He made the right decision to not make it count.

Switzerland just completed 9 hours with no goals conceived in World Cup's.
More 12 minutes and it's the all-time record…am i jinxing it?
I hope not~ I want them to break that record. Though I wouldn't mind them losing after they break it.
LOL This referee SUCKS.
WTF is up with this dumbass referee and the players are getting nervous as shit because of him, asshole is ruining the game.
After a good start, the referees are being pretty confused lately..
Slowenia vs USA (perfectly fine goal was not given to USA)
Germany vs Serbia (a buttload of cards that were not necessary were given)
Brazil vs Ivory Coast (1 handball goal by Brazil and brutal fouls with no cards given)
Chile vs Swizerland (buttload of wrongly given cards)
Who will stop South America?

Brazil vs Ivory Coast (1 handball goal by Brazil and brutal fouls with no cards given)
Chile vs Swizerland (buttload of wrongly given cards)
Greece vs Argentina The referee only gave Argentina 4 red cards, and Greece barely won with 5 - 2. sheesh, I hope the refs are better in the Germany - Greece final.
By the way, for anyone that likes betting, Maradonna announced he's making changes: Messi, Aguero, Milito up front.
It will be a over 2.5+ goal game.
Naked Maradonnaaaaaaaaaaa….
On a serious note, Chile have a very nice team dynamic, I wish they had more scoring ability, because many mistake them to be boring, but their real downfall is their inability to complete plays and put the damn ball behind that white line.

I don't get it. Is that suppossed to be funny?:blink:
Yes, you missed the convo between me and Ivotas earlier probably.
Anyway, to clarify, I like the way Chile's coach set up the team, even though the players aren't overly impressive, you always see them with good setup during defense, they run with options during counters, and their offense tends to have at least 2 people ready for a pass.
If you had this type of setup in a team like.. Real Madrid let's say, they would dominate.
So many goal opportunities…

Germany - Greece final.
LOL! First yellow card for bad theater! At last something I can agree with, with this referee!
Chile is a very entertaining team. I hope they will go far in this World Cup.
Oh ok, but you liked the 5-2 score right? =p
Time for Spain… yay?

Nope. I just didn't consider it to be worth a knife-threat since it's too lame to come true. >=P
Haven't watched it all, but the ref was probably worse than in the Germany vs. Serbia game, well, or equally as bad and Chile lost all sympathies from me, cause they play their bag of dirty tricks, can only score offside goals or lucky buttgoals and not to mention that they all seem like a bunch of jackasses… hope Swiss and Spain will make it!
Chile looked pretty good other than the diving at the end. I really hope Switzerland makes it through, though. Both Chile and Switzerland deserve it.
Swiss's coach looked like an old detective.
Also, Chile did very well.
But yeah they sort of fell apart at the end there.
Seems like Chile, Switzerland and Spain will all get 6 points. So Spain needs to score as many goals as possible against Honduras to improve their goal difference! Expect a fun game.

Well they better bring a good game compared to what we saw last time. :/
Spain and Switzerland will advance.
Perfect result, Chile play was good. Now Spain needs to win against Honduras and Chile. Honduras has to win(tie) against Switzerland and these defencive fuckers won't make to the next round.
Fuck this shit bring back Collina already
Ok, the red card was to much, but Switzerland deserves this.
How so?
I think the referee was bad - he wasn't (too) unfair, and most of the time correct - but he started giving out yellow cards literally the minute the game started. He basically had to give red for consistency, but nevertheless, that changed the game drastically. Also, during one free kick and ensuing chaos, there should have been a red card too.
@Das:
Why? I guess Spain will score more than one goal against Honduras. Then it's up to Spain in the last match wether or not they win against Cile and advance, or am I wrong?:wassat:
I just have a feeling that Spain lacks the coolness to do well under this pressure. They might rape Honduras but then again I'm not so convinced that they'll keep their calm against Chile. And Hitzfeld will definitely win against Honduras.
Fuck this shit bring back Collina already

Collina=best referee ever. Loved the guy. I bet he is facepalming a lot watching these amateurs going around, randomly throwing cards.

