Re: 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa
[QUOTE=Mr.Big;875783]They didn't deserve to win? Fuck that man.. I think a few of you are missing the point, the final was ugly alright but ya can blame the ref and the dutch players took advantage of him, they played like thugs for the whole thing. The Spanish dived once or twice but every other dirty tackle was justified with a free kick. I counted at least 3 red cards against the dutch in that match, Webb should have sent a dutch player off early to warn the rest of the team, the yellow cards he was dishing out meant nothing. The english media are hilarious praising Webb's reffing, he was crap, didn't take control of the game at all.
Anyway its done and dusted now, Spain are righteous champions and were the better team won on the night. [B]Also Happy for Diego Forlan who got the golden boot[/B].[/QUOTE]
umm, that would be Thomas Mueller... you mean Forlan got the golden ball :)
sloppy boring final, congrats to Spain... Robben could have put it out of reach twice and for all the talk of him diving, when he could have gone down and probably should have, he stayed up and missed a golden chance to put the Dutch up
Iniesta great goal, but most of the match he was on the floor, could have easily been booked for diving a few times
and that bloke that cleated the Spanish player in the chest should have seen red imo... for all the yellows handed out I was surprised to see only one sending off, for a minute there it looked as though it could end up 8 v 8, lol
I still think it was an exciting world cup from a neutral stand point, but that ball better have seen its last match, lol
plus way too many talking points regarding refereeing and bad/non calls
