What about Upson? I mean come on...is there nothing better outthere???

On a sidenote...weren't the Brits opposed to electronic eyes? Bet that's gonna change now

Upson and Barry were for me the worst, don't know what Capello sees in them.
How long do you think Özil will stay in Werder Bremen? That's a talent to match Messi.

Mexico-Argentina now, good game so far!

Another major referee failure which lead to the 1-0 for Argentina, this is starting to become a fluke. if they don't switch to electronic help, like all other sports already use, i don't know how they think they can keep this freakshow alive. Seriously, i don't even wanna watch anymore if this keeps happening. Sepp Blatter must be the biggest dick on the planet, and if not that, the most corrupt bastard.

Wow England got pummelled. 4-1!

Aye, Tevez 1st goal was clearly offside. He's like 2 yard off. How can the assistant referee didn't see it?

But I got to admit though, His 2nd goal was pure class. Fergie , fergie sign him up!

Argentina vs Germany. Probably gonna be a must watch game next round.

My thoughts are:

- If the Ghana goal had of been a US goal it would have been called offsides; and

- Robbing England of their goal shows us how in this day of technology it's F'N STUPID not to have instant replay.

It's a bum sport all around, as far as I can tell. Bullocks and dodginess.

FIFA is once again ignoring all outcries for electronic help, it's unfrigginbelievable. Maybe it's time for a revolution in football, leave FIFA and it's fossile leaders, and set up a whole new footballassociation, it wouldn't be the first time a major sportsassociation splits up. Too many times important footballmatches have been decided by bad calls from the referees and linesmen, and in some cases you can even wonder if it happened on purpose or not. It's high time to modernise football and start using camerafootage as evidence.

Felt sorry for england

but the english defence was a joke - Who ate all the pies? well Batty for one ... and all the other defenders, how slow where they?

Holland through - though they almost bored me to tears.

guess i just expect the 'total football' of the mid 70's to still be there
