A concluding chapter...

Just wrote a long article bt my thoughts on wad happened at the world cup finals last night... But comp suddenly restarted n here i am again... Haiz...

Well, was just thinking tt it takes many years to build up a reputation but just a second to destroy it... How unfair is that? YEs, its a moment of folly n rashness for Zidane, but to condemn him for just 1 incident since a lil harsh... Ppl are now doubting him, just as the new paper suggests, "is he an angel, or a devil?" An angel for 10+ years of precise passes, graceful movements, unrivalled skill... A devil for 1 second of uncalled violence... I really find it such a pity... I do... But to me, he is and will forever remain as the best midfielder i have seen, even after the world cup incident... N i think the media agree with me, by giving him the Golden Ball award, it shows tt they're overlooking yesterday's incident for his inspirational and captivating performance during the world cup... Aidos Zidane, and thanks for all the moments of magic u've brought to the game...

But although, i'd personally think that Cannavaro deserves it even more... Everytime u c a striker with a ball, u'd see Cannavaro... His tackles, his determination, his undying spirit has won him my utmost respect in the world cup... N even though Zidane is the best player ever, but in the world cup, Cannavaro deserves the honour... but tts soccer for u, there're many sides to a ball... everyone has his own opinion, but tts just my personal take on it...

Many would say that France was the better side yesterday, having dominated the 2nd half, with quite a few gd chances... Yeah, they shd win becos of that... But taking a step back, Italy has an impregnable defense in the form of Cannavaro n Buffon too... N based on tt, we can say tt they deserve to win for their defence... What i am trying to say is, its always hard to say who deserve to win... they're always 2 sides to it, depending on how u want to argue...

But being an Italian supporter, i am glad they win the world cup after all the effort from the players n coach... Lippi's tactics... Buffon's safe hands... Cannavaro's solid defending... Grosso's match winners... Pirlo's passes... Gattuso's tackles... Gogo Italy... N may they get over their scandal soon...
