Team mates turned into rivals having after meeting in an unexpected quarter-final. Ronaldo winked to his bench and walked over to the referee after Rooney made a bad tackle stomping on the Portuguese's grion.

The award is given mainly because of Ronaldo's bad tease and also Rooney for killing his team's chance to proceed in the world cup just because of arguing.

Now they even have to fight for this award.

GOLDEN BALL AWARD

Fabio Cannavaro (ITA)
Zinedine Zidance (FRA)
Gianluigi Buffon (ITA)

A FEW MISSES WE DIDN'T MIND

His oustanding performance, having unbeaten on the field is great. An own goal and a penalty is accidental. Given that penelty could have been a trick of Zidane knowing how great a keeper Buffon is, he needed to chip the ball that way to ensure it went in.

Gentlemen in the cup, he's been talking and being so friendly to opponents that almost burst pass his line.

MY PICK, MY HERO. BUFFON

A Beautiful Ending For WC 2006
5:24 AM

Who would have thought the Finals would be so exciting?

An early penalty gave Zidane and Co a 1-0 lead.

The hit-the-pole-bounce-luckily-beyond-the line goal stunned all.

They thought Buffon did it.

The whole coffeshop went in panic.

Most of us looked at our Special from Singapore Pools. First Goal By Italy. *TEAR*

Then came a cross to ITALY's Materazzi was headed in!!! GOAL!!!!!

The coffeeshop was high in spirts.

Then came another. HIT THE POST!

-Half Time-

Jia Wei looked at me. H-A,H-H,H-D *TEAR*

Italy Win. Still got chance.

Second Half. ITALY's Luca Toni SCORES with a diving header! THE WHOLE COFFESHOP WENT WILD.

The linesmans waves his checked flag. OFFSIDE


BOO!

-EXTRA TIME-

In the ninth minute of overtime, Franck Ribery of France shot wide off the far post. It was the closest any player had come to scoring in overtime.

Second Half Of Extra Time. We saw Zidane headbutting Marco Materazzi in the chest after the two exchanged words while walking down the field.

3 Minutes of delay and Zi Zou was sent to the locker room.

Will France LIFT THEIR CUP w/o their captain?

PE PEE PEEEEEE!!

-PENALTY-

First 3 shots went in.

David Trezrguet. France vs Senegal 2002. He went for a shot that hit the high post. He went down history as he did that again.

VERDICT : ITALY 5-3 ON PENALTY
