Anyways, they won, because they had the most luck of all the teams,

Have you seen Portugal-France ?
Or France-Brasil ?
France-Switzerland ?

France = old and tired players .

They thinked to win the world cup with results as 0-0, 1-0, 1-0 by penalty, etc : ROTFL!

Anyway .. Brasil 5 WC, we 4, Germany 3, Argentina 2 .

France ? Only one in France98, wow, with we don't know what sort of tricks ..

I think it's kinda strange to make that score with wich nation won the most world cups since...in a way we are talking about different generations and different times if you ask me.
Italy won...and indeed they were the team with the most luck of them all. It's their style...play rather crappy 89 minutes and in the last minutes of play they somehow get an occasion and score the goal. That happened with Germany also.
I for one supported Germany and i really liked how they played in the small final with Portugal.
Surprisingly alot of support in Romania for Italy. ALOT! Many people went on the streets and celebrated.

I understand you may find it difficult to exercise some self-constraint on the free flow of your thoughts, and, alas, we have to cope with your outbursts on virtually every single subject in this forum, including football.
Fair enough.

But please spare us this sort of stereotypical (and indeed a bit racist) innuendos.

Racist... Yep, indeed, I hate the French.

While we are at the subject of racism.

Do you know article 55 of the Fifa? About racism?

So, IF Materazzi said anything racist to Zidane, Italy has to be disqualified! And so far Materazzi admitted he insulted Zidane, but claims it was nothing racist. Well we will see...
Zidane is a very fair player and has never been like this before. So it is possible it's been a racist comment.

Yes indeed. I mean clearly the man knew that this was the last game in his national team. He is a pro, and although the tension was high, for sure Materazzi said smth to him that boiled him instantly. A lip reader said that Materazzi said to Zidane smth about his mother, and that Zizu goes sky high when you curse the relatives. It's normal in a way. Also the reader said Materazzi made him a french terrorist or smth like that. Also i understood that Zidane's mother was sick that day so that was that. So clearly the italian cursed him and his mother....in a way he was lucky he didn't get his face smashed. He deserved much more than that head in the chest...

Well article 55 IS true. It is one of those new articles of the Fifa rules to prevent and fight racism.
And they are investigating the Zidane case.

I don't think they will disqualify Italy, because Zidane will say it was a racist comment and Materazzi will deny, because both want to win their case. And lip reading isn't enough evidence, I guess.

But Fifa is allways good for surprises, so, who knows... Let's wait and see...
