Crazy Maltese Italians celebrate the World Cup Final victory
Originally uploaded by bennyonacid.

One final post from me - this is a shot of the celebrations in Marsascala (Malta) when the Italians fluked the World Cup Final.

I'd have had $320 in my pocket if France had won.

Maltalia

The streets went wild with an awful lot of unnecessary honking last night as the Maltese-Italians celebrated their very lucky win.

I thought France were good.

Mandy and I liked Zidane's headbutt. Silly way to leave your last International game, but I'd like to find a replay of that on youTube.

Yes mr telepathy, that's it for another WC blog. The next question is when shall we start the one for 2008? Or perhaps we should practise with a Euro'08 effort as well.

Argentina 6 Serbia & Montenegro 0
Spain 3 Tunisia 1
France 3 Spain 1

Thanks.

By the way, I tipped Italy before it all began, not that anyone remembers.

Portugal disqualified

It's alleged that one of the Portuguese football players failed a drugs and alcohol test after the match. If this is confirmed as positive, under World Football Federation rules, paragraph 6 sub section 2e, Portugal will forfeit the quarter final match and England will play France in the Semi Final on Wednesday.
