Oliver Kahn said he would give a chance to Lehman who is also a veteran, by this desition Klinsman decided to put Lehman on the goal, who had been given a good matches until now.\n\nMaybe Kahn would play the final(If they get there) or the match for the third place. And that would be his last World Cup match, and would fallow with a retirement with other veterans as:\nEdwin Van del Sar (Netherlands)\nPhilip Cocu (Netherlands)\nZinedine Zidane (France)\nand that is what I know so far!

He's already retired and past his prime age. He's been playing since the 1990 World Cup and has had ample chances to show what an amazing player he is. People will always remember him as "BatiGol" cos' he never failed to find the net. Now, he has moved on to give other promising players a chance to find the fame like he did. Crespo and Messi are some to fill the gap.

pathetic, regarded as one of the teams capable of challenging ARGENTINA & NETHERLANDS in their group but lost both matches. \n\nTheir coach, Ilija Petkovic has been sacked following their dismal show & he has been criticised back home due to his selection of players especially his son, Dusan Petkovic. he later withdrawn from the squad just before the start of the finals.\n\n2006 was their first & final appearance under SERBIA & MONTENEGRO, as the team will no longer exist after the finals. Montenegro has voted for their independence from Serbia back in May 2006. probably, two new teams: one is SERBIA & the other is MONTENEGRO will emerge as separate team.

I did not like how the crowd booed him when he exited the field during the Brazil - Australia match.  He deserves more respect than that.  He plans to retire after the world cup.  He has contributed greatly to football (soccer) and the popularity of the Brazilian team.  He was a key player in helping Brazil to win the last world cup.  In my books he is and will be one of the greats like Maradona and Pele.

He will not  play a match again until 2007.  Most likely a warm up for the Australian.  You will just have to look at his poster honey.

Roger Milla, of Cameroon, is the oldest player at the World Cup finals, when he played, and scored a goal, against Russia in the 1994 World Cup\n\nHe was 42 years and 39 days.

Playing keeper, he did not score any.  However he gave up a total of 2 - one to Brazil, one to Sweden.  He did shut out Scotland.  He did not play against Czecholovakia.

I don't see why it would be bad? He isn't retiring until after Wimbledon. when he does retire the German player Florian Mayer can have a chance next time.
