World Cup

Well…the World Cup^TM has ended all the matches…and we already knew that Italy is the winner, but the World Cup^TM 2006 didn’t really impressed me much as a football fans, I can even say that this World Cup^TM has been so boring (well generally…), and I have the reasons why, those are :

- The world greatest players didn’t play as how they play usually. Ronaldinho, Messi, Stevie G, Lampard, Van Nistelrooij, even Ronaldo look poor while breaking the record for World Cup^TM goals.

- The teams that were good to watch going out early. I didn’t say that Germany, Italy, France or Portugal were not well-deserved their place in semifinals, but how about Argentina, Brasil, the Netherlands, England or maybe Spain ? they were pretty impressive in qualifications and preliminary round, but I guess they didn’t have what the semifinalists had…LUCK. :)

- The dive. I must say…Cristiano Ronaldo probably is the best in this..

- The referee. Some referee killed the game off prematurely, as in Italy v USA, Portugal v Netherlands, or a bit more general they should be keeping the cards on their pocket rather than easily showing it off to the players.

But…besides all those things above, it’s always fun to watch the World Cup^TM, and thanks to SCTV, which has provided us with the good coverage during the tournament.
