    Not necessarily, no.

    If you want a much better example of that from this tournament take a look back at Govou's miss in France's first match.

    Actually have have made a great point.
    I would love to see more action taken in any of the games, they don't even use video footage in a situation which cause a shit load of controversy. FIFA need to step up.

    I think it's easy to say that Ghana didn't deserve to win. Uruguay is a better team, but unfortunately they will lose to Holland.

    I also think that Argentina, as well as Spain, will win today. From there, it is hard to say who will win between those two, but I'm going to say that Spain will in Extra Time.

    He took a penalty after that, and if he had missed that too, they probably would've killed him back home.

    If I played at a world cup, missing a chance like that then a penalty in one match, chances are I'd skip going home... I'd probably just emmigrate to somewhere where they don't watch football haha.

    did you see the last minutes of yesterday's match? ghana vs. uruguay... ghana had a 100% chance, a player from uruguay used his hand to avoid a goal. he got the red card, BUT ghana missed the following penalty... end of story is ghana loosing against uruguay after penalty shootout. even though they could've won in the last minutes of the overtime :lol: that was so hilarious...

    Yeah but England is one story, Nigeria is crazy. The guy who got a red card against Greece already got hundreds of death threats.

    I seriously don't think that to be the case at all.

    Suarez knew exactly what he was doing. hell, he's played football all of his life and he knows better than to handle the ball (on the goal line) in the dying seconds of a match to prevent a goal that would see his side exit the world cup. I hate to see cheating, and I hate it even more when chests win. It makes a mockery of the game in my eyes.

    Germany lead 1- 0 3 minutes into the game.
    I think that Octopus is going to be correct.

    I am so surprised that Argentina lost in such a manner. I didn't even think Germany would win. Oh well, it makes things more interesting!
