There are several. The Italian team, or "Squadra Azzurra" is studded with well-known players: goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, defense cracks Alessandro Nesta and Fabio Cannavaro, midfield aces Francesco Totti and Andrea Pirlo, and, of course, top striker Alessandro del Piero.

Outlook
:
Ghana's coach Dujkovic will hope his team can shake things up a little during the Cup. While Dujkovic said he realizes Ghana is out of their league against Italy and the Czech Republic, but added that getting out of the preliminary round would be just as good as winning the tournament. Ghana's last international tournament in the African Cup of Nations, however, won't provide much inspiration. Dujkovic's side missed the quarter-finals by a single goal.
