Bocelli is just fantastic
Day 1: Turkey vs Italy
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Classical is not my cup of tea but I could listen to him sing for hours
Considering how many of these intros are garbage... this one is class
He sang at OT for the Beckham/UNICEF game a few years ago, pissing down with rain.
Got a standing ovation.
If the football is as good as that...
The digital effect part of the show must make it odd for those in the stadium.
For a split second, I thought he was going to hold that final note all the way to Sancho Day.
That sent shivers down my spine.
Amazing.
Amazing.
Have to admit it was delivered and finished fantastically. Almost got me a tear there.
I remember that. Also after Leicester won the title.
Would love to watch him live!
CGIed the crap outta this.
It is terrible, I hate it watching on Tv as well.
0-1 ('92 OG Donnarumma)
Awful. Bocelli just about saved this ceremony.
Alright the players are obligated to follow that with a great game now.
Bocelli is amazing. I'm going to see him in London next year.
Better Bocceli than Dua Lipa to be honest.
Jenas on commentary 
now I've got that Friday feeling.
now I've got that Friday feeling.Jenas???
Looking at the stands, seem like a typical Roma game.
Both of these have great anthems
Bocelli, was spring tinglingly great
Glad that was the only bit of the opener I watched
Glad that was the only bit of the opener I watched
Come on Turkey!
Italians are always great on their anthem shame buffon ain't there
We're gonna destroy them!!!!
When I hear this anthem I always remember Michael Schumacher
Mancini looking like a Bond villain.
The Italian anthem coming up. I'm ready.
Italian National Anthem is something special
Mancini and his coaching staff looking sharp
Would love to know what they’re saying
Italy's anthem is the best.
It's a party anthem.
Surprised Jorginho is singing so fluently. Is he not Brazilian?
You can be patriotic as much as you can towards your country but Italy has best fecking anthem in the world. That passion...wow
Mario & Luigi in the crowd 
Why is Turkey the host of this game
Come on Turkey. Never been a fan of italian football (love the country however).
Fun fact: 99.9% of italians only know like the first 3 lines of the anthem
Is the Turkish defensive midfielder any good?
