Even fat Ronaldo is better then 95% attackers in this world cup.Face it, he is a legend

Ok, i'm not a Brazil fan.... but cool it with the Ronaldo jokes. Beckham's much more deserving...


I'm just worried about the possible Germany-Argentina clash. That'll be a sight to see.

That's what I'm talking , people can call him and more whatever they want , If he keeps on with goals , he may be still below his weight , but still people will have to swallow that he is the top scorer ever of the WC

If there's some justice , He will be given a statue

the 2nd Swiss goal

awful ref decision the linesman had his flag up.....how the hell can the goal count???

And there's now the possibility of Brazil's Revenge of 98

It seems that the referee thought the Korean defender kicked the ball back, hence no offside. I haven't seen a replay slowly enough to be able to tell.

I agree.

And look at this:

Schwitzerland - Ukraine

France - Spain. Shouldn't take place so early in the tournament


Well, I guess France only have themselves to blame. Nice to see that they've finally decided to enter the game, though.

The Korean was the last one who touched the ball, so no offside. The referee was correct.

 

[guill]

yep france will go out.

Keep dreaming dude.

The Korean defender did kick the ball back, so it was not an offside (plus, the referee was Argentine and we are always right... ). The assistant only had his flag up because he did not see the Korean defender touch the ball.

Good call. And, as usual, awful commentary by the ESPN guys saying that it was the wrong call. As usual, the U.S. commentators do not have a clue about football.

 

[the rockin edge]

The espn comentators are complete idiots i never pay any attention to what they say.

but the linesman put his flag up....the Koreans saw that and stopped defending. Once he puts the flag up the play has been altered.

bad decision by the ref, even if it wasn't offside.

Bad decision by the Koreans.

Until you hear the whistle blow, the game is not stopped. The referee has the authority to continue the game regardless of what the assistant says. By stopping the game, the referee would have altered the game in favor of Korea, even though there was nothing wrong with the play.

So the Korean team is at fault for not paying attention to the referee.

Tunisia was robbed too this afternoon.

This seems like an important point. Thanks for clarifying.

 

[U2Man]

He was off side.

99.99999999999999999% of all refs would have used their whistle. No wonder the Koreans stopped playing.

He was not.

No wonder the Danes have not won a World Cup.

 

[J_NP]

Luvin’ the World Cup so far. I don’t come here much because of my schedule I’m watching most of the games a few hours late, so I don’t want any spoilers. The standard of the commentators here has improved although they are still a long way from where they should be, and two. Aside from one group they would all be better off tf the '2nd guy' was to swap with the 'main guy'.
They really do miss the subtleties of good midfield play. I remember the last WC some wanker was on about an 'Upsy-downy'. I still haven’t sussed out what he was on about. My prediction:
If England score more goals than the opposition until the end of the tourney, they will win.
Off to the pub – ‘night.

Even coldplay are supporting us cause we're awesome chris martin changed the lyrics in Politik in brisbane last night to something about Harry Kewell.

 

[U2Man]

He was not.

True. We stick to the rules and never use hands to score decisive goals.

 

[Zoots]

U2Man, where the hell have you been? :heterosexualmanhug:

 

[Zoomerang96]

nice to see france play up to their potential today.

good games by viera and and henry... it's almost as those two are GUNNING to play together again.

 

[U2girl]

Koreans got robbet at the second goal, IMO that was offside.

Just got back from a week in sunny Ibiza, the commentators on Spanish tv are fabulous, couldn't understand a word they where saying, but for adding atmosphere to a game they make old motty sound like he's giving a speech in the house of dinosaurs(lords)
