While that Ronaldo vid was impressive, my football hero at the mo is easily Zidane. Watching him play against Brazil was simply amazing.

That said, I’m rooting for Portugal again vs Italy. :slight_smile: Then for France to beat Germany. :stuck_out_tongue:

#1062

he’s good … but this guy is magic:

zizou

BTW… nice read, thanks for the thread, I’ve enjoyed it

edit: it seems that I’m not the only one thinking that…

#1063

as a footbal fan (and being Portuguese ;)) i like C. Ronaldo but i think, as many others, that he should try to play a little more simple and effective, and left the tricks to whenever they could be useful, and sometimes they are the only way to win a play… but still he as a great technique.
I don’t have a problem assuming that we could make some use of a fabulous player such as Zidane, one of the best “feets” i ever saw in football!!! As was the case of Rui Costa, but football nowadyas has little to no space for players like Rui… with a delicate and smooth playing, players that thinked and at the same time, paused the game and turned it into another, more subtle and beautiful game. But i’m departing here…

and i agree, now lets get ready for the last sprint… :beer:

#1065

ok world cup is almost over so message edited :slight_smile:

#1066

I’m rooting for Germany, but they’ve been making more mistakes. Fantastic football so far, though. Exciting match. :thumbsup:

But yes, fantastic diving skills. o_O

edit:
Truth be told, though, I was hoping for Germany v France and Portugal v Italy, since I’ve been rooting for Portugal and France. Oh well, should be a really exciting match tomorrow.

Viva Italia! :thumbsup:

#1068

I’m rooting for Germany too but honestly Italians are good… at taking the ball away from the especially :rolleyes:

#1069

One of the best 0-0’s I’ve seen for a while. The Italians need a goal in extra time, if it goes to penalties they can say goodnight.

#1070

Quoted for agreement. The Italian defense has been airtight! :eek:

#1071

Go Italy! I’d like to see them go up against France in the finale.

#1072

#1073

oooooofffff…this is getting realy exiting…go italy go…dont let the penalies to bring you back home again like the past years…gooooooooo

#1074

Wow Grosso with 2 mins left of extra time. Sublime goal. What a finish.

Italy knew not to go to penalties then!

#1075

Ok I’m impressed! kudos Italia - 2 bloody goals in 1 minute :eek::bounce:

#1076

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Brilliant goal, though, and to be honest, they’ve been playing better than the Germans

OMG SECOND GOAL! :eek:

#1077

Wow Del Piero 2-0

What a finish to this game, utterly amazing. Italy truly deserved it was well, they played some great football tonight.

Congrats Italy, hard luck Germany.

They were the better team on the night, well deserved and a very nice finish for Italy.
