Plus, they showed that incredibly fine Brazilian girl in the stands.

Shouldn't let her write her own stuff

So, I've never followed club soccer nor tournaments like Euro 2008. Who is going to help me learn when and what to watch?

I'd go with Materazzi. Scored the lone legitimate goal of the match, played sterling defense, and sunk his PK.

And brilliantly acted when Zidane butted him.

Get a sports channel that shows La Liga and drink deeply.

Especially when the ref gives a couple of cards within the first 90 seconds. Those are pretty interesting to say the least.

Im sure therell be threads dedicated to it in the future after the success of this thread.

theasfl · 07-09-2006, 05:16 PM

any chance in hell of ESPN showing Euro2008? I know they showed 1996 and/or 2000, but not 2004. Hopefully the success of this WC will revive their interest.

Well, I'm off to play Football Manager. Viva Italia! I look forward to the 2010 thread.

quite a shame that Zidane's career will end of imagery of him acting like a thug.

I have to say, who would have thought Italy would win? it seems like every match that their entire team would be taken down by some incredibly painful foul, limp or be carried off of the field. and then they would miraculously recover 30 seconds later. Oh the courage they showed....

Where did they take their lessons from, Vlade Divac?

Manu Ginoboli came in for a guest lesson as well.

Speaking of FM: I have long wanted a football sim management game. Is FM the absolute best?
