FRANCE v. SWITZERLAND [0-0]

HIGHLIGHTS

This national derby between neighboring Western European effete arseholes hung in the balance through the half, then petered out to nil-nil in the end. Which is not to say Fabien Barthez didn't make things interesting with some characteristically questionable punches. Perhaps he was emboldened by his luck due to the post saving his Evangelista ass in the first half.

BOOOORING. So what do we talk about? What else? Zinedine Zidane. Zizou's magical, mystical maestro's comeback amounted to very little apart from a few inspired runs and a speculative ball or two. But still. That story? Euro 2004? Who else? Who else could have done that?
