On British TV they showed yesterday that Zidane vomited on the field before taking the last second penalty against England which won the game.
Do you think this was due to the pressure on him to score? Beckham had missed a penalty earlier which ultimately cost England the match. Or do you think he is too experienced for such a thing to happen to him and put it down to heat and physical exhaustion?

I never noticed that...but it's quite disgusting. I'd say it was probably a bit of both. I still wish he had curled it wide tough.

If you have ever played a really, really, really hard game of soccer (football) before, then you will know what it is like.
It's bloody tiring!!!!
I'd say it was mostly due to exhaustion and fatigue, but maybe a little bit because of the pressure.

I think they should be playing these games a little later. The 5pm kickoffs tend to be much slower games because of the heat. Better atmosphere watching games at night as well! Most of the players in the tournament are not used to playing in anything like this heat.
