World Cup moments that weren't "in the script".

Here are some suggestions:

- Holders Germany losing to Bulgaria in the Quarter Finals of the 1994 World Cup.

- Salvatore Schillachi winning the Golden Boot during Italia '90.

- Zinedine Zidane getting sent off in his final match - World Cup Final 2006.

- Spain being the first team to exit this year's World Cup.

- France failing to score in 2002 and crashing out in the group stages, much like Spain.

- Suarez handballing Uruguay to victory in 2010.

- Brazil failing to win on home soil in 1950.

- Beckham finally losing his cool in 1998 against Argentina.

~ Whatever happened to Ronaldo in the '98 final.
~ Scotland winning the 2016 Euros with a 9-0 demolition of Germany in the final.
~ Greece forgetting they were meant to be the whipping boys in 2004.

Edit - Couple of Euros moments there and one fictional. My mistake. Just Ronaldo then. Seizures - what the hell happened to him? Was it just pure bad luck for him or was it stress related or what?

2016 Euros...final.
Gibraltar 3, Spain 0. That's if Spain turn up.

I actually dreamed the night before the 2010 final that Gibraltar and Spain had each other in the final and I think Gibraltar won.
If I have a dream like that I am putting a bet on the opposite as dreams have to be reversed.

-Ray Houghton scoring against Italy wasn't in the script

Wouldn't it have been Australia or at least a joint elimination?
