Customer Reviews

Every goal from Germany 2006 is here.
Other reviewers have, rightly, pointed out this dvd`s many faults, but at least it shows all the goals from the 2006 World Cup, and that`s really all it promised. The footage is good quality, shown from the `normal` tv type viewpoint (I hate those films that keep switching to a worm`s eye view) and it is well laid out. (Any fellow football fan who has bought "Euro 2000, All The Goals," will know EXACTLY what I mean...) As a basic record of Germany 2006 it does the business.

Doesn't fully capture the spectacle
Virtually all the goals, as the title states, apart from early ones of the penalty shoot outs. Heavily distorted hospital radio standard of commentary for the group stages. Virtually no other action apart from the open play immediately preceding a penalty: that means no footage of any skills, nearly-goals or incidents including Rooney's exit or Zizou's moment of madness. Annoying decision of the producers to show the full-time score at the BEGINNING of each game excerpt. Add feeble graphics and Bontempi music and this all amounts to a rather modest package.

Show all goals but not all penalty shots after OT
The film shows all of the goals of the World Cup 2006 held in Germany. The film show the goals within a game of each group. One minus point - it does not show all of the penalty shots after overtime. It shows circa 3 or 4 including important miasses and the final shot. The index shows Groups a-c; d-f; G-H; 1/4 finals; semi-finals; and Final. There are extras - the best 10 goals and the best 10 saves. My only complaint is that they didn't show ALL of the goals - those of the deciding penalty shots. I highly recommend the DVD which is much better than "All the Goals" issued in Germany by the ARD. There they have all the goals BY nation not by game!
