The end of WC...
So, that's it with the world cup, over and done with...
After a thrilling final, a good French team in the second half, 30 minutes of extended time and a truly shocking intermezzo by Zidane, who headbutted an opponent, got sent off and thereby ended his carreer in disgrace, Italy decided the game in the penalty shoot out and took the trophy. So the results are:
1st - Italy
2nd - France
3rd - Germany
2nd - France
3rd - Germany
Not really overwhelming but still a satisfying result, I think...

I think Zidane was right to headbutt him: the portugese guy shouldn't have been insulting his mother.... i've put people in hospital for the same types of insults: well done Zinedine!

@Joel: haha, wait until you try the 'notorious natto' or the 'ugly urchins'... lol
or are ya gonna back out on this?
@Josh: it was definitely not right to insult his mother (although that's not been confirmed yet, has it?) but headbutting him also wasn't a good way of reacting! we aren't in the stone age anymore, man... there's a much more subtle way: 1) not getting sent off, winning the game and grinning at the lame italians 2) suing the shit out of him!!
