Nope, not even Thierry “the Hand” Henry could salvage this one. Both teams played without inspiration, although Forlan did look like he was trying. No one stepped up. Ribery was lame. The French seemed content to pass the ball around without a plan. Another brilliant coaching job by Raymond “the worst coach” Domenech.
PS – in our opinion, the worst coach at the World Cup is Maradona, but let’s see if that changes.
