Fifa just announced to put 'use of electronical devices' on their agenda...

Now if all 'big' coaches and players put their heads together and make sure this happens fast maybe the game will become more 'honest'.

Sad thing though: if you need something from the Fifa, like wanting to organise a WC you had better be on their side. So count Cruyff and others out sadly enough... (is what i expect even though Cruyff does support the use of cameras...)

Finally FIFA gets off their high horse and actually try to do something to better the game. 

What is really sad it that they are only considering it because it happened to high-profile team. If the England - Germany situation had happened to a team like Honduras, FIFA wouldn't give a crap. 

Don't expect them to do anything, they are just putting on a show so everyone shuts up. I'm willing to bet my sig for 2 months  that at max they'll implement 2 goal line referees (like in the europa league atm).

Sadly, I think you're right. I don't think they'll even consider a god-damn chip on the ball to tell if it's in or not.

Japan deserved to go through, not Paraguay, they were the only team that bothered to try and win the game in the normal time, while Paraguay just wanted to defend.

oh well... my support does not seem to be profitting the teams... at leas i'm sure one of the last 2 I support will go through (since they face off...)

ok lol... I was wondering why there was no replay checking the offside on the goal... it's because the goal was offside (and the line ref had a horrible positionning...)... FIFA probably instructed the production crew not to put offside replays of validated goals anymore...

Video is really needed in soccer...  not to validate anything, but as a means to counter a decision (if a goal is counted, prove that it's offside. If a card is given, prove that it's not waranted... should be like in tennis where each team can use it 3 times...).

Spain 1-0 Portugal

Simão | MySpace Video

Pause at 00:25. Villa's ahead at least 3 feet from the last defender, Coentrao on the left side. Good job FIFA, pretty fucking good job. You finally got what you wanted all along. An irregular goal which decides the entire outcome of a match. 

I hope Spain gets what they deserve against Argentina/Germany. They just gained a new supporter.

portugal was robbed everyone saw what spain did to ronaldo when he got the ball fairly, pushed over none of the ref's spotted it, and the other time players diving with no portual players being at fault, I really feel for all supporter's of portugal right now, I really feel like they could have easily won if spain had not cheated so much and the ref's got their act together.
