France have booked their place in the 2006 FIFA World Cup™ semi-finals at the expense of holders Brazil, this after a Zinedine Zidane-inspired 1-0 win for Les Bleus in Frankfurt set up a last-four clash with Portugal.

Never mind, better luck next time mates

AndurionThat was kind of being rude to me. and why should I care about what happens in the world cup? Team USA did not make it and thats that. And also soccer isn't all about men anymore there are some good girl soccer players too. I was just trying to state a point.

He was just trying to say Woman have a part in the USA's football because they haven't got much to speak for when It comes to the FIFA World Cup  

So Brazil are out to France as well... Now who do I support? I guess its Germany who may take it home... I'm not sure, but England didn't play too bad really, what a match!

Haha, yeah.... Germany will win? Nah! Its Italy V France

We have no french members here, there all selfish, because they think everyone should speak their language; and they eat frogs.

Go Italy!! Its 1-1  

18 mins GOAL: Italy 1-1 France
Marco Materazzi atones for giving away the penalty. The Ex-Everton man climbs high to meet Andrea Pirlo's corner and power a header beyond Fabein Barthez. The tattooed defender points high to the sky and is mobbed by his team-mates.

19 mins: That goal means this is the first final since 1986 in which both teams have scored. It's bubbling up nicely.

Italy beat France 5-3 in a penalty shoot-out to win the World Cup after an absorbing 1-1 draw in Berlin.

Fabio Grosso scored the winning goal after France's David Trezeguet missed.

Playing his last game before retiring, Zinedine Zidane's career ended in disgrace after he was sent off for crazily headbutting Marco Materazzi.

Zidane had put France ahead early on with a coolly-taken chipped penalty, before Materazzi levelled with a header from an Andrea Pirlo corner.

The result caps an incredible period for Italian football, with the domestic game embroiled in a corruption scandal similar to 1982 when they last won the World Cup.
