Yesterday, the international governing body of football FIFA gave its decision regarding the controversial World Cup final incident that led to the ejection of French football superstar Zinedine Zidane from the final match between France and Italy. After an investigating on the headbutting incident, FIFA bans Zidane for three games and fines him 7500 Swiss francs (£3260) for headbutting Italian player Marco Materazzi while the latter is suspended for two matches and is fined 5000 Swiss francs (£2170) for provoking Zidane.

Sunday, July 9, 2006, all eyes were glued to the television as people await the results of the 2006 World Cup Finals. Just ten minutes remaining in the second extra time, French football star Zidane and Italian player Materazzi got into a verbal fight inciting Zidane to head-butt Materazzi. Everyone is shocked by this incident especially that it was Zidane’s final game before ending his 18-year career as a professional football player. 2 days ago, in a TV interview with Canal Plus in Paris, Zidane talked about the incident for the first time. He said sorry, but he didn’t regret doing it. Continue reading "Materazzi Insulted His Mother & Sister, Zidane Explains"Posted by WALEG at 11:24 AM July 10, 20062006 World Cup Highlights
The results of the recently concluded 2006 World Cup in Germany were generally predictable, sports analysts say; nevertheless, this year’s grand one-month football tournament was unforgettable on its own. This year, Italy led by former player Marcello Lippi again makes history for the fourth time by defeating France with a score of 5-3 in an unforgettable penalty shootout. Germany, the host country of the 18th FIFA World Cup, ranks third while Portugal ranks fourth.

The ball of the World Cup 2006 is not like any previous balls, the Adidas Teamgeist has only 14 sewn panels compared to 26 or 32 sewn panels on old balls, making it far more smoother than ever before and it is also supposed to be the roundest soccer ball ever produced. That's not all, the new Adidas ball is also waterproof, thanks to a thermal bonding technology. The smoother surface of this new soccer ball gives it a more unpredictable trajectory in the air which makes it harder for goalkeepers to catch it. via: [ gizmodo ] Posted by WALEG at 05:23 PM June 06, 2006Germany vs Costa Rica & Poland vs Ecuador

Who do you think will win? - Germany By guest writer Mustafa Posted by WALEG at 11:31 AM May 29, 2006World Cup Germany 2006 Fever!
The biggest event in sports is on its way and it brings with it the usual media frenzy, football filled advertising, international rivalry, hooliganism, hormonal teenage girls keeping their eyes peeled for the fittest knees, colourful flags and every kind of memorabilia imaginable as well as the highs and lows of goals, winning and losing. Unfortunately only two arab teams made it into the 2006 world cup and guess what? they’re only in the same group (coincidence? you decide). so get ready to see tunisia vs saudi arabia on june 14th in a group which includes spain and ukraine (ahem, ahem, call me a cynic but i think the two teams which will go through are not going to be arab teams).
