A relatively old yet small board on the coasts of the Mediterraneum Sea, /ita/ is taking their first steps into the world of organized FIFA crime families interboard soccer competitions. While the board dwellers may not be as active or as numerous as those of other boards, this pack of Wops and Wolves will pack quite a punch, using the tried and tested Italian tactics of Catenaccio, passing the ball to the guy who doesn't have bananas instead of feet, backstabbing their own alliances and overall making a mockery of the sport and anyone trying to have a serious competition.

It helps that they play a really great footie, too, with captain Rita Ciano and center-forward Lupo Lucio helping secure the first exhibition match of the revamped Infinity Cup.

History

Road to Infinity Cup 2018

/ita/ played the very first official Infinity Cup 2018 Exhibition match against /hisparefugio/, also a new board to 8chan AND their own debut into the cup. Despite /ita/'s game plan being significantly different from their official one (and some players not making the final cut in the official roster), they managed to beat their spaniard opponents by a whopping 5-1 score, with goals by Lupo Lucio and Rita Ciano highlighting the great capabilities of the counter-attacking team. /hisparefugio/ went ahead and claimed foul play on the game though due to their players also not adhering to standard formation and the host still struggling with the format of PES 18's spectator options. Nonetheless, the team is ready to take on the cup, with the next matches being scheduled against /2hu/, /wooo/ and /liberty/.

Infinity Cup 2018 Group Stage

/ita/ pooled into group B started it's group stage against /2hu/, with while /2hu/'s Krisame Marisa scoring first in the 6th Minute /ita/ dominated the rest of the match starting with a 18th minute Own Goal by Junko followed by a goal by Lucio to make it 2-1 at half time, from there /ita/ went on an absolute spaghetti fueled goal spree scoring 4 times in the 2ndhalf 3 of which by Lucio and 1 by Rita ro end the game with a devastating 6-2 after /2hu/ got a last minute goal

vs. /2hu/

The inauguration match for /ita/ came plagued with the same problems from the test match: a game plan that wasn't the right one (4-4-2 when it's supposed to be 4-3-1-2), one of their Silver players (Cavaliere Mascarato) not being put in for some odd reasons and its managers absent due to the time schedule. Nonetheless, /ita/ managed to soundly defeat /2hu/ by 6-2, with (erroneously captain) Lupo Lucio scoring a staggering 4 of the 6 goals, allowing him to quickly rise up the Golden Boot ranks.

The game began terribly for /ita/, conceding a goal to Kirisame Marisa and overall being walked all over by the much more densely populated midfield of /2hu/ (who played with a 4-5-1 formation), but thanks to a series of horrible mistakes on the part of /2hu/ defender Yukari, one of which resulted in an own goal, the team managed to have a sudden spike in their morale, with Lupo Lucio practically carrying the team to victory all by himself.

Notably, most goals were achieved thanks to Dante II being able to play as an advanced midfielder despite it not being exactly his own spot, allowing for a rapid sequence of successful passes ( to ).

At the end of the match, sports commentator and local /sp/ daughterfu Wadina Davis had this to say: "HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA...THIS HAS TO BE THE BEST MATCH HAHAHAHA I'VE EVER SEEN.....HAHAHA.(sic)"

Butthurt managers and fans of /2hu/ expressed their distaste at the match results, asking for a rematch due to irregularities coming from /ita/'s formation not adhering to the standard requirements - while ignoring that /ita/ was actually worse off in this condition, having one good player less than theirs and playing out of position at that too - but host 8ChanMania had nothing to state regarding their request. Nonetheless, we /ita/lianons and Lupi fully encourage the /2hu/ team to learn from this match and improve their skills, so that we can have a respectful rematch at the end of the cup.

The Redo

Due to technical difficulties (including Lupa Lucia being given a 0 score as a Goalkeeper in her stats), 8chanmania and the Interboard Football Committee decided to reroll the whole tournament, with the new matchups being against /tg/, /hisparefugio/ and /gts/.

vs. /gts/

Both teams started the game fairly even in terms of both chances and skill set, with /gts/ adopting a midfield-heavy approach which allowed them a few goal opportunities, but ace striker Lupo Lucio managed to seal an early lead in the first half that would continue with Dante II's goal in the second. /gts/ struggled to get their first goal in but eventually took over the momentum of the match, but by that point it was too late.

