football fever

if there has to be a game that is as undecisive and furtive as future is,then without no doubt it has got to be football .

i was watching the france vs spain match today and was it a treat for the football fans galore.i was unable to catch the start but found it to be racy till the end.every moment spectated wonderful display of skill.

the stadium echoed with the chants of the fans and sweat poured off the temples of the coaches,each of them yelling out instructions to god knows whom.the expectations and the dismay of the coaches was too good to miss either.this match also marked the last match for zizou(i think).this guy is god for the french and it is a well known fact.

the spainards scored through a penalty shoot early in the match.this seemed to deter the french or so the spainards thought.striking back the french impaled the spainard defence and scored the goal just before half time.

second half and the tension was tangible,the atmosphere electric.both the teams were even and hence one had to score to edge out a victory,who was it going to be was the question repeatedly put forward by the commentators.

then came the header by viera of the zidane free kick,which i guess was further nudged by the spanish striker and that lead to the second goal.

minutes went by ,till there was only 3 minutes on the clock.the french had just to hold on. the spainard offense was now coming out of their hibernation and tried to penetrate the french defense but in vain.

3 minutes overtime and at 92" struck the maestro himself with a goal and in style to make a score of 3-1.story over,the spainards could do nothing but mutely spectate the damage done by the french.

all in all ,it was a terrific match.100% entertainment.it had action and anguish .well, i for one caught on the football fever.

well i am going watch the highlights now.

good day.
