france outplayed italy for the whole of the match, with the exception of a phase of the first half. they were the better team.
on the other hand, you have to give the italian defense credit for holding off the attack they came under in the second half and during the extra time.
like the rest of the planet, i am curious about what prompted zisou to flip out. i suspect we will never know.
i find it difficult to say anything nice about italy's team though: i thought they were awful in the final in general.
as usual, the officiating was a joke.
ah well.
