Just listen.
^^The Ivanisevic-Rafter Wimbledon win was a great one especially because it was played on Monday and it was general admission. So people who normally wouldn't get tickets queued from 2am to get in and it was loud!

OFF TOPIC
There is still no doubt in my mind that the game (as well as a couple other Korean games in that WC) was fixed. Italy had good goals called back, Totti got a red that was undeserved, and the reffing in general was just terrible.
I hate that game.
