Discounting the dive by disgraced France in tonight's World Cup final that made it 1-1 till the penalty shoot out phase, Italy won all their games except for when the USA team held them to a 1-1 draw. That's pretty good. :)

France are still a nation of wimps! Italy has now won the World Cup four times - 1934, 1938, 1982 and 2006.

I'm somewhat of a soccer fan. I watched most of the game.

France looked much better - but the bottom line is the final score.

Italy looked tired - but they did what they had to.

I was shocked at Zidane's head-butt of the Italian player.

My Roman wife can start breathing again. The kids are muttering in Italian and wearing Totti t-shirts.

Bravo Azzurri!

I can't believe the dirty scumbag foul committed by Zidane towards the end. I've never seen such a filthy display of poor sportsmanship. In the end his girlyman hissy-fit cost them the game. The fellow who missed the shot on goal was his substitute.

I will forever remember Zidane for his hideous attack on a fellow sportsman. Live with that forever, you stinking frog!

I am listening to Shuttle Control Live right now and they just broke the news to everybody, some astronaut has his head in his hands, I guess he had money on it.

i wonder what would've happened if zidane would've stayed in.

In any case- I am glad that Italy won and, more importantly, france lost.

France could have lost and still looked good. But thanks to Zidane, they've disgraced their nation.

Pretty good outcome!

I don't care much for soccer, but when the Frogs lose, especially after having shown what classless, treasonous jackasses they are (e.g Zidane beahvior), well, I'm not too unsatisfied

C'mon when is the last time France has won anything in Germany? Think about it...it's destiny.

it's pandemonium in Rome! I called friends to congratulate Italy on its win and I could hear the noise of car horns, shouts, firecrakers from the street. My friend told me that tonight nobody will go to sleep, they will celebrate in the piazzas.

The French are very upset. The problem is, they burned all the cars the last time they rioted over something.
