But in a way we'll all be punished, deprived of the languid grace of Patrick Kluivert, the quick thinking of Ruud van Nistelrooy, the locomotive energy of Marc Overmars and the ice-cool defending of Frank de Boer. Other missing names from the Korea/Japan roll call were more predictable?but not any less disappointing. Classy Ghanaian defender Sammy Kuffour, scorer of the only goal in last week's Inter-Continental...
