"This was a shocking exit for Brazil, the pretournament favorite. The Brazilians had just one shot on goal all game and allowed huge defensive gaps all night. Stars such as Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Kaka were either invisible or inept."....
A guy lets people call him KAKA?

I would concur with that statement Scuds
Brazil seemed to lack the passion & energy which make them great and fun to watch not just in this match, but all tournament as a huge fan, I'm disappointed in the result & the effort but they were simply outplayed by the inspired French however... I won't cry about it like Beckham I've lost all respect for him now I don't mind if he cried when they lost but he cried when it was tied with almost 30 minutes left in the match! why act defeated when you have not been? especially when you are supposed to be one of the team's leaders Portugal can thank him and the stupidity of Wayne Rooney plus an awesome winner from Cristiano for the win...hope they take it all!

France clearly outplayed Brazil and deserves to move on. Zidane and Ribery were wonderful. Ribery would be the man of the match for me. A wonderful little skitter bug with the ball. He was loads of fun to watch, bad teeth and all.

Brazil ... France ... Portugal ... England ...
... four teams ... 210 minutes of "action" ... ... and exactly one goal scored. The game is boooooorrrrriiiinnnnnggggg !!! If every baseball game went 18 innings to a 0-0 tie ... and had to be decided by a tee-ball home run contest ... that'd be real boring too.

Italians were the better team. They won. All is good. Very good defensive game by the Italians. I just wish they were not a bunch of drama queens.
I will have to go with France now. I love that little Ribery. Watch this guy, he is fantastic. Most overlooked player in this tourney. His motor is always on. With the ball he is damn fast and the ball never gets more than a foot away from him so it is almost impossible to knock it away. Great change of direction. I really like the guy. With a set of braces for his teeth, he too may have been able to date and marry a talentless girly vocalists. Take that Beckham ya crybaby.

Hey ... I just wanna see the ball go into the net. Isn't that the objective of all the nuance? How about today's game ... another 0-0 beauty ... but if you stayed awake for the overtime ... you finally got to see a score. Now that's nuance !!!

In honor of the victory by the Azzurri ... let's all sing "Azzurro" ... OK ... a-one ... and a-two ... and a- ...
Azzurro, il pomeriggio è troppo azzurro e lungo per me, mi accorgo di non avere più risorse senza di te, e allora io quasi quasi prendo il treno e vengo, vengo da te, ma il treno dei desideri, dei miei pensieri all'incontrario va. Sembra quand'ero all'oratorio con tanto sole, tanti anni fa... quelle domeniche da solo in un cortile a passeggiar... ora mi annoio più di allora: neanche un prete per chiaccherar... Azzurro, il pomeriggio è troppo azzurro e lungo per me, mi accorgo di non avere più risorse senza di te, e allora io quasi quasi prendo il treno e vengo, vengo da te, ma il treno dei desideri, dei miei pensieri all'incontrario va. Very good ... a whole lot better than "Deutschland Uber Alles" ... isn't it?

the Italian goal keeper is awesome
he's the best I've ever seen other than Patrick Waugh (Roy) the precision on that goal was something to behold sorry pg but I'm rooting for Portugal 2day they get Deco back, and France just won it in '98

France/Portugal ... another contest where not one goal was scored as a result of game action.
Sorry ... I just don't get the appeal of this sport. The players are very skilled ... but the game they play is a crashing bore.

this buddy of mine loved it when the baseball players went on strike in '94
he wanted them never to come back, because he couldn't stand baseball it never made sense to me though, because all you have to do is not watch but I s'pose I know where you are coming from everybody used to talk about "Friends" I tried watching it and found it totally shallow and although I never watched, I was happy when it ended Tonk K. was right on ESPN in saying there needs to be more scoring because if there is not, one good flops means the match well...I would suggest not having an offsides penalty purists would be appalled, but I feel this would open up the game to allow more goal opportunities but I'll give you that today's match was kind of ho-hum... Go Italy!

The match today was not the greatest. But these four players are fantastic to watch: Ribery, Zidane, C. Ronaldo, Figo. The French back line was tremendous today and made the game more boring for Portugal.