vs. /tg/

The defensive style of this team destroyed any chance for /ita/: a promising first half with Lupo Lucio being able to score another first blood were short lived, as /tg/ could easily keep the /ita/ forwards out of range from their midfield, despite the apparent empty space left by their odd formation choice. After hitting two posts and having two off target shots, /tg/ finally scored in the second half, which lead to them ultimately making a comeback and preventing Dante II from scoring the equalizer, also thanks to the low morale of the player.

vs. /hisparefugio/

Pretty much an even more humiliating repeat of the former friendly, even though the score may say otherwise. Despite the very early lead, /hisparefugio/ could barely hold themselves together, after two marvelous finishes by Lupo Lucio and, surprisingly, Pulotto, which lead the way for two more goals and ultimately /ita/'s access into the next stage of the cup.

Round of 16: vs. /pone/

A very even match played against a team with a very similar standing to /ita/, despite the scores only changing in the second half, much back and forth went on all throughout the 90'. Aided by a very lucky Samuele Aide (who earned his first Man of the Match award), /ita/ managed to stay afloat one more time and proceed to the Quarter Finals after much tribulations.

Quarter Finals: vs. /liberty/

One of the hardest match-ups in the whole cup, /liberty/'s heavy offense left /ita/'s defenders no quarter, leading to an onslaught of offensive maneuvers that luckily didn't do too much damage. After taking the lead via a combination attack from Falce & Tornello and Lupo Lucio, /ita/ fell under the pinpoint accuracy of none other than Hans-Hermann Hoppe himself. With all the regular 90' and the Extra Time coming to an end, the match was won after a decisive benuldy shootout. Of note the Man of the Match award that our Goalkeeper, Matteo Salvini, was granted after preventing the match-ending goal several times and even saving a benuldy.

Semi Finals: vs. /strek/

An utterly devastating match for the team that would go to lose against /bane/, the midfield-heavy formation of /strek/ had to run quite a lot to get the lead back after the splendid Lupo Lucio opened the scores, so much so that the AI had to use all three substitutions in the match, whereas /ita/ remained relatively energetic. After the 2-2 draw of the regular time, Samuele Aide and Swolecard entertained the public with their skills, and once again a benuldy shootout elected /ita/ as the victor.

THE FINAL: vs. /christian/

The "almost derby" that no one anticipated, the match was marked by a very slow pace, as both team studied their adversary and neither wanted to concede first blood. Despite the great effort by all of /ita/'s members, /christian/'s game plan was just too solid to smash through and even the prolific Lupo Lucio had to go home empty handed (feeted?). Despite the goal from St. Peter coming way into the second half, doom was already spelled for /ita/ once they realized that they could not perform a single successful attempt on target all throughout the first half.

/ita/ would have to settle for a very honorable, albeit anticlimatic, silver medal. Of note the outstanding performance of Lupo Lucio, whom, despite the heavy opposition, managed to be the top scorer and win the Golden Boot, Rita Ciano, whose passes lead to almost the entire scoring sheet of /ita/'s, and Tonio Cartonio, the official representative and commentator, who not only made the board lots of new friends with his bubbly and kind personality, but also possibly just saved us all by sharing free drinks with Jesus Christ, so that's a thing that happened.

E GRIDEREMO ANCORA PER TE, /ITA/
ZUPPA ROMANA

Winter Infinity Cup 2018/2019

/ita/ were once again selected as one of the teams that would go on to participate in the Infinity Cup. While technical problems still hinder their ability to perform on the first day like every other year, they're here to prove that a miracle can happen twice. Maybe even three times. Four, no, absolutely not.

we fucked up

gosh darn it

Road to Infinity Cup 2019

After the catastrophic takedown of Fullchan, the Lupi found themselves in quite a pinch. Lead to julay dot world by one of their own, they regrouped and formed the support team for the new group stage of the Infinity Cup. After two goalless matches against /test/ and /v/ in the most boring group stage yet, the team moves forward to encounter /monster/ as their final opponent. A single goal, the agony or the ecstasy, what'll happen next??? we lose that's what

Official Anthem: Zuppa Romana

An important part of /ita/'s heritage, this song lists off the many delicacies and virtues of the Italian Lupi. No matter where you go or who you may be, a little bit of Italian Amore will rub off on you, in more than a single way.

After the embarrassing defeats under 4-4-2, this forward-leaning counter attack lineup has allowed /ita/ to score several goals when its players' physical fatigue should not have made it possible. A very back-and-forth kind of strategy for a back-and-forth kind of team.
