Its 12.30am in Singapore as I'm blogging this.Time: 7/10/2006 12:40:00 AM
An hour away from the final football match everyone on the face of this globe will be watching.
The finals of the World Cup between Italy and France.
And I am seriously fighting the Snooze Monster.
Tried every possible crap to stay awake (minus drinking coffee cause I can't drink caffeine).
Must stay awake...
Must stay awake...
Must watch the match...
My friend suggested I blogged so here I am.
Yawn...
Why can't they have it on this side of the world like last time?
I remembered four years ago I was with my equally-clueless-about-football-unless-its-the-World-Cup friend at the Padang (there was a huge TV monitor showing the finals between Germany and Brazil, it had a picnic-ky atmosphere)
And almost everyone there was wearing green and yellow.
I think in a 10 metre radius, I was the only idiot screaming my lungs out for Germany (my friend was also a Brazil 'fan', he was just backing the favourites lah)
Of course Brazil won that year.
I had really wanted the two rivals to meet again in this year's World Cup finals.
And I had hoped things would go my favour but alas, Brazil had to lose to France and Germany to Italy.
Dammit.
Germany!!!
Never mind, at least you are third.
I can't say the same for Brazil.
Hah!
10 minutes to go.
Hopefully its an exciting match.
Not like the Germany VS Italy one.
It was freaking dull until the last minute (literally).
After that, I was pulling out my hair.
Highlights of the painful match.
Got to go now!
Yawn...
For the love of God, stay awake Shazi.... zzzzzzzzzz.......
Latest Update:
Italy won.
What's wrong with me?
My predictions have been wrong since day 1.
To those who bet, always always bet against my predictions...
But I do admit Italy was the slightly better (just slightly, they were almost equally good) team.
And their defense is like impenetrable!
France must have lost their concentration when Zinadine was given the red card.Everything went downhill from there.
Anyway, that head butt was so uncalled for.
What's the deal?
Even if he was provoked, he should have bit his lips and bear with it.
I mean, his grand exit from professional football was so disgraceful!
Can you imagine if France had won?
He wouldn't even be allowed out of the changing room to carry the World Cup trophy!
See here for more details.
Latest Update: Here is the clip with the highlights of the match. Watch it! Plus Zidane's red card too.
Cya all.
