Predictions Final (Italy Vs France): Difficult to decide, France have experienced players and 1998 in their memories. Italy have a bundle of talent and 3 world cups under their belt plus they perform well if there is a scandal in Italian footie. So I'd say Italy, but it will be close.
3rd place (Germany Vs Portugal): Germany easily, Portugal will try dirty tactics to 'fall' with every touch of a German player and win that way. NOT ON THEIR NELLIE!!

Good news nobody, Italy have won the World Cup on penalties!
*gets beaten up by Australian memebers*
I didn't watch the match, it's just what I've heard. You'll probably need to read the next post to find out more.

Not this post below, the next one down. BAH HUMBUG. Well, at least we lost to the eventual winners. No real crime in that I suppose...although I am surprised Italy won when it went to penatlties - remember 1994? ;D

I was really on edge after the game was still tied at overtime, but Italy won- as I was hoping. ;D Zidane probably cost his team the World Cup with that nasty headbutt that got him sent out of the game- good thing for me! I do think though that the offsides call was all wrong, and that Italy should've had that second goal...

Sorry to have to correct you even (In a Cat-style voice) if it really gets your feckles up... (in a Kryten-esque voice) er, I mean 'hackles'.

Extratime, not Overtime, Day Tripper. Good on Zidane for going out in style. All of those Italians are slimy cheaters.

I don't much like American football but they call it "overtime" whereas in what most countries call football it's "extra time". We call football "soccer" so when everyone's saying "football" I accidentally used a term from American football. Funny I should do that, as I know and like "soccer" better than "football". Slight difference anyhow but I might as well offer an explanation cause I'm actually ashamed to be caught on a mistake! Have to flat out disagree with your Italian comment- not only do I think they have a real powerhouse team with a lot of great players, but I'm mostly of Italian blood myself!

They ballsed up their last penalty shootout in Beckhamesque fashion and there was no reason to suspect they'd do anything different this time.
