Fresh from a
vital 2-1 victory over Roy Hodgson's England in their World Cup Group D
opener, Italy also claim to have come out on top in the WAGs stakes in
Manaus as well.
A
Daniel Sturridge strike was not enough for England on the pitch as
Italy prevailed thanks to goals from Claudio Marchisio and Mario
Balotelli.
And
Italian newspaper Gazzetta Dello Sport believe that the Italian women
on display in Brazil were also far superior to their English
counterparts.

In an article headlined 'WAGs absent -
Italy triumphs in the battle of the wives', the newspaper cited Mario
Balotelli's fiancee Fanny Neguesha and Alberto Aquilani's partner
Michela Quattrochiocche as prime examples of Italian superiority.
Published yesterday before the match, the article in Gazzetta called the Italian WAGs
‘beautiful’ and finished by saying: ‘Let’s just say the Italians win 2-0
against the English. Now it’s down to the husbands.’
England
can call upon Alex Gerrard, wife of captain Steven, Christine Bleakley,
fiancee to Frank Lampard, and Coleen Rooney as three of their headline
WAGs.
The article also described how the partners of Balotelli, Claudio Marchisio, Aquilani and Italian boss Cesare Prandelli
would support the Azzurri at last night's match.
Marchisio’s
wife Roberta, a former Italian tennis player, attended with their
children, and ex-Liverpool midfielder Aquilani’s partner Quattrociocche
was also present.
Other
famous WAGs in the Italy camp include Daniele de Rossi's glamorous
girlfriend Sarah Felberbaum and Thiago Motta's elegant wife Francisca.

Gianluigi
Buffon, who was forced to miss last night's match with an injured
ankle, is currently in the throes of a divorce from his wife, Czech
supermodel Alena Seredova.
Equally
miserable is playmaker Andrea Pirlo who was forced to seek solace with
the Italy squad priest, Don Massimiliano Gabricci, after being dumped by
his wife Deborah Roversi, following an alleged liaison with blonde
Valentina Baldini, who he met at his golf club.
But
while many of the Italian WAGs could be spotted in the stands, none of
the England team is thought to have brought their partners to Brazil,
although Coleen Rooney is on her way.
