Wow.  This quote is pretty GoT-esque:

Even less bothered was the head of the Austrian delegation, Hans Tschak, who made these extraordinary comments: "Naturally today's game was played tactically. But if 10,000 'sons of the desert' here in the stadium want to trigger a scandal because of this it just goes to show that they have too few schools. Some sheikh comes out of an oasis, is allowed to get a sniff of World Cup air after 300 years and thinks he's entitled to open his gob."

I haven't liked Italy since the Tab Ramos incident.  Also lol'ed so hard when Baggio baggio'd it over the crossbar in PK's.
