Good thing for Uruguay to pass, though the way they won was very Latin American. Mario Kempes in 1978 stopped a ball with his hands, later, the goalie stopped the penalty shot. Argentina was world champion after that.

 

Ps @zexen: What would you do if you had to support either Brazil or England in a world cup final? No cheating.

:P


England

 

What Suárez did is NOT cheating, it's playing football, if I was a coach and a player didn't do that he'd never play under me again, you gotta do your utmost to save the ball from going in specially when it's min 120, it's exactly the same as commiting a professional foul, you do it so your team has another chance, the punishment is fine, Gyan failed the penalty, tough luck. If that were so, all players that ever commited a professional fouls would be cheaters. Fuck that, commiting a foul has to be cheating, right, in the end, it's violating the rules so you get an advantage (cut the advancement), so that player has to be a fucking cheater, right?

Please, the things you gotta read in this site...


He did what any athelete worth his salt would of did in the same situation.

still, committing a foul IS cheating.  That's why they are fouls... and doing it so intentionally is likely what warrants complaining.  Just how not everbody complains when someone hits someone, but when it's an VERY obvious headbutt.. people talk.

Still.  ANY athelete would of did it.  Or like I said... any athelete who cares about winning.


The reactions went all the same way at the bar I was at.

"Damn did you see that it was cheap"


"He totally blocked that intentioanlly."


"I'd of done the same thing though."

"Oh you have to."

"Yeah I mean it's the world cup and if that goes in, you just lose."
