Watch this man:
OK, let's face it, Franck Ribéry doesn't present the sort of eye-candy we expect from the World Cup, but what a player! As far as I'm concerned, he is responsible for France making it into the quarterfinals, and not just for his goal against Spain. From the moment he ran on the pitch during the game with Switzerland he has been making things happen for a team that was otherwise lacking in ideas and energy (and goals). He defends, he attacks, he assists, and now he scores goals. He will be big trouble for Brazil when they meet on Saturday for a rematch of the '98 final. Can't. Wait.
See the video highlights including Ribéry's great goal.
