World Cup 2006 News

Germany´s Lukas Podolski has been named Best young Player of the World Cup. The 20-year-old Podolski has scored three goals in six matches so far and is quoted over at the BBC as follows:

I would have liked to have taken home the World Cup - but this is a great honour and is a great motivation to become more successful.

Tough call. Considered that there were others in the competition who might have deserved it as well. Fabregas is only one name. Podolski has been chosen in favor of Portugal´s C. Ronaldo because the portuguese winger was tending to act a little theatralic.
