Hi, you're joining us just at the most exciting stage in the game! We've just seen an incredible play by top man Dean Whackerbacker, and now over to our guest here with me in the box: the Almighty himself, God.
God: Thanks, Bob. I think that was a great play as well, although I have a small confession to make.
What's that then Big Guy?
God: I know I shouldn't have, but I couldn't help just making that butterfly's wings flap in Venezuala, that caused the gust of air that kept the ball in the air for a few seconds more. My goof there, I'm afraid.
Heh. That's OK God, I'm a bit partisan at these big games myself...

Bang on the ball there. Except over here, if Michael Owen claimed that it was God who helped him sail that one into the net, then even ice-cool Des would probably start cracking up. And Jimmy would probably try to see exactly where god interferred by watching the replay's. And several millions watching in the pub would splurt beer out their noses, and make the universal sign of "wanker" in young Michael's face.
And the Sun would have a field day.
Oi, if there's something that can make a British citizen cringe, it's watching the Oscar's and hearing the words "I'd have never gotten here if it wasn't for my saviour, Jesus Christ. And Opium".
