France kills Brazil, England loses to PK’s
Wow. Just wow. France beat Brazil in the quarterfinals. How the fuck did they do that? Oh yeah… they’ve got Zidane, Henry, and my new favorite, Rivery. Holy shit is Rivery good with the ball. That guy is seriously amazing to watch, hell, they all are. Zidane pulls a little spin move in midfield like it was nothing. He’s not doing to bad for being 34. What a great game to watch… France deserved that win.
It can’t be easy being Wayne Rooney, especially after he got red carded for stomping on Carvalho’s nutts. He probably feels like shit for getting ejected, but to his credit, the fight for the ball went on much longer than it should have. Still, it’s gotta hurt that in all respects, that probably cost England the game and their chance at the final. I think he’s a brilliant player, but he’s just got to reel in his aggression a bit. It’s bad enough that FIFA is demanding an explanation for his actions, which could lead to legal problems for him. More shit like this and he’s not going to have much more of a career. I still can’t believe that England lost to Portugal in penalty kicks. If Beckham and Rooney had stayed in, I think it would have ended differently. Apparently Beckham feels like shit too because he’s no longer Englands captain. Oh well… they’re out, and now my favorite to win is France.
I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s game with Germany vs. Italy. I think it’s going to be a spectacular game, but ultimately, I see Italy winning. We shall see.
