Is the ref that same Japanese ref from the Croatia game, by any chance?

That's a handball, as crappy as it looked

This game is awesome

 

[trellaine201]

touched by the player's arm or hand. If a ball bounces up and hits a player's hand unintentionally, it is not a hand ball.

Oh my terrible goaltending lol yikes

Algeria isn't Japan, so no.

That was a Toskala like effort from the Aussie keeper. Have to feel for our Commonwealth brothers here. Great game though.

If that's Toskala level effort. I'd love to know the Russian keeper's effort level yesterday

Eh, close enough

Crazy flops everywhere

Wow! I'm so relieved. Great effort by Australia. Glad holland held on.

Good game. I can enjoy an exciting 0-0 draw as well but games with lots of goals, especially with eye candy like in this game is always better.

I didn't think it was that bad a call to be honest. Harsh, yes, but the arm was away from the body and blocked the ball. I know he didn't move it, but I don't think it was a "joke". Thankfully it wasn't the deciding goal. Great game!

Australia > Spain

well this sucks for Portugal:

After suffering an opening game, 4-0 loss to Germany, Portugal could also be in danger of losing their best player, Cristiano Ronaldo to injury.

NBC Sports, citing a story in El Confidential, is reporting that Ronaldo's doctor wants him to pull out of the World Cup due to a knee injury.

If it's his patellar tendon, he's gotta walk away. No sense in throwing away the few prime years he has left.

Jesus...listen to those Chileans sing the national anthem. Such pride.

 

[EscapeGoat]

Chile! 1-0! Goal by Vargas.

 

[johnny_rudeboy]

Awesome. Vivala Chile. Or something like that.

Spain outscored 7-1 so far in the tournament, and on the verge of being eliminated.

Unbelievable.

 

[TheThrill81*]

I guess Spain now realizes that their million horizontal passes in the midfield doesn't work anymore.

 

[DoubleDouble*]

I think I just saw a spanish fan pick his nose then he ate it on worldwide tv coverage.

 

[mydnyte]

6 extra mins ...this is typical FIFA BS!!! ...Spain is still OUT!!
