yes his replacement scored a goal. but anyone could have headed that in. i hardlly think taking Figo out is the reason they scored.

yes Figo's old and slower. yes he was tired as shit. but he's still one of the best players on the pitch, even in the 80th minute or whatever it was. pure irony that RIGHT AFTER Figo rips a shot to the lower corner that almost went in, the coach pulled him out.

Figo is a player maker. he's a leader. you don't take him out.
