I wouldn't put too much stock in that since they both played for a tie in the port v brazil match

Re: 2010 World Cup

Hmmm Costa redcarded :-s , I guess Spain victory is near..


That's it, Spain won!
Portugal missed great opportunity to play it more offensively with Casillas mistakes and apparent holes in spanish defense in first half.

Now, Spain really HAS to go to semifinals (at least) after beating Portugal!

I think offside goal award for round of 16 goes to Tevez...

There's no offside. :neutral:

Diamond Dust wrote:The whole tournament is a joke if you think about it in terms of how they pretty much arrange the fixtures and likely winner. Clubs are seeded to start, so you never see two real heavy weights in one group and the knock out stages are pre-defined. Why can't they be drawn randomly? Or is Fat Sepp Blatter scared of of randomly drawing heavyweight vs heavyweight matches, seeing one leave too soon for him. Oh what a travesty if a country like for example Ghana were to feature in the final huh because they got the luck of the draw? ... :roll: Happens all the time in domestic tournaments, and it's good. It's the beauty of the draw.

How many nations enter the qualification process? Is it something like 192? Why don't they just play it all in a knock out like the FA Cup. Dumb as **Filtered**.

I guess somebody aint a happy bunny after last Sunday.

Sure the knock out stages are pre-defined but they were pre-defined before the teams were drawn. Also I don't see any problem in spreading out the heavy weights in the group stages somewhat. What I don't agree with is that it is based on the Fifa rankings. I think the teams should be classed as the top team in a group depending on their qualification. That would make it perfectly fair for every team.

Similarly, I believe that people in general are inherently flawed. Deep down, we are programmed to hurt one another; either physically or emotionally. People are naturally selfish and greedy; governed more by bestial urges than common sense or ethics. Society is a terrible thing, too. The more supposedly civilized we become, the more immorality and decadence become the main staple of our daily diet.

Before Lost concluded, my main flippant excuse for not killing myself was that I wanted to know how it ended. I will get back to you with a new one when I find it.

Offside? How? He made the run from an onside position, first shot was deflected by the keeper straight back at him, the ball wasn't passed to him so he was onside.

Both. It helps when you want to dive. Makes the rolling and the doggy-eyed face all the more *choke* convincing *cough* not.
