Let's loose the dragons!

This is one of the things I like the most in rugby!

You can literally seat side by side with other team's supporter and there are not any problem at all.

Moreover there are several really funny people seeing the match!

This guy was seated near us and it was dressed up as a dragon with the wales shirt!

This is the first shot of these strange dresses they wore!

This was shot with the Nikon AF-D 28-105 3.5-4-5 (IIRC they've stolen the lens so maybe I'm getting the wrong f numbers!) a fabolous lens (and it can be considered cheap too!)

Marcato's 3 points!

I clearly remember this shot... how could I forgot it!

Italy was playing a good game but not getting any try out ouf our plays (as usual I should say!). Welsh actions grant us a kick on the 40 meters line and near the touch line (12 meter in the field I would say)... We all believed it would have used the kick to move the game nearer the tryzone...

Andrea Marcato and some other Italian players are discussing...

Marcato raise his hand and point to the goal... I'll try to go for three points? it's a 46 meter long kick with a wild angle!!

This shot is the moment of the kick...

2 seconds later all the stadium was cheering (Welsh too!) for the really good kick...

I took the shot with the Sigma 70-300 and I set it to 70 in order to get an idea of the relative positions of Marcato and of the goal.
