Cup Final ‘bang’ was not quite what we expected!


WHILE everyone hoped the World Cup would fini.sh with a bang, we didn’t get quite


what we expected. A tournament that looked set for classic


status in the group stages tailed off in the knockout phase as fear of failure took hold. And after a dearth of final thrillers down


the years, dating back to Argentina’s dra­ matic 1986 success against West Germany, how we prayed that we would have a show­


piece worthy of the name. We needed an individual to light up the


magnificent Olympic Stadium in Berlin, or for a team at the peak of their powers to col­ lectively stamp their name indelibly in the annals of history.

J T l Sadly, what we did get was


the sickening sight of a true great damaging his legacy with an act of violence that left you empty inside, and a final that failed to catch fire, despite both teams scoring for the first time


in 20 years. Many observers, sickened by


the thought of what might have provoked such a vicious response from Zinedine Zidane, and the fact that the best team on the night lost on penalties, have, however, overlooked that Italy surely were deserved vic­


tors overall. A competition dominated, as


Michel Platini noted, by coach­ es, rather than players, was won by the best tactician in Marcello Lippi. His side, exhausted at the


end of a mammoth campaign, may have reverted to Italian type in the final and shown lit­ tle ambition in the second half and extra time. For the most part, they have


been the most expansive Italy we have seen in decades, and, paired with the best defence in the tournament, made for a potent force. Seven Azzurri players were


named in the 23-man All Star Team, Gianluigi Buffon - who also won the Lev Yashin Award for the best goalkeeper - skip­ per Fabio Cannavaro, for me, the best defender in the world, and the player of the tourna­ ment, Gianluca Zambrotta, Andrea Pirlo, Gennaro Gat- tuso, Francesco Totti and Luca Toni. A total of 10 Italian players


scored in the tournament, while Lippi’s men only conceded Cristian Zaccardo’s own goal against the USA and Zidane’s oh-so-cheeky penalty in the final. The best keeper, the best defence, arguably the best mid- field - and certainly the best midfield performance from Gattuso, Pirlo and Totti against Germany - added up to a fourth World Cup triumph. Some will say the Italians


were unimpressive up front, but Toni, Alberto Gilardino, Vin­ cenzo laquinta and Filippo Inzaghi all found the net, along with the more advanced Totti. Toni, in particular, was


unlucky. He came into the tourna­

r We are the areas only true repair ^ 0 and replacement specialist emergency service


years, and the Fiorentina marksman was as good a centre forward as any in the tourna­


ment. However, his two-goal tally


didn’t tell the story of his unselfish work, often as a lone forward, his bad luck in hitting the woodwork on a number of occasions, and the more greedy nature and poor choices of some teammates when Toni s had taken up a more threaten­


ing position. But one man stood out above


navaro. I ’m certain football fans


would rather see an artiste than an artisan winning the award. But for as good as Zidane


was against Spain and Brazil, providing the most memorable displays of flair and individual brilliance in the competition, he was invisible as France crawled out of their group. On the other hand, Can­


navaro produced a seven-game defensive masterclass that mer­ ited the title, to go along with his winners’ medal. Add Zidane’s upsetting


departure from the big stage, and there was only one winner in my eyes. To then be told the vote was


carried out at half-time in the final said all you have to know about FIFA, especially after Cristiano Ronaldo was farcical­ ly overlooked in favour of Ger­ many’s Lukas Podolski for the Young Player award. As annoying as some of


Ronaldo’s antics were in the tournament, he was surely the pick of the youngsters on dis­ play, given that Lionel Messi was not fully fit in the build-up to the tournament and strug­ gled for a starting berth in the Argentina side. Podolski was half of the best


strike partnership, along with Golden Boot winner Miroslav Klose, but was poor in Ger­ many’s first two games, and largely anonymous in the quar­ ter and semi-finals. But it was fitting that Ger­


many carried off a number of awards after a tournament in which they won over so many people of different nationalities with their hospitality and brand of vibrant football. As Noel Gallagher of Oasis


said in an interview on FIFA’s official website: “If I was in charge I'd have it (the World Cup) in Germany all the time and just be done with it!”

Clitheroe Advertiser & Times, Thursday, July 13th, 2006 13 A scenic trip through village’s rural garden gates


AN invitation to go “Through Country Garden Gates” in two Vaiiey viiiages was taken up by more than 1,000 visi­


tors. The annua! event in Bo!ton-by-Bow-


iand and Grindieton reveiied in giorious


weather. There were 25 gardens and aiiotments to visit and the churches in both viiiages aiso had flora! dispiays on different themes. Visitors couid cai! at Bo!ton-by-Bow!and Schoo! to have a took round the buiiding and see the


chiidren’s dispiays, based on nursery rhymes and stories featuring flowers such as “Jack and the Beanstaik” and Mr McGregor’s garden from “Peter Rabbit”. At St Peter and St Paui’s Church in


wm.


unlike other opticians, our 2 for I offer has 110 restrictions and no catches


the viiiage various organisations had created dispiays to ceiebrate “80 Giori­ ous Years of the Queen” with arrange­ ments depicting christening, the Gold­ en Jubilee, garden parties and the Royal Show, while at St Ambrose in


Grindieton there were flowers and pho­ tographs connected with church wed­ dings. The weekend finished with a Songs of Praise led by the Cobbydale Singers from Silsden. Proceeds will go to the two village churches.
