Brazil shuts Germany down, wins World Cup
Ronaldo scores two as Brazil earns record fifth Cup title
YOKOHAMA, Japan (AP) — The World
Cup of upsets and upstarts ended with a fit
ting champion and a rejuvenated superstar.
Ronaldo scored both goals to lead Brazil
to a 2-0 victory over Germany on Sunday for
the team’s record fifth title, capping a superb
tournament that helped erase bad memories
of his knee injuries and the team’s 1998
World Cup final.
“Today we lived a beautiful dream,” he
said.
The Brazilians won with a style and

artistry reminiscent of their past champions
and overcame the cool efficiency of the
Germans, who were undone by a blunder
from the world’s best goalkeeper, Oliver
Kahn.
Brazil, just months ago considered one of
the weakest teams ever from the country,
went 7-0 in the world’s most popular sport
ing event, playing in the final
for the third straight time. w '"HtaDI
Appropriately, the greatest
of all Brazilian players, Pele,
handed over the golden
World Cup trophy to captain
Cafu as fireworks and streamers flew from
a stage on the field and teammates bounced
up and down in a sea of silver confetti. ,
Pele then hugged and kissed Ronaldo,
who tied his national record of 12 goals by
scoring eight times in this tournament — the
most in a World Cup since 1970.
Thousands of flashbulbs went off as the
first World Cup in Asia ended in a much
more satisfying way for Brazil and Ronaldo
than in ’98, when he was ill before the game
and played poorly in a 3-0 loss to host
France.

“Everything changes,” Ronaldo said
through tears. “People said Brazilian soccer
was decadent and in crisis. But this will
prove that Brazil’s soccer is alive.”
Alive and beautiful, as it was for the
champions of 1958, ’62, ’70 and ’94. This
team wasn’t supposed to be as strong or
graceful or cunning as those. But it was every
bit as successful in its first
World Cup meeting with
Germany.
And Brazil certainly cele-
brated in classic Brazilian
style.
At the final whistle, every Brazilian
player ran onto the field carrying a flag or
draped in one. Goalkeeper Marcos, who
outplayed Kahn, kneeled in the net, his
body covered with his"country’s green, blue
and gold flag, as coach Luiz Felipe Scolari
ran to hug him.
With a sign in Portuguese saying, “People
of Brazil, thank you for the affection,” players
paraded before an ecstatic crowd that chanted
“Penatcampeao” (five-time champion) while

Kile will be missed by players, fans
L ong after baseball bids a
final farewell to St.
Louis Cardinals pitcher
Darryl Kile during next
week’s All-Star game, the
tragic loss of the 33-year-old
will continue tt> tug at the hearts of base
ball fans everywhere.
In a time when many baseball players
are known for using steroids and demand
ing huge salaries, Kile stood for what base
ball once represented.
Often the first one to the park and the
last one to leave, Kile did not see baseball
as a business. He saw America’s pastime
KEVIN ESPENLAUB
as an opportunity to use his
talent to help others and to
entertain the fans that paid to
watch the game.
Kile would spend hours
before or after a game taking
young players under his wing
and helping to develop their skills and
patience in a game where the next big star
is thrown into the pot as soon as possible to
boost ticket sales.
Kile took pride in working with younger
pitchers to help them adjust, and his work
has paid off for the Cardinals. Pitcher Matt
Morris, a Kile protege, is the staff ace and
will likely contend for the National League
Cy Young Award in the near future.
Unfortunately, Kile was not able to fin
ish what many believed was the project he
held closest to his heart at the time of his
passing.
Kile never believed that he did enough
to earn the amount of money that teams
offered him, and struggled every day to
return to the level of success he reached in
2000 when he won 20 games in his first
year with the Cardinals.
Battling injuries and a lack of confidence.

Mattiace wins St. Jude
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) —
Len Mattiace won for the sec
ond time this year as he rallied
from a seven-stroke deficit at the
start of the final round by shoot
ing a 7-under 64 Sunday to win
the St. Jude Classic by a stroke.
Mattiace, who won the
Nissan Open in February,
joined Tiger Woods (three) and
Phil Mickelson (two) as the
only multiple winners on tour
this year.
He had a mistake-free day in
a round where Glen Hnatiuk,
looking for his first victory,
blew a four-stroke lead.
Mattiace turned in a bogey-free
seven-birdie round that includ
ed five on the back nine and
three consecutive on Nos. 15-17
for an 18-under 266 total and
the $684,000 winner’s check.
Tim Petrovic had a chance
to force a playoff with a 35-
footer for birdie on No. 18, but
he missed just left for a 68 and
finished second.
