Again, let's talk about World Cup 2006.It's been a great one month of soccer. I guess.I watched the finals and boy, I was miserable.France lost to Italty, 3-5, thru the penalty shootout.I was lost for words when Zidane was given a red card for headbutting Materazzi.BUMMER!Overall, I think France did a better job tho Italy too played a big role for the defence.Great defence, I must say.Oh, well.I couldn't understand why France's coach substituted Frank Ribery followed by Thierry Henry.I mean they were the key players and why must they be substituted after they lost Zidane?I watched Barthez performance and to me, it wasn't a good job.It was all so wrong for me.SO WRONG.And guess what?For the past 2 days, I didn't dare to read the newspaper or listen to any news regarding the final.I can't bear to hear about Zidane's seeing red.I wanted to cry.How could Zidane ends his soccer career in a bad way?I was really heartbroken.
And to see the Italy lifted the Cup was a huge blow.I nearly cry seeing Trezeguet in tears.
But again, I really appreciate France's effort and that it was already a good achievement in reaching the finals.And to Italy, congratulations to your 4th winning in World Cup..You know what?In the next 4 years to come, I really hope to see Turkey qualified and be one of the 32 countries involved.Till then, GOODBYE FIFA WORLD CUP 2006..
