If Zidane had still been around for the shoot out it may have been a different result.
Uncontrolled emotion and a questionable substitution strategy might have a been contributing factors to the loss for France.

Well at the end of the day a football match was won by a side that had a better overall strategy.
They were both very close in terms of talent but I have to say I was impressed by France since many of their player were getting on in age.
I give the the Italians full marks for coming back and scoring and then putting together a better list of players for the penalty shoot out. Many fans love that aspect of the game, I don't particularly but in reality a match can't go on forever until it's decided, so I will go with the flow on that aspect of the game.

Well... at least, the Ukrainian team were "kicked out" of the World Cup (no abbreviations!
) by the world champion of the year.
Still, my heart goes to ZZ. No matter what happened, it was, as it seems, his last world cup...
Back to better moments, so to speak, - i liked the previous match (Portugal - Germany) much more: no matter who won, that was the game!

Nothing will get you dead quicker than being deadly serious about yourself.
