absolutely devastating end for zidane

almost everybody expected zidane to leave the field with a golden trophy in his hand and a jubiliant smile on the face. or atleast pain of not touching the peak of success. but it seems he wanted a red one instead of the golden one and like the back door. heh heh. i mean he almost asked to be kicked out. what a shameful attack and rightly served. i couldnt find him getting his medal with others. had he left? was he ashamed? did he cry for blundering his efforts of years? who knows! he was a lonely titan. u wont find many skillful players these days. zidane was one. and now a fallen one.

france got their lucky hand in the 7th minute of the game. zidane almost spoiled the chance by hitting the cross bar. an inch upper would have been a 1-0 defeat to france. italy desparately attacked and got their goal by materazzi by a fantastic header from a corner. they almost got another one from a similar kind of attack which hit the cross bar. what i found out, a team needs luck along with talent to win the worldcup. france had it and lost it. where italy tried and kept it. i had always said italy is an awfully defensive team. and i really didnt expect them in the finals. on the other hand, france not playing well in the grp round, was on the verge of leaving the worldcup behind. yet these are the two teams that played the final match. they fought equally. and as i predicted, it needed a tie breaker to decide the world champions. where i thought 0-0, it was 1-1. the goal keepers didnt have to do anything. the result was decieded by david trezeguet. may be wanted to follow zidane, and thus hit the cross bar. but luck wont follow u every time. although i had doubt with the azzurries. they have a tradition to miss penalty shoot outs. but turned out well. congrats to Italy[the awfully defensive team with good looking players...:P] for beating a black team representing a white country! khikz!

bye bye zidane...:D
