Here, if only there was another goal to certify beyond scrutiny that France was indeed superior... I was losing my voice cheering for them along with other French fans at a packed café (caffè, i suppose, since it was an Italian joint in Little Italy), but a small part of me found itself siding with the on-air commentator, wishing for an equalizer during the 90, then another, non-penalty goal from Les Bleus to finish it off. Alas, it was not to be...penalty it was. Still, some really good plays: Barthez was impenetrable, Zizou is still full of tricks, and Ribery...I have never seen a man get up from a foul as fast as this hard-working man. A joy to watch. Anyway, in the excitement of it all, I got an idea to photoshop Les Bleus into a poster of the movie The Life Aquatic. The result: <a href="http://asocialstudies.wordpress.com/2006/07/05/lequipe-zizou-team-zizou/" rel="nofollow">Team Zizou</a>. I hope you enjoy it. :) I have to say I preferred the Germany vs. Italy game to this one, just for the sheer build-up leading to that crisp one-two punch at the
