Zidane may not have set much of an example at the end, but the rest of the team really showed the rest of the world how to lose a penalty shoot out with dignity.
They did not kick off like spoilt children (Argentina) or cry like babies (England) but just took it on the chin.
I was in the happy position of not caring who won. Obviously I would prefer England to have won, but if they couldn’t I would have been happy to see Italy, Germany, Brazil, Holland, France or Spain win. I would also have been happy to see Australia and Ghana get at least one stage further.
Is that you wearing a Brazil shirt, Skuds, with that head-butting dome of which Zidane would be proud ? (Page 10, Crawley Observer, July 12) 🙂
Just a bright yellow jacket I’m afraid.
And I think baldness suits me better – ZZ looked better with hair.
