If any player, official or spectator behaving in a discriminatory or contemptuous manner can be attributed to a certain team, three points will automatically be deducted from that team for the first offence. In the case of a second offence, six points will be deducted, and after a further offence, the team will be relegated. In the case of matches played without points being awarded, the team in question will be disqualified.

Italy won it fair and square. No need to start conspiracy rumours.

Of course it would be too big, but you shouldnt forget that racism is huge in Italian football and Italy anyway, maybe the Fifa should "educate" them.
Sorry but that has got to be the dumbest nickname for a team ever. Reason alone not to like them. That and the feact that their countrymen are the whinyest bunch of fans to grace the Earth. "The Ref and the Italian Dive queens screwed us boo-hoo" /end of rant
