The Aftermath from the France Games
First off, thanks so much for posting all of the links in the comments after the games. I’ve had African Cup of Nations going on at the World Cup Blog main page. (And I’ve also had my first experiences liveblogging. It was more fun than I expected. Now I’m probably going [...]

If anyone else, like me, can’t find a way to watch the game, here are a couple of liveblog sites:

HELP!!! I cannot get ANY streams to work. I’d even pay, but nobody’s offering it. (The pay site doesn’t list Spain-France.) I have it showing up on one of the media player sites, [...]

Let’s Talk About Trezeguet
David Trezeguet.
Aside from Zidane, I can’t think of anybody associated with the France National Team who inspires such intense emotion. I myself get ferocious pain in my maternal area whenever I think about him.
Years ago we had goals, goals, goals! Now we have the insubstantial World Cup minutes, and that excruciating [...]
Menez! Clichy! Mandanda! Boumsong?!? The New List is Out!!
I have to go do African Cup of Naitons stuff for the next few hours and don’t even have time to go add in spaces in the names, but wanted to get this posted.

Nicolas Anelka just switched teams, and notched his first goal for Chelsea today. (Here’s the goal. Watch quickly, becuase these things never stay up for much more [...]
Highlights from France Morocco
Three thoughts after watching this video:
1) This really was a brilliant, high-energy game that would have been lovely to watch if I were a neutral. Too bad I’m not a neutral.
2) This defensive lineup might work with Coupet. It doesn’t work with Landreau. Where, oh where is Philippe [...]
France 2-2 Morocco
Lord, what a frustrating game. Watching it was like driving a Porsche that’s in desperate need of a tuneup. You know what it CAN do, but making it do it is another story.
We should have expected this, though. Domenech fielded a relatively young and inexperienced team that hasn’t played much [...]
