Summary

In 2006, Italy beat France 5-3 in PKs to beat France. Zinedine Zidane was given a red card late in extra time for head-butting to Marco Mattarazi. In 1932, New England got its first football team when George Marshall was awarded a franchise to play in Boston. They spent five years there before moving to Washington D.C. In 1978, the Houston Aeros of the WHA folded. In 1949, Bobby Locke won the first of his four Claret Jugs as the winner of the Open Championship.
