Best/worst moments of the worldcup

As world cup draws closer to the end, lets revisit some of the highlights of the worldcup and list your best/worst moments of the cup.

My pick:

Best moments:

Rosicky’s goal against america
Frings’ goal against costarica
Zidane’s incredible twist and turn against Brazil
Cech’s superb saves against Ghana
Saudi’s doing sajda’s after scoring goals
Maxi Rodriguez’s strike against Mexico in extra time..pure magic
joe Cole’s wonderful goal against swedes
that 24 touches- goal from arg against Serbs

Worst:

-Saudi keepers slips against ukraine, dumba$$ couldnt stand his ground
-Holland and Portugal players wrestling in a match
-Czech’s defeat against Ghana and Italy when Nedved was probably seen for the last time.
-Gerrard missing a penalty and England crashing out
-Argies showing what sore losers are they. They should learn a lesson or two from Germany.

more to come…

Re: Best/worst moments of the worldcup

Klinsman giving all the German players a chance to play in their third place match, the German team playing an excellent match and wooping to the Portugese (Ronaldo nearly in tears :) ) and everybody being deleriously happy .... was one of the best games for me to watch.
