I know the World Cup doesn't directly relate to Nintendo, but there are a lot of World Cup video games, so this is fair game. Congrats to the victorious Italians and a job well done to all competitors in this year's cup.

For those of you who didn't catch it (what the heck were you doing?) Italy and France tied at the end of regulation and overtime at one goal apiece, and Italy beat France 5-3 in penalty kicks. Zinedine Zidane ended his career with a red card when he headbutted an italian player in the chest. Exciting match!
