I reckon that Italy had a team of boffins working to develop the perfect Zidane insult. And they say the Germans prepare well.

Kn*b.

Can Zidane pick up the cup if France wins?

Zidane. Mad b*stard.

Nice dive by Malouda for the pen.

Does anyone know what does surgery for septic arthritis involve?

They are playing that oompah band version of YNWA again.

Nah, there was light contact then about ten minutes later Henry dived. Henry was almost standing still where Gerrard was at full pelt. I'm not surprised it was given though.

Nice dive from Henry.

Best game of the tournament so far. It was absolutely engrossing, was played in a great spirit and well reffed. Great goals as well.

Yes! Grosso.

Funny how that clip leaves out the bit where, after the red card, Rooney goes back to the ref and asks why the sending off and the ref demonstrates why by making a stamping action with his foot. Funny how despite admitting having watched the replay dozens of times you also seem to have overlooked that part. Funny how when someone posts a picture of the ref making that stamping action you still don't seem to realise its significance.

Teams: England: Robinson, Neville, Ferdinand, Terry, A Cole, Beckham, Lampard, Hargreaves, Gerrard, J Cole, Rooney. Portugal: Ricardo, Miguel, Carvalho, Meira, Valente, Petit, Maniche, Tiago, Figo, Ronaldo, Pauleta. Referee: Horacio Elizondo (Argentina)

Fabio Aurelio has revealed his reasons for leaving Valencia for Liverpool. The Brazilian is set to join Liverpool this weekend on a free transfer when his contract at La Mestalla expires. The move has been mooted for some time with Reds boss Rafa Benitez a big fan of the player having worked with him at Valencia. Aurelio, who is expected to sign a four-year deal at Liverpool, admitted the chance to work with Benitez again was too good to turn down. "It is a sporting decision why I have decided my future and I have greater possibilities to grow as a player," Aurelio told Marca. "The comfortable thing would have been to have stayed because my family was adapted and we have many friends, but I have objectives and one of them is to get in the Brazil squad. "I am going to a new club in which the trainer knows me, to see if I can conquer the objectives I have set myself. "The most important moments I had in my career were the titles (with Valencia) and that was with Benitez. "He trusted me and he continues to trust me and that is what I value more." Aurelio admitted he was sad to be leaving Valencia after six years in Spain. "I am sad to leave a place in which I have been very happy," added Aurelio. "They welcomed me very well and this city is like my home. "It is always difficult to leave your home." http://home.skysports.com/list.asp?HLID=39...ss&clid=191

I've got most to win on Ukraine (£25 a go sweep at work, pays down to fourth though I'm not holding out much hope) and I've got £25 at 8-1 on Argentina, but I've a feeling Germany might win it.

Aaaarrrrrgghhhh! I had £3 on Viera at 20-1 for last goalscorer.

Harry = Murph Australia forward Harry Kewell missed Monday's World Cup second round defeat by Italy as he was suffering from gout. The Liverpool man, 27, was diagnosed with the disease on Saturday, but the news was kept secret in the hope that he would recover in time to play. "He's got gout on his foot," team-mate Scott Chipperfield revealed. "He's in a lot of pain, he can't walk, he's walking on crutches. It was disappointing for us, because we could have done with him." Gout is a painful form of arthritis which is caused when crystals of uric acid build up in joints, most commonly the big toe. Socceroos captain Mark Viduka added that Kewell had been given as long as possible to recover in time to play. "People say it's a 24-hour, 48-hour thing and we were hoping it would be all right," said the striker. "(Assistant coach) Graham Arnold had that when we were in (the training) camp and he was all right in 24 hours, but Harry woke up this morning and was still struggling." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/w...lia/5119308.stm
