Man, we're playing like shit, but both that being an extremely forced Penalty (since both players were grabbing each other as the replays showed) and now this stupid red card.

The referee didn't even called a foul the first time, and out of nowhere comes that red card. How many players have you seen going head to head before and only getting Yellows for both players? That's regular football. But not today, today you get a Red fucking card.

That was a headbutt, deserved the red card.

He literally just put his face on muller's face. No amount of replays will change that into a "headbutt". You see that on a ton of games and it's always Yellows for both players. Muller was digging for a red card, and he got it. 

I'm not saying that Pepe's attitude was the correct one, but if that's a Red card, no football game ever would end up with 11 vs 11. 

Well, GG Germany. If I were Bento, I would just sub Ronaldo and Nani out, don't tire them for US and Gana.

it is just the luck,we have plenty of players sent off for nothing,just the way it goes

don't think you would ever beat germany anyway,so shouldn't make much difference to qualifying,i said earlier i'd take off ronaldo though,no point wasting him

I agree with the refs decisions, overall lame game

Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

That red card and the earlier penalty were just unfair. Now the game is a joke.

Pepe is just an idiot. Every time Real Madrid or Portugal is on the losing side, he does something like this.

Aniihilation is coming, I don't care if I'm getting those 5 points. I want 6-0!!!

I didn't think so either (that we had a chance to win), but these kind of decisions can make a huge dent on the morale of a team, not to mention long term consequences since with this red card, Pepe is off for the next match as well (and probably Gana, if FIFA comitee decides to give him a 2 games ban).

And yeah, Ronaldo has to be switched, as well as Nani. I wouldn't call the US and Gana easy matches, any team can do a surprise in the WC.
