Kickoff to the final whistle!

Brazil has gone home to boos, Germany for its performance has got some kudos. The old men from Les Bleus go home with some amount of vindication. The Pizza boys from Italy have made their country proud once again after 24 years. Miroslav Klosed the Golden Shoe for himself, while Brazil and Spain played fair and Zidane got the golden ball and a red for his head.

There are some fallen stars who didn't quite shine and there were some rookies who will make 2010 enjoyable to watch. The afro drums will be in full swing four years from now. Maybe we will have a non euro / latin american country winning the football mega prize.

Finally my sleepless nights are over for this year. Interest not waning I'll be there four years from now. Till then let's play ball.
