Just can't bear Italian players' dirty tricks. I have nothing to do with France or Italy, Australia or USA.

Just wonder how could Anna claim 'people can't see another country to win'? The respect for Zizou is universal only because he's the best player as well as a humbel man, a good father, a good son and a good husband.

Zidane are the loser afterall, I quite agree with the comment given, he is childish, fame is all about his life. How can he react to the provoke by Materazi!! In whole the FRANCE are supporting him for his mistake. They are creating another terbulence in FIFA. Shame on FIFA for making big fuss on this issue, just because the corward is about to retire and the award being given?
If FIFA were to laid they business on Materazi then i guess FIFA is bias on one side. Is that fair?
In the name of sport - win is all in their head.

Varian... I must agree.. You are right.

After letting the pressure goes down, I admit... I was giving Zizou too much Credit (that is after I heard his public explanation - Not convincing, boring and 'Tellement prévisible' ). I am not the kind to fall for lame excuses. But You are right, probably he though he would get away with it!

Italy will keep the world Cup, they deserve it! Now it's up to both selection to prove for next Euro how tough they are!

Me, well I root for Portugal, so I will step away from this controversy.

Don't you think it woyld be cool to see Maniche Score from 50 yards away?

Take care all!

Disgusting Italan player did played dirty tricks against Zidane, and Italian players are barbarous too. Just look at American player McBride's boodly face, you know what type of players they're. And the Italian player's elbow barely missed McBride's eye bowl!

Italian players knew they definitely couldn't beat France with Zidane on the pitch. They never ever beat France this way or otherwise in the past 28 years. They first tried to hurt Zidane's shoulder, but Zidane held on despite the pain; then they resorted to the ultimate dirty tricks!

Mazi should be punished severely. Game-fixing Italy should be severely punished too.

Dirty Materazi should get his punishment for his disgusting and provocative deeds. And more importanly, game-fixing Italy should not get away without punishment, because game-fixing is a far more serious problem. It should be banned from internatinal matches for at least one year to set an example.