What i meant was the match spain vs switzerland.
And yes the ref was really bad, but i lmao when they got the red card and the goal was even better.

Switzerland's defense has been more entertaining to me than all of Spain's awful football. Switzerland may not win like Portugal or Brazil, but it doesn't change the fact that 10 of their players kept up and almost tied Chile. Hounduras is gonna get swept by all three teams, I think.

Yeah Swizerland at doesn't play handball.
VIVA CHILE MIERDA!!!!!! WE WON AGAIN!! Is true, we lost so many chances today but the true is that now we are leaders of the group…. Spain please make my day and just tie against Honduras!!

Its very likely that Honduras will lose against Switzerland that only means Spain has to make more goals then Switzerland. Their defence was awful during this game, they only lost 1:0 because their goalie is really good and the chileans weren't able to score higher.
Yeah Swizerland at doesn't play handball.
Whine whine whine. They would've won the game anyway, so please get over it. This wasn't anything like Maradonna or Amrey (sp?), who's handballs actually decided games.
Once again the worst man on the field was the refree… It isn't fun anymore... We aren't at some ballet world cup...
They are spamming the cards like AGOG his monster posts in the next nakama thread -.-
What's next... If you shoot the ball too fast you will get a yellow card cuz you could hurt the blocking player?
Really that is shit! Major shit. How can you play with rules like that. Now a defender has to stay 2 meters away from the player or what. And 3/4 of the team has to be aware and don't play at the fullest to avoid an other yellow card cuz the next important KO matches they are locked...
By war the worst world cup I've ever seen so far!
Chile deserve to pass, we just won two of our three matches and after the big earthquake that stroke us in february, is good to see so many people celebrating in the streets! CHILE IS GOING TO PASS!!
Well, better than nothing I guess, Ronaldo.

his shot that hit the bar was amazing and he had some great assists, so a half-retarded but fully hilarious goal is okay lolvuvuzelas are LOUD, I'm surprised the mom doesn't beat the kid half to death with it
Next up, Chile vs Swiss
lol
that reminds me somehow of this

Whine whine whine. How about you ignore people who complain about incompetent referees if they annoy you so much?

I hate to ruin your dream, but although they are first at the moment, Spain and Switzerland will most likely go through.
Oh, and about the ref…He handed out too many cards, but he wasn't that bad.
lol

Not to mention that at least three Ivory Coast players deserved a red card.
3x1 was a low score for them.

I agree that the refs have been abysmal, but the whole "This team cheated, that team cheated, they need to be punished" is childish. Blaming the players for getting away with something that a good ref would've seen is like blaming an epidemic on the last person getting sick.
If the Brazil game gets you so mad, blame Ivory Coast's defense for allowing Brazil to get that close to the goal.

I agree with all of it but what does that have to do with the incompetent referre? He did not see the handball goal, 2 red cards and a good half dozen yellow cards. He was totally overhelmed and lost control of the game.

See above.
yeah, uhmm ..
the arabian ref in Chile-Switzerland was terrible, no control and all in all more stupid decisions than deserved cards. and fifa standarts or not - there were far too many points were he interrupted the game.
and the swiss almost made it, such a huge chance in minute 90! chile left too many opportunities behind.
there were many funny moments too:
brewhaha!

Most of the referees here seem to have that problem. I don't know if he was overwhelmed, per se, but he was definitely not paying attention to the game. So I guess we can agree on that. I don't mind the referee bashing, the team bashing is just kinda strange.
Edit: @Strohhut: I thought he was gonna be one of the few good refs, too, after the first game . . . I was so disappointed.
Shit, completely forgot to see Portugal VS Korea
Will try to rewatch it somehow, anyone knows of a site?

Cristiano Ronaldo only scored one.
Seems like Portugal is in better shape than in their first game
They really need to do something about the refs.
Ottmar agrees.
