"Italics" of winning !

Hail cesar ! Rome would be lit with victory, a well deserved one .. By pure mechanics, their performance have been exponential in this world cup ! A few passings were genius .. Stats well show the romans possesed larger share of the pie(well pizzaa) most of time than their rivals ! French will have to wait till 2010 to take the revenge !
It's a pity that real madrid star had to be taught that it is the ball which had be headed & not the players .. The french captain could have taken a more deserved exit from professional football .. From now on 111 ( th minute) would continue to haunt the french ! But things apart zidane has given the fans some real good football over the years and was one of the main reasons for maintaining the football tradition of france .. Au reviour zizou !! His captainancy and seniority will be misssed by the team & fans world wide ...
Oliver Kahn too bid adieu .. A wonderful career from 1991 .. Has saved few precious goals at some critical moments though he had has his share of misses ! So long "kahn" !
And an intresting fact is that the rise in viewership of football back home ! Well, can it overtake our religious rigour called "cricket" ? Fans may field after football for sometime, but cricket is ultimately what they bat for :-) ! Hope a national football team of international calibre will not remain "An unfinished dream" !
