Finally the world cup, italy and france... i really hope italy wins, but anything can happen in football. I think this should be a peaceful game and no roughness.

Cannavaro / Henry is going to be an enormous duel as he has a very bad recollection of him ...
Frence won't play, they wait because they have 6 very precise players (Sagnol, Viera, Makelele, ZIdane, Ribery ... dead-tired-Malouda) able to launch Henry-Taeopodong-2 ...

H - 1 hour, are you ready Italy ? you'll see how play old players of France.

I have just been watching the scenes from Roma, and wish I was there!!

I am looking forward so much to this final. Either way, I shall raise a glass to the winners!!

Forza Azzuri! (and Bon Chance France )

This is such a tough match to call both teams have players that can win the match with one moment of pure genius.Both defences are pretty and sound both have players all over the park that could nick a goal.
I have nothing against either side and it's all set up for a cracking match

My head is saying that France are just going to nick it maybe in extra time

What's the betting the losing country has alot of people on here later saying how cheated they were

mid time !

1-1

how difficult it is to france, italy plays better, they're physically, tactically and technically superior to our beloved french team. if the second half is like the first, i think italy will win this world cup ! they deserved it for instance.

so hard to watch to me, french supporter. what's going on ? i hope experience and midfield battle will turn to our advantage and will allow france to score and win the match.

aller les bleus ! réveillez vous !!!!!! go, go France !!!!!!

What makes you say that? There hasnt been any fans feeling cheated on this forum in all the previous matches, why would it start now?

materazi makes a fault on Viera on the italian goal, the referee helps the italians like always.

Dialyser haha

My summary of the match:
zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

edit: wow, what a headbutt by Zidane He destroyed his team and his career.

Congratulations to Italy and its fans Although i wanted France to win it was nice to see italy overcome their penalty jinx (maybe we will one day as well )

what a awfull night !

where is the sportive justice ? congratulation to italy to wait and don't play this finale. that's a real non sense.

materazzi, you're the biggest [beep!] in this world, yes, saying something to zinedine, you succeed in what you wanted. you should never come in france guy, we should kill you.... and zidane don't have too get that reaction, what a pitty, is it a way to win a world cup ?

congratulation to italy, they certainly don't deserved this finale but they won it.

They probably should have gone over the rules with Zidane again after that viscious headbutt from Figo went unpenalized he probably assumed it was fairplay. Anyway as a fan of neither really but of football, France definitely outplayed Italy, Zidane and Henry are brilliant players but Italy was amazing defensively and that's what seemed to win it. At least Italy plays fair and weren't diving all over the field whenever another player ran by them. Good job Italy and France. Thank you Germany!

I'm so sadddddddddddd....

Zidane was so stupid... Pelé will stay the best player of all time for sure...

Zidane couldn't have found a worse way to end his career

Unfortunately didn't happen quite a planned
Are you going to introduce yourself in the newcomer section soon?

Even if he fighted with te referee?????? LOL

ITALIAN CHEATERS, you've paid the referee to send Zidane off, you've made this night a nightmare to Zidane !

CHEATERS !

well we do not know exactly the whole story with Zidane and Materazzi , no excuse for the headbutt from Zidane , did he cost France the World Cup , i dont know but he made it more difficult for them and no doubt he would have been one of the penalty takers too , what a way to end his career .
