00:00The world, glittering playing days
00:04They've been dominant in most of their games in midfield
00:07And they've got the, probably the best player in the tournament in Zidane
00:12Italy, have gone about their job really well
00:14I think Xavi was caught in the chest
00:16This is a worrying start to the game here
00:21Maybe just time is the key
00:24Just took it on the chin
00:26To this game, of all games, to these Universities
00:29Good runners with the ball
00:39And the referee's given a penalty
00:41Goodness me, what a start we've had to this game
00:44Miluda down, Materazzi was the player with him
00:48And the Argentinian referee
00:51Has decided that that was enough
00:53On the spot
00:56Zidane
00:57Oh my goodness me
00:59It did cross the line
01:02How cool do you want to be?
01:07In the greatest game of all
01:09Zinedine Zidane scores a penalty like that
01:14Something that hardly any other player in the world would attempt
01:19Very cool
01:20Italy are going to have to come out on top
01:22Italy are going to have to come out and play now
01:28Played in by Sagnol and Buffon had to be quick
01:31That looked as though it might be going in
01:33What an eventful start it's been
01:39Swept in by Andrea Pirlo
01:46Ramirez, he got the shot that he was on his way
01:49Doesn't hang about either
01:50Pirlo stands it up, Materazzi meets it
01:54And the man who gave away the penalty
01:56Has equalised for Italy
02:04He leapt so high
02:07He points to the heavens
02:09And makes it Italy 1 France 1
02:12Well it's Patrick Vieira, he beats in the air
02:14He gets a run on it
02:16It's a brilliant header from him
02:19Jumps early
02:21It's a good job that Cameron Azee left the ball for Pirlo to take
02:25In for Pirlo
02:27Same idea
02:29Couldn't have counted this time anyway
02:32Well he's given a foul the referee against Materazzi
02:35He wouldn't play more than a minute when he went down early on
02:37But he's very much involved now
02:39There's Miluda
02:40Had to dig it out
02:42Bobbled away from him
02:46Nearly came on his way again
02:47Totte
02:48Totte went down, he was stumbling
02:50Tony's effort is blocked
02:52By Thuram
02:53A flurry of activity in the France penalty area
02:56All of a
02:58This time it's Tony's header that's off the top of the bar
03:02France having all sorts of difficulty
03:04From these Andrea Pirlo corners
03:08Again
03:10Henry
03:11It's a clever spin
03:12Fabio Cannavaro
03:13Or Miluda
03:14What have France got from Cannavaro?
03:16Miluda, what have France got from corners?
03:19The flat one that was flicked
03:21That's how to dress for the occasion
03:23All set then?
03:25As Henry sets off on a run
03:27And gets all the way through to shoot
03:29More of a pass into the gloves of Buffon
03:36Well Thierry
03:37Thierry Henry does really well here
03:38This is what you expect from him
03:40What a great challenge from Cannavaro on the edge of the box
03:42Locked by Gallas
03:43It was Cannavaro challenging
03:45There's Grosso but it won't come down
03:52It's well played down this left-hand side
03:56Henri
03:57He rode the challenge of Cameron Ace here
03:59And he gets by two more as well
04:03Turned behind by Zambrotta
04:05He's not hanging around with the corner
04:08That was Ribery
04:10France down the sides
04:11Pulled back for Henri
04:12Ribery is in the box with him
04:15There's Tony
04:18Perrotta
04:20Maluda over
04:22Here's Florian Maluda
04:24And Maluda is stopped by the challenge of Zambrotta
04:28There are a few in France shirt to ask the question of the referee
04:31But he made a very quick call, no penalty
04:34Ribery is coming across
04:35But the ball's behind him
04:39It's headed in
04:40Oh no, it is in
04:41From Tony
04:42Oh the flag's up now
04:44It's not going to stand
04:45And Barthez very quickly gets the game going again or wants to
04:51Henri
04:53Henri shuffled his way past Cannavaro
04:55But couldn't beat Buffon
04:57He won't be able to have done it a bit there
04:59He's going to get back now
05:01And that was speculative
05:02That was just a flasher from Maluda
05:05You're absolutely right
05:08France winners on home soil in 98
05:10Ribery has a go
05:13That was Diarra
05:15And that was not
05:18And that was Tony
05:20And
05:21It seems good against him anyway
05:23There's a
05:25Not a lot of room, quite a lot of movement now
05:27But it's too high for anybody
05:28Morgan Tussauds
