Monday morning.
This is your town. This is your station. This is Waitly. Good morning! If you didn't start off supporting Spain in this World Cup final, by the end we were surely all unified, barracking against Argentina. It's hard to think of a performance quite so ugly and cynical as what the defending champions brought to this showpiece game. Ill-tempered doesn't scratch the surface of the temperament and tactics employed by the Argentines. Pushing and shoving, scratching and biting, bitching and moaning. But really, it seemed playing.
How did Gerard describe Spain’s World Cup win and Argentina’s behaviour?
When Spain finally and mercifully scored what ultimately proved the winner, it was from their 20th attempted goal. By comparison, Argentina had not registered a single shot on goal. Not shots on target, shots on goal. Their first came in the 120th minute and sparked the only minutes worthy of the climax of what has been a splendid tournament. Argentina's horrendous behaviour continued with various scuffles after the final whistle. You'd go as far to say as they brought shame to the biggest moment in global sport for the year. Spain are the rightful champions and should be celebrated. Argentina's reign over not a moment too soon on the evidence of this morning in a final that might best be remembered for animal on the drums in the halftime show.
plays it back to Poirot, lifts the ball into the back post, and there's a header laid back, and the shot!
There it is! There it is! Ferran Torres! Ferran Torres! He has launched it in with the volley, Ferran Torres! And they run off in jubilation, Spain! They take a 1-0 lead at the very start of the second half of extra time, and Ferran Torres has laced it in on the left boot, Thunders past Emiliano Martinez. And that is full time. Spain have done it. They have won the World Cup. The World Cup will be dressed in red again. They stepped into the ball ring and they took down the champions. La Furia Roja at their unbreakable best. Spain are World Cup champions. And the legends of 2010 have company. the reigning European champions on top of the world.
As it unfolded this morning here on SEN, they'll rejoice in Spain. They'll also rejoice in New Zealand. Ryan Fox, a golfer we know so well on these shores, winning the Open Championship with a birdie from 12 feet on the final hole. Fox was 52nd at halfway.
Why does Gerard call Spain the rightful World Cup champions after extra time?
before posting a magical 62 on Saturday and becoming New Zealand's third major champion on Sunday. It's a great morning to have the wisdom and experience of Robert Craddock at 10. Gavin from Albury was through early. Salute to Ryan Fox. A win for the nice guys in sport. He redefined moving day with an equal record 62, then saved the best for last with three perfect shots. If you have a spare five minutes today, Ryan's 18th hole is definitely worth a watch. And here, here. Hear, hear. It really is. He strides with purpose. He has no delays for dramatic effect. And he is now a major champion. Our Mondays start with your snap judgements. The Belgravia Apparel Open Line 1300 736 736. Belgravia Apparel delivers elite football teamwear solutions.
And the 40 Wings Temperatex 0433 98 1116 400. The difference is temper. And from a footy perspective, it must begin with a salute to Essendon. When all seemed lost, the Bombers posted their second win of the season and the first of Dean Solomon's two stints as interim coach.
This roar will be one of the biggest of the season. He takes up his full allotment of time. There it is. Howie. The Essendon Footy Club. They've come up with a miraculous win. The Bombers have won a game of footy. Remarkable.
Bloody good feeling. Yeah, our footy club's been on its knees for a period of time and the footy world's jumped on that and they enjoy us sitting at the bottom and we've felt that and we don't like that. So to push back a little bit and get one win, albeit one win, I'm just really happy for these players. I mean, there's nine players in the first 18 months of footy. Like, it's a young group. It's a group full of spirit and character. And to get reward today, I'm just so happy for them. But it's been tough.
