World Cup 2006

Excellent game!!

NOw hopefyully Portugual smacks the crap out of the French. Hopefully the Portuguese defense can contain Thierry Henry!!

WC finals.

ITALY VS PORTUGUAL

PORTUGUAL WINS!!

No way...have we all Forgotten that France beat the mighty BRAZIL? Who, by the way, had not had an entire goal scored on them in the entire tournament? I think France takes it all, but not without bringing their "A" game.

That was the best that this old French team can play. I can't see them repeating that performance again. Should they beat Portugal, Italy will take them out.

Horrible penalty called!


Still a good game.. portugual out played france !! more shots on goal.. more control of the ball!!

Im so disappointed!! :angry:

Going to be a great final on Sunday. An aging French team with the legendary Zidane on their side against the resiliant Italians who have gotten better as the tournament has gone on. I think Italy has the advantage since they have the best defence and goalie in the world right now, and I can't see how the French will get a goal on them. Time will tell.


All I can say is:

FORZA ITALIA!!!!!

Good Luck Z... if they win, anarchy will break loose, looting, pilaging, etc... marshall law take effect...i imagine... glad i will be on holidays someplace safe

Just kidding... enjoy the game, we have no dish where we are going!

I still think France will win it all, regardless of the age. I guess we'll have to wait and see. I guess more importantly, I want to see a good match...the way a championship game SHOULD be.

 

[boonedoggle]

Awesome match thus far...

 

[boonedoggle]

End of regulation...who's going to pull it off?

[Brickhouse]

That was just plain dirty and low. What an ass. It's a shame that now he'll be remembered for that.

 

[boonedoggle]

I was in shock! Isn't he retiring after this game? What a shitty way to go!

No officials seen it...it was only after they put the replay on the big screen that he got a red card.

I'm looking for pics on the web

ITALY TAKES IT!!!

 

[Devil Doc]

Forza Italia!!! I don't think I could have endured losing to the French.

So maybe the city I live in is a little bit Italian... but did anyone else's place have people caravan-ing around honking their car horns and waving flags?

LOL. Toronto has a HUGE Italian population.

Buddy -- here's a street right near my mom's place:

I took the first 2 shots. Here's one from one of our newspapers:
