holy shit this was fucking amazing.

Abreu is well known for his penalties, he always does that. apparently no one told the keeper about it or he didn't believe the nickname Loco.

it's a shame that one of the teams had to go out now, I like both.

Lol whats funny is that Abreu considers himself as really bad playing football, but he has the talent to score

WHAT A GREAT HANDBALL!!! xD Last resort FTW, awesome match, most dramatic match in this WC.

Uruguayans are half good, 1/4 lucky(because of the teams they faced) and another 1/4 of pure Balls

What a ridiculous handball, I feel very sorry to Ghana. Uruguay didn't deserve to win.

Ridiculous? More like brilliant.

Football also has a strategy, it's not just tactics...

Sorry, but I'll never condone cheating, nor will I sugar the pill by calling it strategy.

Why is it cheating? He didn't try to deceive anyone, he just willingly defended a goal the only way he could, fully knowing and accepting the consequences.

They punished it with a red card and a penalty, what it deserved.

Ghana should never have been awarded that freekick that led to the handball in the first place.

Which happened to be a handball. He cheated, and he was punished. Since you asked why I consider it cheating, do you think he shouldn't have been punished?!
