Default World Cup "Brazil"

Great game as Brazil captures the World Cup.
Ronaldo’s two second-half goals gave Brazil their fifth FIFA World Cup™ championship and firmly put the ghosts of the France 98 final to rest. It was a hard-fought and equally played match befitting a clash of world football’s biggest titans, but Ronaldo had the touch of greatness that separated the two teams in Yokohama, Japan.
Ronaldo also lifts the Golden Shoe with eight goals in the finals, three more than his next closest competitors, Rivaldo and Miroslav Klose. Both countries offered opposing but no less effective styles as each hit the woodwork once and created a fair number of chances apiece. The first-ever confrontation between the two teams was an entertaining and dramatic end to the Asian FIFA World Cup.

Redemption for Ronaldo and a party in Rio surely.

Default the first goal was special

Ronaldo steals the ball, nudges it to Rivaldo, who evades one guy, takes a deadly shot, low and a bit to the side. The keeper cannot hold onto the knuckleball shot and Ronaldo is right there to score.

The second one was a text book goal...

Germany had their chances, too....

HB, very happy....

If Wud cud, he wud
Oliver couldn't
So he's Kant

Ohhh, that's cruel for such an excellent player....
