[football] World cup final

Zidane is not going to be a popular man tonight. Hell of a way to retire from the game...

Nice headbutt, though.

Despite my financial gain with Italy winning, I feel like a cheat personally. Zidane and all...Italy did not play the better game and penalties is an awful way to go.

Still, foolish Zidane.

Agreed. On both counts.

I mean... what on earth was he thinking?

"It's the world cup final, it's my final game, we're in extra time and probably heading for penalties... hmm... I'll just walk up to Materazzi and headbutt him in the chest. Yeah. That'll relieve the tedium.

I know we're in a packed 75,000 capacity stadium that's crammed with cameras... but the ball's over there, so I'm sure nobody will notice...
