That was vicious, for want of better words to describe it, but spectacular nonetheless!!! What an amazing headbutt! No one in the WWE can match up to that! Hell not even a crazy bull from Spain running into a red flag can deliver that kind of a blow (well maybe it can....but this is surely visually entertaining :) ) But why did he do it? Zizou, the French magician, who single handedly took a lacklustre French team to the final... why did he lose his cool in the last few minutes where glory was there waiting to be claimed? Did we expect it from him, a sportsman of his calibre?

Supposedly the Italian Materazzi insulted him, racially abused him. Well that is a foul in itself and deserves a separate red card anyway, but then again couldn't the sudden vent of anger waited till the end of the game? A few seconds of madness? Exactly.

But then again possibly it was a statement from him. A passing remark at the end of his career highlighting the unfortunate situation that still prevails in this world. What I fail to understand is why some people cannot live with the fact that they are equal and not superior to other fellow humans around them. Yes there should be competition and there are bound to be differences in abilities but then again shouldn't we be sane enough to acknowledge them as gifts (or maybe misfortunes) rather than use them to discriminate?

Yes, if everything were that simple then these problems wouldn't have arisen in the first place. I guess its just the way it is supposed to be..... maybe in some parallel universe, possibly everything went the way it should have been... everything just clicked and fell into place. And we are all stuck in the wrong universe!!!!

Why am i getting all serious? It was just a football match. And what a cracker it was! I enjoyed every minute of it. I wanted Les Bleus to win but alas! I guess Domenech made a few mistakes and Trezeguet was an idiot! Well done Italia!!! The world cup was simply awesome.... gave me some entertainment in an otherwise idle vacation. Its an amazing celebration... people from all over the world coming together and enjoying.I only wish that the darker side to it fades away fast.

Isn't it just people kicking the ball around with some arbitrarily defined purpose? :) Fascinating that so many people including me are crazy over it! These small things do in fact prove that after all we all are animals........
