WORLD CUP!!! RODRIGUEZ WINS GOAL OF THE TOURNAMENT AWARD!!!! Colombian star-midfielder James RODRIGUEZ has won the GOAL OF THE TOURNAMENT AWARD for the just concluded World Cup in Brazil. The 23-year-olds stunning volley in the Round of 16 game against Uruguay received the majority of the votes, from over 4 million FIFA users, with Robin van Persies ingenious header against Spain coming second. If you can recall, RODRIGUEZ scored both goals in his countrys 2-0 win against Uruguay in that very game last month, but it was his EXQUISITE opener that captivated those 70,000 spectators inside the iconic Maracana Stadium and the millions around the world watching. The midfield playmaker SUPERBLY chest-controlled a looping header from team-mate Juan Cuadrado before swivelling and unleashing an unstoppable effort that crashed in off the underside of Uruguay goalkeeper Fernando Musleras crossbar. The Real Madrid bound star becomes the 3rd successive South American winner of the award. At the 2010 World Cup showpiece, Uruguays Diego Forlan won the award for his breath-taking effort against Germany during their 3rd-place play-off encounter. While in 2006 Argentinas Maxi Rodriguez collected the accolade for his thumping volley against Mexico in their pulsating last-16 clash. This is the 2nd award RODRIGUEZ has collected for his World Cup exploits after winning the Golden Boot. I want to categorically state here that I also add my vote NOW to the votes that won RODRIGUEZ this award. For me, that GOAL was so TERRIFIC.... Dat GOAL too SWEET abeg :* :D CONGRATS James RODRIGUEZ! You actually won my support for you with your SUPERLATIVE performance at World Cup... Thumbs up (Y) Whats your thought on this?
