FIFA World cup 2006 - The best world cup I've watched

The football Fever is finally coming to an end. This is one fever that I Dont want to get rid off. But, the tournament has already come to an end this Sunday. That was a very good finals between Italy and France. Italy played a good game against the French. And so was the fightback as well. Zidane's penalty shot was a wonderful goal. It was indeed sad that he had to get a red card on his last match in this career. Could' have kept his cool for few more minutes and that might have changed the result. But yes, the Italians on the other hand did play well to earn the well deserved trophy.
I'll have to wait for another 4 years to watch Brazil become the champions for the 6th time. But they, this is the best world cup football I've seen. It was wonderful the coverage was awesome. And the best part was the ESPN and Star sports channel were telecasted in almost all the towns possible to make the football-loving crowd happy. The 1 month tournament went so fast that I'm suddenly left with sleepless nights atleast till 1:30 AM to 2:00.
The next big show is in South Africa. And somewhere in the deepest corner of my mind, I hope that India will or rather should be good enough by then to atleast enter the world cup.
