Very true...

The main reason I had predicted the 3 x 2 score is because I thought the entire game would have been more open... At one point, I was fearing the dreaded mice game of 1 x 0 and then go hide in your hole...

The Ronaldo's misses and that cannon shot that hit the crossbar by Kleberson told me otherwise... but it did not happen until the second half.

As for Ronaldihno... at first, I had dismissed him as another super-star wannabe... I was mistaken and I believe he is going to develop into a great player...

It is true that he was physically out-played, (he has a slender frame), but as you say he may work on that part of his game... yet... his ability is perhaps not so much in scoring goals (although he is perfectly capable of), but more so in his strategic passes... too bad Ronaldo did not score in the first half, these would have opened up the game a lot earlier... Then you would have seen a different Ronaldihno... of course... all this are... arm chair speculations.

Strangest thing to see in a German team the control they had of the mid field, yet no conversion came through... (wheuuu -g)
