Ha..re mansion! thats not what he said man. On the other hand, I think it was very disappointing for Zidane to go off in that fashion in his last game. He is a class player and has brought with him a generation of young French stars. Something must have been said or done for Zizou to be ticked off like that, but again there is no excuse for such behaviour. He was obviously red carded and got his punishment but I think France lost their best penalty kicker. I'd be interested to find out who saw Zidane's moment of madness - the assistant and ref didn't seem to see it. Is it part of the 4th or 5th officials remit to alert them to it? Or did they watch a replay on the big screen! If that's the case then Italy shouldn't even be there, they would have lost to Australia in ET had the ref not been conned! I think France dominated the second half and the extra time. Italy were never looking like they were threatening. France were attacking and it was pity that the better side lost but again, will the Italian care? Ofcourse not. It is party in Rome tonight and the cup is back in Italy for the fourth time. Congrats to them. I think this has been a very good tournament. We have got some fantastic matches. But again, wouldn't you hate to be Thierry Henry? runner up in Champions League and now runner up in World Cup.
