Quote

-"The guy simply went ballistic and the Aussie defenders who were obviously now feeling the heat and strain of chasing the ball for a good 60 minutes had nothing to match this gladiators heart and skill. He dribbled them silly as his Jordanseque skull reflected the City of Bacolet floodlights." commentator during the U-17 WC
