Pirlo's Pass


The day after and I still have the Pirlo pass in my head.

In my dream-like state, I mistakenly call it a goal--because the Grosso goal is all Pirlo as far as I'm concerned:

"A lovely description of the Pirlo goal. Easily my favourite moment of the tournament. I am not Italian. I am a neutral through and through. A fan of the beautiful game. But Pirlo's was not a creation of mere beauty. It was sublime..."
