ITALY-1 1-FRANCE
ITALY WINS 5-3 ON PENALTIES!
Why Zidane why!?
THE FINAL DAY REPLAYED: Fabio Cannavaro, a player who has belied his diminutive stature with some giant performances this past month, fittingly closed the 2006 FIFA World Cup™ by holding the biggest prize in football aloft. Fireworks proclaiming a fourth FIFA World Cup for Italy exploded into the black skies above the Olympiastadion as the Azzurri party began, leaving France – and a disconsolate Zinedine Zidane – to their own thoughts.
What an occasion the 18th Final produced with excitement at the start and incredible drama at the end as Zidane, on his farewell to the game he has dignified for so long with his graceful skill, was shown the red card. On it went to a penalty showdown and five unerring Italian spot-kicks delivered them the title of world champions, with David Trezeguet the luckless player to miss. With Fabio Grosso converting, his country edged one Trophy behind Brazil in the pantheon of FIFA World Cup winners.
Zidane will remember this night for as long as he lives. France had promised to repeat their success of 1998 for their retiring captain and only he will know what possessed him when he thrust his forehead into the chest of Marco Materazzi. Zidane had to go, accompanied down the tunnel by the glare of thousands and thousands of flash bulbs and the tears of the legions of French supporters.
“Allez les Blues” they had chorused again and again. The Blues came through all right but it was the blue of Italy that held sway. France were wearing white but what colour they added to the occasion with their stirring comeback after Marcello Lippi’s side had threatened to put a stranglehold on the game.
Moment of the Day
Mauro Camoranesi consoles David Trezeguet
Trezeguet's pain now mirrored that of the famed Italians, Franco Baresi and Roberto Baggio, who had missed in 1994 and handed the FIFA World Cup to Brazil in the first, and hitherto only, penalty shoot-out in the Final. At the end his Juventus team-mate Mauro Camoranesi went to him and hugged him in sympathy.
What a start we had with Thierry Henry’s first touch resulting in a heavy collision with Cannavaro. As he lay prostrate France wondered if their hopes were about to be stilled as well. The stretcher was called but their three-goal marksman was able to continue.
Henry’s next involvement was to head on Fabien Barthez’s long kick, prompting Florent Malouda to accelerate into the heart of the Italian rearguard where Materazzi brought him down. Zidane’s seventh-minute penalty was nonchalant, a featherweight chip coming down off the underside bar and only just over the line.
At a stroke Zidane joined the list of players to have scored in more than one FIFA World Cup Final - a list that also includes Pele, Vava and Paul Breitner.
Player of the DayIt caused barely a ripple in Italy’s assured stride. Their passes were sticking, their tackles hitting home. Andrea Pirlo and Gennaro Gattuso had established command of midfield while down the right Gianluca Zambrotta and Camoranesi combined impressively.
It was Camoranesi’s persistence and tight control near the touchline that forced the corner that yielded the 19th-minute equaliser. Pirlo’s delivery was inch-perfect and Materazzi powered his header home.
Just at that moment the sun had reappeared from behind a cloud to throw light on Italy’s spirited recovery and stoke up the temperatures inside the arena. Henry began to emerge as a key performer, seemingly impossible to shrug off the ball, and that also brought the best out of the dynamic newcomer Frank Ribery.
France came close on several occasions and in extra time Zidane would have scored with a header had Buffon not denied him. The night was soon to take an even more devastating turn for Zizou, a moment of madness ensuring that his retirement began at least nine minutes earlier than it should have done.
Goal of the DayTrezeguet’s miss meant that as Grosso stepped up for the long walk from the half-way line the world was in his hands. A no-nonsense left-foot strike into the right-hand corner of the net underlined the contribution the Palermo defender has made to the Italian cause this past month. After a gap of 24 years they were world champions once more.
GERMANY-3 1-PORTUGAL
Germany shrugged off the disappointment of their semi-defeat by Italy to claim third place at the 2006 FIFA World Cup™ by beating Portugal 3-1 in Stuttgart on Saturday, 8 July 2006.
Bastian Schweinsteiger enjoyed a night to remember in the hosts' farewell match at these finals, scoring twice in the second half as Germany finished the tournament with the bronze medal - and 14 goals to their name, three more than any other team with just Sunday's Final to play.
Schweinsteiger opened the scoring with a swerving shot from distance after 56 minutes and five minutes later the same player's low free-kick was diverted into his own goal by Portugal's Petit. With 12 minutes remaining Schweinsteiger struck Germany's third goal with a fine effort into the top corner before two Portugal substitutes conjured up a late consolation for Luiz Felipe Scolari's side.
Luis Figo, on his final appearance for his country, sent over a perfectly placed cross for Nuno Gomes to head past Oliver Kahn, denying the German goalkeeper one last clean sheet before he too bowed out of the international arena.
The match:
5': The first chance of the game fell to the hosts. Bernd Schneider whipped in a free-kick from the right and it was headed down by Christoph Metzelder into the path of Sebastian Kehl who fired the ball narrowly wide from just inside the area.
8': Schweinsteiger played in Miroslav Klose with a fine through-ball, but the striker hit the side-netting with his right-footed effort.
15': Simao Sabrosa found Pauleta with a fine pass but with only Kahn to beat, the Portugal striker fired the ball straight at the German goalkeeper, back in the side in Stuttgart in the place of Jens Lehmann.
20': Kehl's dipping shot from 20 yards almost caught Ricardo off guard, but the Portuguese No.1 did extremely well to tip the ball over the bar.
25': Podolski, awarded the Gillette Best Young Player award the day before this match, stung the palms of Ricardo with a powerful left-footed drive.
31': Deco was allowed time and space to turn and shoot in the area, but the German defence were thankful to see the ball sail over the top of the bar.
36':Simao was close to steering Deco's corner past Kahn, but the Benfica man missed the ball by a matter of inches and it flew across the face of the goal and to safety.
Goals galore:
51': Both sides struggled to create clear-cut chances at the start of the second half. Simao’s free-kick from 25 yards whistled just over the bar, provoking gasps from the Portuguese fans.
56': Schweinsteiger moved inside from the left-hand side and unleashed a right-footed shot from the edge of the area which deceived Ricardo. The ball flew through the keeper's arms to give Germany the lead. (1-0)
60': Klose’s cross from the left picked out Philipp Lahm at the far post and the defender hit a first-time shot which dipped over the bar.
61': Schweinsteiger's low free-kick was deflected into his own net by the unfortunate Petit. (2-0)
63': Meanwhile, at the other end, Kahn pulled off a fine save to turn Deco's goalbound shot around the post for a corner.
78': Figo almost made an immediate impact after taking the field, helping to set up Cristiano Ronaldo, who shot straight at Kahn. Play switched to the other end and Schweinsteiger scored a virtual carbon copy of his earlier goal, hitting an unstoppable shot past Ricardo from 25 yards. (3-0)
82': Simao's cross from the left was almost turned into his own net by Metzelder, but the ball somehow the ball stayed out of the net. In the same minute, Ronaldo's swerving free-kick almost deceived Kahn, but the veteran keeper was still able to save despite initially diving the wrong way.
88': Figo delivered a great ball into the box and Nuno Gomes was left with the easiest of chances to nod the ball past Kahn. (3-1)
In conclusion:
A great second-half display from Germany as Schweinsteiger breathed life into this encounter and helped the hosts to finish in third place, their best showing in the FIFA World Cup since lifting the Trophy in 1990. Portugal were unable to equal their feat of finishing third 40 years ago, but Figo served up a piece of magic in his final international appearance, as his inch-perfect cross provided the ammunition for Nuno Gomes' goal.
