what did I say??

WIN AGAINST BRAZIL


What more can I say about Zidane... and what more his achievements after that game with Brazil?? To me personally... he has bypassed Maradona as the second best footballer ever in the history of this beautiful and crazy game... of course Pele is still No 1.

When it comes to football, it takes 11 players to win a match and thats what Zidane does... he inspires the rest to play like him.. if not better. Makalele, Viera, Henry, Gallas and the upcoming Ribery... are motivated by this amazing genius and God given grace. When France plays well as a team... there is no stopping them.

The next game is gonna be very interesting and close... Luis Figo and Zidane are peers... and share great similarity in many ways. They are about the same age (6 months apart)... and both have been voted best player in the world. The World Cup as we are seeing is not for boys or pretty faces... not for crying metrosexuals like Beckham or babyfaces like Messi. Its for real men.. and men of honour. These older men are working harder on the field and experience does count at the highest level of football... the World Cup. Both players were brought back from retirement to build a better team... and look where they are now... the semi-finals... would anyone have guessed this??? Brazil and Argentina out... France and Portugal in. It shows football is not about individual talent... or greatness... its about team work and the whole team united.. in spirit and vision.






France will win.
