  That was the World Cup that was
Hmmm, so the World Cup started out good but kinda fizzled out a bit.

Best game I thought was Italy - Germany in the semi.
Even though there were no goals for 118mins you could tell it was top class football.

Apart from that, I'm struggling to think of a game that you could say that about (ARG - Mex?).

Too many games were decided on penalties but the stadiums looked tremendous.

The biggest talking point is, of course, Zidane's headbutt.
I found a good video on youtube that shows the incident from a different angle.

1) it looks even worse
2) Matterazzi gives him stick all the way through the incident.

Some fantastic mashups also on youtube:
