2-1 to England, a few minutes after Owen had given England the lead, the ball fell to Scholes inside the Argie box, flick of the right boot, pulls the ball a few inches wide of the bottom right post.
3-1 would have almost certainly killed the game and seen England through, who would then have beaten the Dutch with relative ease like they did in 96, followed by teaching the Brazilians a lesson in the semis (Ronaldo? Fat and useless back then) and then an easy 3-0 win against the French in the final on their home patch (Just like the rugby)
Not quite as obvious as the Del Piero misses in 2000, but equally hard to stomach.
Decided because the majority already on here are being bias that no point breaking a tradition - Im going Scholes for the fact he's never been relegated into the second division, never had an agent, and never grown ridiculous facial hair
Keep on dreaming...
And didn't Scholes have a ginger beard/stubble? That's pretty ridiculous. Plus he has ginger pubes and has been caught with his bollocks hanging out.
Scholes' ginger facial hair was of a man who couldnt give a monkey's scrotum what he looked like or what people thought of him. It was as if he had forgotten to shave.
Del Piero's facial hair was, well, so typically ITALIAN. You could just imagine the fella spending longer infront of the mirror than his missus, pruning his silly beard.
Then out onto the scooter, riding around cobbled streets gesticulating at other road users and hooting his horn and shouting "ciao bella!" at every half attractive female. Not that Im prone to stereotyping mind. Great player despite that
Scholes is just the archetypal old school footballer - where it was about the football and not about the style or image. The man has never had an agent for Christ's sake.
Luso - Scholes would have been a disaster abroad. You ever seen him try and tackle? He would have spent more time in the stands than on the pitch with those stricter continental referees
Scholes was GINGER. He should've shaved his head and his beard and even his pubes because ginger hair just looks silly. Obviously he couldn't give a monkeys scrotum, but he did feel the need to show the world his own scrotum.
At least Del Piero's facial hair actually looked good and was not ginger!
Del Piero is a gentleman, not some sleaze like Grosso or Materazzi.
Scholes is quiet and keeps a low profile (probably because he's so embarassed about being ginger), but he acts like a c**t on the field.
Del Piero's facial hair never looked good. Unless attempting to look like a 16th century Viscount is the definition of "good", inwhich case I take it back.
If Scholes gave a $h!t that he was ginger, he would have topped himself years ago. The fact that with such a horrific physical dysfunction he has gone onto become a top class football only goes further to proving why he is one of the best of his generation. Add to that the humiliation of the World seeing his scotch eggs and you have further proof of a man who is so totally dedicated to his sport that nothing else matters.
Del Piero might be a gentleman, but he plays like a fairy and has almost certainly had bumsex with another man. If not that, then he's definitely tried having intercourse with a frozen supermarket chicken.
Those, in my eyes, are perverse acts of nature as a devout Catholic he should have at least used the pull out method. FAIL
