That was a gift by the ref. They rightly screwed up the set play.

Ronaldo must be embarrassed to have that name on the back of his shirt after the cheating antics of his Portuguese namesake.

I was more curious if they were born in France or if they were from the former French colonies and naturalized French citizens.

First shot by Brazil in the 90th minute. France saves it.

Hahaha, Angstgegner hat das Zeug zum Germanismus.

Brazil is about to drop! So the only bad thing about today is that England lost. I got dead drunk with some Brits yesterday, only thing I remember is they were no monkey hangers...I would have loved to see GER-ENG in the finals.

Why? Have you seen the dive Ronaldo just took. That was cheating of the worst sort.
