An unlikely event took place at the local rugby club late last night. The bar was open, people were having take away-pizza and sipping beers, the big screen was showing a game. So far, so good. Although the ball was round.
A not-so-impressive number of ruggers were actually watching the footie WC final, the battle between the spanish matadors and the flying dutchmen. The game proved to be more interesting than the Spain-Germany semifinal but just as goalless. Despite a zillion yellow cards, missed goal opportunities (like, my tomato plant would've scored) and players falling, faking near-death experiences, several fans soon became more and more interested in the drinking and smoking going on outside. The only two who remained tense with anxiety until the end was Blondie and half-Spaniard Karlsson, both teary and shrieking with relief when, somewhere around the 117th minute, Iniesta finally nailed it.
Octopus Paul - Netherlands 1-0
