They did make sure South Korea stayed in, at Italy's expense.
Italy aren't choke artists, football competitions just don't come around very often and they're hard to win. They got to the European Championships final in 2000 and the same team could have won the WC in 2002 if it wasn't for the terrible decisions.
The refs also screwed Spain against South Korea.
