France - Paraguay:1-0 Z, you said: "Paraguay reminds me of Uruguay, very tough on the defense, and somehow un-spectacular style, on the dry side, but.... frustratingly effective. It is the Latin American version of "cattenaccio" " Right on my friend. FINALLY France scored. What would Paraguay be remembered for in this WC? A truly remarkable defense and a true Bulldog goalie and an all alone out there in offense Benitez. Thank you very much, bye bye. This team reminded me Argentina's team in 1990 in a way...BORING BORING FRUSTATINGLY BORING AND EFFECTIVE ALMOST, they just had less than 10 minutes to go to penalties where the Bulldog would have won it. Shame for a South American team to play this way...I blame the French who were so frustatingly ineffective in attacking, chip chip chip in the middle. Heck, out of a hundred chips one finally worked! And why did the coach keep Diomede in the game for 77 minutes, he was a disaster. Oh, this game needed a goal, the way it went probably did not surprise anyone. And Djorkaeff should have won it earlier when he tried to dribble the last defender with the goal area being a meter or two away!!Aargh...This team will play much better when Zidane is back. Italy-France should be a classic. And FINALLY I predicted something right 1-0 France!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Could purething be kidding? If not you were too nice to him<g> I remember your posts to Valuespec, ehhr I mean Valueless. Good to see all these people posting now!!! Watch the Nigerians ATTACK the hapless Danes, I predicted 4-1. George
