Head to the Butt!!

Ok, Italy won the World Cup, and left fans of Brazil, Argentina, France and Germany very disappointed indeed! However the entire final was eclipsed by the one incident we are all talking about - yes, the head butt of Zidane. It was kinda like he was making a declaration to the rest of the world that he was not going to come back again, and to remind everyone what a great player he was! No, really, I am not being sarcastic. I think, before Ronaldinho came onto the World stage, Zizou was the exponent of the cute step-overs and over-the-shoulder chips. All we could exclaim before he messed up his last 10 minutes was - "Joga Bonito"!!

The Best Team Does Not Always Win!

Ever wondered ahy the best team doesn't always win? The Argentinian soccer team, for example? No doubt, with players like Ayala, Messi, Riquelme, Maxi and Tevez, it was the favorite to win the World cup this year. Well, I guess it takes more than just strength to win something. Hard work, perseverance, determination and a wee bit of luck. No wonder we have Portugal and Germany in the semi finals of the cup
