27 days 21 hours to go...or put differently, this time in 4 weeks the World Cup will be underway with the first match just about wrapping up!
After yesterday's education/reminder of what the World Cup is all about, here's a compilation of the best bits from the last World Cup Finals, held in Germany in 2006. This should whet your appetite for the competition...and imagine your team lifting the trophy at the end!
How many of these moments had you forgotten about? Joe Cole's stunning volley for England, and what about Zidane's headbutt in the final, what a way to end such a storied career!? To put that moment in perspective for American readers, imagine Michael Jordan headbutting an opponent during Game 7 of the NBA Finals, the last ever game of his career, and being sent off (ejected) and costing the Bulls the Championship! What a wierd game that was! Let's hope this years Final isn't decided by penalties, and that England spank Argentina 3-0; ok, let's make it 4-0 to calm the nerves!
