Yeah. It was rock solid the first two days, and now it's just out of control. They really need instant replay challenges, but then matches couldn't be fixed, and that would make FIFA sad.
ridiculous, this ref should be sent home like the one who disqualified usa's goal. if he had a doubt - he should have consulted the linesmen and 4th ref before approving the goal. otherwise - he shouldn't have said a word. deff not ask a player. "oh yes, mr. ref, i handballed it, totally, dont give us the goal!"...
kaka red card was correct imo. should have been sent off earlier already when he pushed/kicked keita away, but got away with a yellow card because keita wasn't acting hurt.
oh and I completly agree that Kaka red car was correct. The second yellow card is wrong, but he surely should see a direct red card on the first situation, agression is agression, no matter how hard it is.
I thought Portugal played terrible to what they could play the first half, then when i checked back in the 2nd they were winning 7-0 so they corrected me there
not so sure about that :P
i expect spain, chile and switzerland to end up with 6 points each, and goal difference will decide who advances.
and spain hasn't won against chile yet :P

The first touch yes, the 2nd was definitely not accidental.
Edit: oofff, Portugal thrashed NK 7-0. That was great soccer, and then it just got painful. :poly122:

Vitor: Maybe, but there was just an awesome solo effort in the Spain game.

Im calling it. SA will win b 3 or more goals. Should have gone and bet on this....There has never been a host nation kicked out from the group stage.
x2!!!
Germany England if we win tonight.
Funtimes.
(germany game)
Very, very well played.
Now that my team's out I need to find another to go for.
any bets?
Will be a great match against Germany for us, may the best team win
i am officially going for new zealand. (they made it through right? or didnt they?!)
Always nice to see football players who are happy about a draw.
Their coach didn't shake hands with Slovakian coach, would have never picked Italy to be sore losers!
Cameroon is out and Netherlands is already through so meh. The Denmark Japan game will be good as both are in 2nd right now.
