home from the place. But Prandelli men were able to reach the end of the game and celebrate their triumph.
