Awards

Gorse Fox notes that Zinedine Zidane has been voted best player of the World Cup tournament and received "The Golden Ball". Quite fitting. He was superb, and even his head-butt was classy (maybe a Golden Helmet would be more appropriate?).
What really amused the Gorse Fox, however, was the statement:
And semi-finalists Portugal won Fifa's most entertaining team award.

He assumes this is "entertaining" as in "hilarious". After all, a charitable person would claim all of the dives and histrionics were for our amusement as they couldn't possibly have been taken seriously. GF wishes therefore to rephrase this as:
And semi-finalists Portugal won Fifa's most entertaining comical team award.
