well atleast they are still good at bribing referees

!

well maybe referee felt bad about first goal which was scored from offside?

Should have let Spermy play his Fifa skillz

Italy didn't play very well but at least they were constantly attacking which is an improvement (they were also constantly attacking vs Paraguay). New Zealand were boring as hell and had almost all their players defending.

your team is shit, just face it.

(preempting your reply, no im not english, im half scottish half dutch)

and yes, it looks like italy and holland may meet in ro16 :)

*if italy get out of their group that is xD

fuck italy. seriously. fuck them! after the first few minutes espn said:
"Cannavaro goes down clutching his face, despite rory fallons elbow being nowhere near it".

then later in the game:"criscito is the latest player to go down in an attempt to get rory fallon sent off. Its not impressive at all."

what a bunch of fucking divers. they'd win every medal at the summer olympics. amazing how a video that's six years old now is still so true:

:D

Same for the south american teams too tbh

Nearly every team and nation are at it.

I don't have a problem with much of the play acting, it's often after a genuine foul and just drawing attention to it, if the referees could use video technology there wouldn't be as much need to play act.

You see referees ignore bad challenges and violent conduct all the time because they didn't quite see it and the players didn't dive and roll about.

the playacting is a disgrace tbh, although i do understand that it sometimes calls fouls to attention (when one has been committed which u honestly dont know anymore).

i find the playacting and diving the biggest turn off about football, even when a player from my team does it and gets a freekick or penalty or whatever, i just feel disgusted.

Blatantly just gagged on someone's meat

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

so your point is our women cry as much as your players?

worst referee

that was some scary shit straight out of paranormal activity

The guy had stepped on his heel. You can't see shit on that video but it clearly was the case.

And yet he runs a bit longer before he eventually decides to fall in agonizing pain.

If you'd paid attention you'd have seen he was no longer applying pressure on the ground with his legs. I'm all for criticizing players who dive but in this case he was really clipped.

What the fuck are you alluding? His way of running doesn't change until the fall.

Are you blind? The moment he gets clipped he stops applying pressure on the ground with his feet.

Hahaha does all football players have a pavlovian reaction to automaticaly put at least one of their hands on their face/head when falling? :D

bump

ROFL

lmao

LOL AGAIN

:P

I bet there are a lot of people wandering around italty right now saying "mama mia".

Probably not since it's "mamma mia".

more like "che cazzo!"

no Stermy - no win :(

SLOVAKIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

LMAO!

some slovakia has passed the wc2010 group and we couldnt even qualify for this world cup haha

hmm slovakia was better, however italy's 2nd goal is probably the best medium distance goal in this worldcup so far.

major importance

:}}}}}}}}

wow, the last 20 minutes were the most insane i've seen in a football match in quite a while. Jamerio is right, the country of Italy is RAGING.

totally agreed, I posted something like "last 20 mins had more drama than entire macbeth" on my facebook page.

But not as much as Hamlet?

Not that it matters anymore, but this (Italian) fuckface should've seen red for this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RI0bJENANuo

to be honest, im happy, as much as any strong nation gets out of the world cup... agu = :D

woohoo New Zealand undefeated!!
