| It is heart-shattering to watch the anticipated England vs France match in Euro 2004 today. Despite the fact that I am not a number one supporter for England, I do favor them to win this match. It was a sure win for England until the last 7 minutes. England was leading 1-0 after Lampard headed the ball from Beckham's free kick and the way England lined their defense, I was pretty damn sure they were gonna win eventhough England could have done better if Beckham did not miss his penalty kick. A foul by Heskey awarded France a free kick and another foul by goalkeeper James awarded them with a penalty kick. Given the fact that both kicks were taken by the world's most valuable player, Zinedine Zidane, France won the game 2-1. And both goals were scored during injury time! And coincidentally, both fouls were caused by Liverpool players. Stupid Liverpools! But I gotta say, that free kick from Zidane that awarded France their first goal, phew.... that was a really beautiful one! No argue there that Zidane is indeed the world player of the year. Next to look forward to, Italy vs Denmark tomorrow. Vive O 2004! |
