After beating Germany, Cesare Prandelli had a beer at his press conference

The day after beating Germany 2-1 to advance to a Euro 2012 final against Spain, Italy manager Cesare Prandelli celebrated his team's success by enjoying a beer at his press conference with a man wearing a Super Mario shirt.

One would hope that this is more Prandelli's way of showing his superiority over the land of Oktoberfest and not a sign of letting down his guard before the job is done. But if anyone deserves a toast today, it's Prandelli's own Super Mario Balotelli. Who, incidentally does not drink alcohol.
