Goooool!
Two absolutely terrific goals from this weekend's World Cup. I still think soccer isn't as great as the rest of the world seems to think it is - too much of it is running down the field and falling down - but these two goals sure are compelling.
First, Argentina's Maxi Rodriguez scored what will almost certainly go down as the goal of the tournament in overtime agianst Mexico. Off his chest. Off his foot. Over the goalie. Under the crossbar. In. I mean wow.
Argentina's Maxi Rodriguez wins it in the 97th minute.
Second, David Beckham - Tracy's favorite soccer player - proved that he still has a little magic in his right foot with a beautiful goal on a set piece in the 60th minute against Ecuador.
Beckham bends it like - well - Beckham.
Both of these were game winners. And both are pretty amazing testaments to why we watch. Brazil-Ghana and Spain-France are on tap for tomorrow. I don't think you want to miss it.

Love the embedded youtube, I got to see the fabled goal! Nice timesaver.
