World Cup

I take opposite view. Tech worked perfectly as ref gave the goal very quickly. Replays just backed up when and where the ball crossed the line.

Yes, worked perfectly in my view as well, the only mistake was to show the bit where the ball hit the post which confused the crowd and BBC commentator. Goal Line Technology is stupidly accurate and I have every faith that it works perfectly every time.

It worked perfectly, just a little confusing for poor JP.

Twice the goals of 2010 so far and no vuvuzelas!

Yeah, he made himself sound a right twerp IMO

The German fans seem to be right behind their team.

I can't work out if Germany look really good or Portugal look really bad?

During the half time analysis, just behind Cannavaro, there seems to be a bullet hole in the glass, just behind his left ear, right as we look at him!
Am I imagining this?
Adrian Chiles .......................... spot on. STOP THE BLOODY CHEATING.
Germany, possible champions?


Slime.

Same old Germany; winning with a bit to spare. They know what they have to do and they usually go out and do it.

Them or the Argies to win it.

I have no sympathy for Pepe. The man is a complete idiot.

 

[richy]

Muller wouldn't of felt that. Pepe's perm would of cushioned the blow

Rocks were thrown at the studio after the Brazil game by demonstrators.

Mueller yellow card for faking but definite red for that silly bloke with comedy hair. Chiles is right but whole ethos of game will have to change.

Where Portugal not at full strength ?

That's a pretty impressive win

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Sad that Muller simulated the foul but Pepe let his team down big time reacting like that. Germany looked efficient but to be fair Portugal were a spent force and going down to 10 and playing all the second half a man down was never going to be easy

 

[c1973]

They could and possibly should have been down to ten earlier (at the penalty). Booked for denying a goal scoring opportunity (forget the Portuguese players name).

I agree about Muller,but it couldn't have happened to a better person. Some of the things that Pepe does on the football field are unbelievable

Completely agree. I don't mind a 'hardman' type player, but he's nothing but a nasty wee (insert whatever you want). The type of player that nips and bites rather than a hard tackler, more a Jack Russell than Japanese Tosa if you like.

They were a spent force before they went down to 10. They looked very poor from the start to me

All a bit of a come down now with this bore fest. Iran haven't a goal in then and Nigeria lacking the guile to break them down. 0-0 all over it

 

[DanFST]

I've missed the cricket to watch Iran vs Nigeria. What a terrible choice.

Hey, don't count them out yet..............Iran have a great pedigree in the World Cup.