05:30It's Pirlo who's gone for goal
05:32And Barthez wasn't 100% sure
05:34That it was missing
05:36And he strolls up to it very casually
05:39He wraps his foot round
05:40He hits it with a bit of pace as well
05:41I think he cleared the wall
05:44On such a small margin that he saw it late
05:50That's Gattuso being held on to
05:52Cannavaro can get it clear
05:53Zidane's got a bit of a problem here
05:56France are asking Pirlo to put the ball out
06:03Monterrey with a couple of good moments
06:06He's not done yet
06:08Samuel, time to set himself across
06:12Zidane
06:14Monterrey
06:15Trying to find Zidane
06:17Zidane
06:19That's going to go over
06:21They're not offering very much
06:22They might be
06:23Through the middle, over the top
06:25But there's no time for it
06:26Not in the 90
06:28For the fifth time
06:29The World Cup final is going to extra time
06:33France had the better of the second half
06:35Maybe also pushed a little bit more
06:37And created better chances to win the game
06:39As it is, Buffon was largely untested
06:44Setting the watch to zero
06:46Horacio Elizondo
06:48Stewart
06:49Might get a little bit testy
06:51But in actual fact
06:54Got through the gap
06:55Gattuso came back
06:57And squeezed him out of it
06:59Just on the right side of fair
07:02Hurt in the process, the Italian midfielder
07:04Well, for once, Cannavaro was beaten by
07:08Malouda on that occasion
07:09Gattuso coming back
07:10Ribéry
07:13Cannavaro didn't get that right
07:14Ribéry's poked it wide
07:18Huge moment
07:22Well, Domenech has brought him out to this left-hand side
07:25Three in the box for him
07:27Zidane
07:30What a stop by Gigi Buffon
07:33Good play
07:34Zidane
07:35Playing that little bit deeper
07:36Plays the ball wide
07:37Makes the right run into the box
07:39Gattuso
07:40Doesn't go with him
07:41And it's a good header as well
07:43Meets it
07:44Cleanly
07:45What a save
07:46Really had that
07:47That many touches of the ball
07:48There's not been that space for him to work
07:50His magic
07:52No goal
07:53In the first 15 minutes of extra time
07:55But Zidane came mightily close
07:59Don Verlaine
08:01Don Verlaine
08:06Two big chances
08:07One for Zidane with the header
08:08The other one
08:09For
08:10Franck Ribéry
08:14Domenico Rossi
08:15Has taken a whack to the side of the face here
08:21Free kick France
08:22And Machiavelli's in a hurry to take it
08:24Zidane
08:29And the attention is on Zinedine Zidane now
08:35What happened here?
08:37Oh goodness me
08:38Goodness me
08:41Zinedine Zidane just plants one into the chest of Marco Matarazzi
08:45The referee cannot have seen that
08:51Zidane took himself away
08:53He's having nothing to do with it
08:55And the red card is out
08:56And Zinedine Zidane's career is ending like this
09:01Sent off in the World Cup final
09:05Is there any provocation?
09:07A little conversation between the two
09:11But then something was said by Matarazzi
09:13That made Zidane see red
09:15They're now down to 10 men
09:17For something he didn't need to do
09:24Well there might have been
09:26Three red cards in the past in World Cup finals
09:28But nothing as sensational, as controversial
09:32A Roman gladiator
09:34He's been brilliant
09:38Raymond's had enough
09:42Malouda
09:43Will talk
09:46Off balance
09:48That man Matarazzi heads away
09:50And the World Cup
09:52Will be decided
09:53By a test of skill
09:55And nerve
09:56From the penalty spot
09:58As he gets ready to watch Fabian Vartes in action first
10:03Down the middle Perlo
10:05One out of one
10:07For the Azzurri
10:11Never like this
10:12He's done it now
10:13Emphatically
10:141-1
10:16Well they don't come much better than
10:23He's up to it
10:26Another substitute
10:29That one didn't cross the line
10:31Not like Zidane's early in the game
10:34That stayed out
10:35And it's advantage Italy
10:41Scores
10:43No keepers keeping that one out
10:46The defenders are doing it just right
10:51Long run
10:53Good penalty
10:54Vartes helpless
10:56Italy are so so close now
11:02Sanyo scores
11:03He went for the blast
11:05France are still alive but only just
11:08Fabio Grosso
11:10Has to do and that's all
11:12And Grosso has done that job
11:15The kick that means
11:17Italy
11:18Win the World Cup in 2006
11:32It's Fabio Cannavaro
11:34A world record
11:36It's Fabio Cannavaro
11:38A worthy World Cup winning captain
11:40Italy
