Zidane Is Done! They said his career was over. They said he’s too old to play at highest level. Zidane proved his doubters wrong by catapulting his team past Brazil all the way to the semi-finals.

And today against Portugal he scored the goal via a penalty kick off Carvalho taking down Henry on the 33rd minute. He is outplaying his fellow legend Zigo who looked to have suffered an injury but is now ok.

The game started quick with Deco shooting at the goal on the 3rd minute that saw Barthez saving the potential lead for Portugal.

Game notes:

1. Change of possessions without a clear dominant team controlling the game
2. Christian Ronaldo displays useless array of cross dribble by his lonesome
3. Pauleta remains to be a ghost striker for the team.
