    Wow, what a feeling. I still can't believe how the whole match evolved.
    I feel bad that a champ like Zidane went out like he did.
    I think both teams played well.
    YAY ITALIA!
    I wish I knew how to do the colored animation too!

    I LOVE ITALIA!

    YAY for Italia!!

    I feel a bit sad for France, but OMG, I can't believe what Zidane did! He was known for being such a calm person, and he did that on his last match!

    Yes, so strange! No wonder that he got ejected, but not a way you want the world to remember you!

    Congratulations Italy!

    I feel bad for the French team, they looked really disheartened. If only Zidane hadn't had that moment of insanity...

    Through the entire match, I had the feeling that France would make it in the end. They just seemed to have more strength and energy left; Italy looked exhausted. Zidane's action broke the team's neck, I think...

    Well, this was a final appearance that will always be remembered. But I don't think he wanted to be remembered this way...

    I live one block over from New Haven's "Little Italy". There have been TONS of cars driving around the neighborhood honking their horns and waving the Italian flag. That's how I found out Italy won!!

    That game was intense. I think I went into labour twice.

    I just lost all respect for Zidane. I always had the impression he had a lot of class, but I think that headbutt ended it for not only his reputation of MVP, but for France's chances of winning. It broke their morale.

    The penalty kicks absolutely killed me, especially since Buffone wasn't saving any of them. But wowwww. Great finish for the Italians!

    I mean I couldn't help feeling sorry for France but then flashbacks of Euro 2000 came back and well, you know..
