    As for the Italian 'victory'. Obviously they're a good team (but that's no surprise). What I will remember about the winners is bad fouls and cheating (diving) vs the USA, cheating (diving) vs Australia, and provoking Zidane to do something crazy in what may be his last game.

    Yeah, way to win

    I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

      ACK!
      There was a French counter attack late in the 1st or 2nd OT that was stopped because of a Italian player who was laying on the ground way off the ball. Sure he was clipped, but it was unintentional and there was no foul called.

      There were much worse examples in other games.

        Well definately not the best team in the tourney but atleast now the french haven't won the cup more then us so thats the only plus from a bunch of cheats who shouldn't have gotten past the aussies winning. Pens were well taken though, must have stolen some german magical power after scraping past them before they'd have shown how to really take em.

          Of course still no reason to loose temper this way.
          Had Zidane spared even a little bit of his brain capacity to think about it before he acted, he should have come to the conclusion that leading his team to victory is much more important than the insults by an italian
          Oh, of course. Whatever Materazzi said, whether it was racist or about Zizou's family, it was Zidane's fault to not step back and think and realize what the result would have been if he got pissed off.

            I'll have forgotten it all by the next one (or maybe later today)

                            That was the one. He rolled around until the French counter was stopped.

                              Say what you will about the headbutt, but the above statement is incredibly laughable.
