As for the game I guess Italy sorta deserved it, because of Buffon and Del pierrio, the only two Italian play I respect. Sorry about Double post. Didn't see. |

The reality is that Germans and Frenchs believed to be so superior and cool to the "italian parasites": well the World Cup is in the hands of parasites now... LOL. Germans and Frenchs always have lots of pizza and spaghetti to comfort themselves... Bye bye from Italy |

mixed feelings
That could have been Zidane's great retirement. What a pity (as a veteran he should know how to control his temper)
Congratulations to Italy for winning the Cup. After the incidents in the italian league this must be very nice equalizer (soccer spirit vice). btw. ccardoso, I don't know what you try to do here. But I want to assure you, that there wasn't such an overall sentiment against Italy (here in germany). The incident with Frings and some yellow press here sure did not help to raise the feelings for Italy. But in general I'ld say there was and is respect for Italy. (to refer to your rant... to overly brag with the win, and to goof on others, could result in a bad image for you )

Yea, Zidane should know how to control his temper. I mean i'm sure he has heard many bad things through his career, so he should how to deal with it. It's a pity to end a career with a red card and he didn't even get to go up to get a medal. Anyways it was good game and congratulations to Italy.

Zidanity?! Someone has played too much mortal kombat. But it's wity.
Well, another World Cup has reacher it's end. The final was more exciting than I was anticipating. Of course that that french dive must rank the top 5, not even Cristiano Ronaldo would have done better. Italy and Portugal aren't the only ones to dive... (I just came up with this "joke" theory: Italy and Portugal (Greece probably as well) dive because they're countries with lots of beaches and hot summer, so they "practice" a lot. ) But since most France's players are from ex-french colonies from Africa, and Africa also has lots of beaches, they might be learning. And who says France says England and other countries...) Both teams ran, ran, ran, ran... and ran. Italy's resisntance was gone by overtime, only France had the "legs" to keep on ppressing Italy. Both teams had a tremendous ball control, it was delightful to see. Italy's defence was solid as a rock, and the french attack was sometimes demolishing. Sure, ther was this hard fould here and there, but the nerves of playing a final can do that (the Zidane incident doesn't count, though). At the end, as someone said, it was a lottery. Italy won its 4th title. When the World Cup started, I believed Italy would never get the title, France and Portugal, wouldn't even get passed the qualifying stage, Brazil or Argentina would win, and Spain would at least go to the semi-finals. At the end, the tables were turned upside down, it was most unexpected. This is why I love football. I'll be waiting for the World Cup 2010. (But first I have the Euro 2008 to watch, yepee! )

Actually Zidane always had a short temper...in 1998 he got a red card for much the same thing...he stomped on a Saudi Arabia opponent and got sent off for that too...well all I have to say is that when people say use your head, DON'T TAKE IT LITERALLY!
Man...stupid refs...couldn't they have waited till AFTER the game to bitch about Zidane's conduct...man if I was that one ref, I woulda kept my mouth shut rather than rat on Zidane about it...it'd be nice if the replay was saved and nothing was called, and everyone knew...it'd be funnier still if France won the cup...then Mattarazzi would be a complete laughingstock. But now he put that one bad blotch on Zidane's amazing career...goddammit if only for prolonged youth...well let's hope Zidane returns to the soccer scene and pulls a Klinsmann or something...cuz I don't think the world can get enough of the guy if he's in the ranks of Pele and Maradona... 2010 world cup should be fun stuff...let's hope we see Zizou take part in some other way!

There's always going to be intimidation in ANY sport competition. It's up to the person being intimidated to be the bigger man. Zidane fucken HEADBUTTED the dude in his chest! I mean, I don't care how badly he got mad, the red card was the right call.
