Wow so much envy and ignorance here. Specially from Carl. England played bad every minute of this world cup, get over it. As for Iran, how the f*** did they deserve to win when all they did was defend and throw the ball to our defenders the whole match??? Argentina did not play bad at all, it's just that Iran put up a wall.
We deserved to win, we were much better than Iran the entire match. You people are just jelous.

Envy? Sure. Ignorance? Ha.

Iran were robbed. Iran we are talking about here, just pushed Argentina to the 90th minute, made 3-4 clear cut goal scoring chances and were denied a penalty.

Argentina were lucky, thats all that there is to it. Better team sure, but they really did not deserve 3 points.

Neither did Iran though .

And speaking of Iran, they were not robbed anything. That wasn't a penalty

Balls don't just change directions and increase speed like that without being touched first.  

Granted, the ref never had slow motion to make the call and it was a 50/50 call from his point of view, nevertheless it wasn't a penalty so his lucky guess was in fact correct.
