I don't want to talk about it ever again. Shame on Holland and on Portugal. SOmeone shoot the ref. And someone lock this thread. It's just too painful.

4 red cards is laughable. So is the thought of England advancing.

soo true.

força portugal

I dont think there was too much wrong with the ref there, he held is line, which was pretty tight but still, most of the situations deserved the cards. players got frustrated and started doing stupid shit.

and wtf was deco thinking, there was no whistle so the dutch guy started advancing, he gets pissed of and should've gotten a red for that tackle. then the idiot picks up the ball in the middle of gameplay..

that game was pretty disturbing. but much worse was the yesterday's between Australia and Italy. the Italian have managed to make me angry again with all they play-acting and diving. the last minute penalty was a joke, The Italians are such a bunch of cheaters, there must not be a word for fair-play or sportsmanship in italian, crazy... for the record, i also thought the red card was too harsh...

The ref should be fired.

As Blatter said. The ref deserved a yellow card (Which probably is his favorite color..). But on the other hand Figo and van Bommel both deserved a red one. I hate it when people try to act like Lother mattheus.

It was a pity though. It's depressing to see oranje leave the tournament early. It takes away all the suspense for me...
