W0000Tttt ITALY WON THE WORLD CUPPP!!!

reflux · 09-July-06, 04:44 PM

I watched from about 20 minutes in but got bored when the whistle went at 90 minutes. There's only so much football I can stand. Still, both teams played really well.

As if Zidane and France even deserved to win after that "show of sportsmanship"...

At least my boss will be in a good mood at work tomorrow...

Great World Cup. Unfortunately my team came in 3rd, but I was rooting for Italy in that game....if for no other reason than I don't like the french.

P.S> **** Zidane.

I won Ã‚Â£10 'cause France got through to the semi, could've got Ã‚Â£20 if they'd won but oh well.

Does anyone know why Zidane did that chest to head butt??

Bionic · 09-July-06, 07:49 PM

I was pulling for France/Zidane until that head-butt. Totally ruined the game for me, as up until then I thought it was a good match. Plus I hate to see the WC decided on penalties...

cuz materazzi held him i think !

Bionic · 09-July-06, 10:07 PM

I actually think he said something that set him off. Only thing I can think of is some sort of slur.
I'm sure the info will come out in a few days.

silvafish · 09-July-06, 10:14 PM

I said Mexico was going to win...and i think they got to one of the two games before the final game. I watched the first 20 minutes of it and then left back to mankato from lincoln, NE....long drive.

Lets just say I've been walking an 'air' since around 4:30ish today

Did they ever find out what they said to zidane to make him do that? He must have really said somthing to make him that mad.

GrandpaNoob72 · 09-July-06, 11:59 PM

I was looking around on MSN and FOX sports... Zidane's parents apparently immigrated to France and lived in a not-so-rich part of France... Might have had something to do with that, or with his age (not gonna play in the next Cup), or who-knows-what-else... Some of the French players told French reporters that it was a racial slur of some kind...

Materazzi wouldn't comment on what he said to Zidane, either, so who knows?

Did you guys know that one of the only wars the french won was their own civil war?

z0mbi3 · 10-July-06, 03:28 AM

No, and that really was off topic
