Faces of Victory - Italia '06 in London

Watching Italy win the World Cup Final 2006, to become Champions of the World, and the carnival that followed, in London's Soho - the original home of Italian immigrants in the UK, and today the home of partying. You had to be there to believe it - The West End was like Napoli, and you would have been surprised to see such a party in this part of London even if England had won the World Cup.

I was watching it in Spain. Great gallery. It really brings home the atmosphere and emotions of italians and the italian community celebrating in London. I remember something similar to this when Italy won the previous world cup to this one. I was living in England then. Well done.

I watched at home all alone when I should have been at a party like that. Maybe, in Boston or perhaps Montreal, Canada for the French version. Or even Soho. I was there in Pasadena '94 so enough greed. Glad you had so much fun, even the Police are happy. Impressively fast trnarond time/upload, you obviopusly didn't have too many drinks.
