Official FIFA World Cup 2010 Thread

I've seen the reply a million times and still don't see a defender getting taken out by Edu. I do see a Slovenian bear hugging Bradley which in itself is a foul and a red card too because it is a scoring opportunity.

I didn't say Edu fouled him. I said he was taken out. If you look carefully one of the defenders gets his shirt pulled is on on the ground when Edu scores. It's not Edu committing the foul

Yeah I know there is bad refereeing in every sport and we have to live with it, still doesn't mean it's not shitty.

Then you'll understand that ranting about it is pointless. Think yourself lucky it was just incompetence. Our South American, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian friends have to deal with corrupt referees on a weekly basis.

Oh and just because I am American doesn't mean I don't watch football. I watch the UEFA championships league every year I wish football was bigger here.

I refer all complaints about the use of the word futbol and its highlighting to DFX. That bitch. You know he will moderate in your favour for bestiality porn, right?

You're right it is time to move on and I hope the US can stay focused on Algeria. If we beat Algeria we are into the next round. Let's just hope they play with the sense of urgency they had in the last half of the Slovenia game

[Jaiden]

lol. You guys are new to the world of football refereeing otherwise you'd not be getting upset. Bad decisions are made. Suck it up. I had to when Pedro Mendes was denied a legendary winner at Old Trafford. There were Americans pushing and shirt pulling as well as Slovenians.

EDIT: There was a Slovenian taken out who would have gotten the ball before Edu. That's the foul that was given.


I see what you did there.

Stupid Dutchie, learn to spell.

Sonofabit.... - thsv

Am not new to football/futbol refereeing at all, its just that as much times as I looked at that replay I still don't see any foul at all. But am over it all I care about right now is that they beat Algeria and Brazil beat Ivory Coast.

Yeah man, I've heard stories about corrupt refs in the Spanish and Portuguese leagues. What do you expect Europeans love their football.

Yay, Denmark won. That means we are the first country to place themselves for the last 16 \o/

Edit:

And the unexpected happened, New Zealand tied against Italy. Making Netherlands - Italy a very likely match in the round of the last 16.

[Arhazivory]

Brazil won~! As expected.

And the match between Japan and Denmark will be quite interesting as they battle for the next top spot. Heh...things are getting so much more interesting.

I know.. and thats what I hate about it. everytime when we are matched against Italia, " those Italian tomatosauce M.. fckers " are somehow playing very well :S

- But this time, when Robbin is back in game,.. I hope we're gonna OWN their asses.

Robbin and Batman? Yeah, you can't lose with those two.

[[JUiCE]]

WTF what that shit on the Brazil game. It was Kader Keita's fault for not looking where he was running. Kaka was just holding his ground, not like he hit Keita at all, Kaka's elbow barely, BARELY tapped Keita's chest, and he screams like a little bitch while covering his face, as if Kaka had elbowed Keita's face. That's straight up bullshit, because of that, Kaka got a second yellow card and won't be able to play against Portugal on Friday. I hope Brazil DESTROYS Portugal.

Just look at him, he even looks like a douchebag.


And also, i know it happened already, but what the hell was that with the US game. US was robbed from it's victory. That's also bullshit.

Yup, I'm guessing a 50/50 chance of beating them.

We don't do well against teams that don't want to play football. They will most likely put up a strong defence, and neutralize Robben and van Persie. And then wait for a counter and hope to win with a lucky 1-0.

I am truly amazed about the players characters - the way everyone is faking fauls on the pitch is for us sooooo damn obvious and ridiculous but not for the ref who buys all that crap. I personaly think that crap is cheating.
