Zidane's headbutt was the best thing I've ever seen.

Straight in the chest. You know you would if it was your last ever game.

Congratulations for Italy!They have quality and attitude enough to win without those odd tricks(elbows, upset the enemy...)but of course nobody forced Zizou to act like (in my opinion)an angry clown...

So, Italy won. I hate those guys. The goal that Zidane gave in 7' is just awesome, but not as awesome as the heaschest!

We'll wait for 2010 World Cup in South Africa. Who do you think will qualify?
If the following teams qualify, i laugh.

Singapore, Togo, Cameroon, Serbia & Montenegro, Colombia and Denmark.

Not to start a discussion now the world cup is ended but, Cameroon is probably the best African team, and Togo were not so bad, they just did not score their chances...
Colombia has good football tradition so you should not dump them lol
And Denmark, they were not so bad, there were just better teams at the moment

but if Singapore do qualify I will laugh with you too gladly, I will even become a bullfighter myself

Oops, mods erase this thread, when I open my big mouth I always end regreting it...

I agree with Fu Su Lu.
@ LillyXChris: In qualification Togo was good and Cameroons qualifications-group was the heaviest in the African qualification: Ivory Coast, Egypt and Cameroon (and if Cameroon had won the last game against Egypt - the current African champ - they would have qualified) so Cameroon has been only one point behind Ivory Coast so it wouldn't be absurd if they'll qualify again.
Serbia&Montenegro has been in the same qualifications-group as Spain and they made first place, (Spain had to make a play off-game against Slovakia to get the qualification, sorry Fu Su Lu that I remind you on this

) and in World Cup they've been in the same group as Argentina and Netherlands, did you really expect they could win against these teams?!? So no need to laugh when they'll qualify again.
Colombia has missed the playoff-game against Australia about one point (behind Uruguay and Uruguay won the first game and Australia the second by penalty shoot out so Australia was qualified), in qualification Colombia played in Brazil 0:0 and at home against Argentina 1:1, so I can't understand why it should also be absurd if they'll qualify again.
In Denmarks qualifications group has been Ukraine, Turkey and Greece too (Greece is the current European champ) and Denmark was better than Greece and Ukraine had only 3 points more than Denmark, so they aren't that bad you seem to suppose.

If you had Bolivia, Panama, Liberia, Uganda on your list I would agree with you.

Its strange how unconsciously I missed Serbia. Yes you are right about them.I supose probably due to the bad moments they made me pass when they dumped us to the play off I unvoluntarily forgot about them

I think the quote button does not love me very much, it never works for me lol

Uncheck the "Disable BBCode in this post" option when you post.

On World Cup, I've been seeing an increasing number of animated gifs depicting in Zidane's headbutting in all kinds of fashion. It was that bad, huh.
