So... doesn't this mean our team is still better than England, since we didn't lose as badly as they did?

No because unlike Ghana, Germany are actually a good team.

You just keep on underestimating the team that might actually make it to the semi-finals (Ghana) :lol:

worst cup ever. Refs should all get their heads checked for brain tumors.

After what happened with the USA's clear goal that they canceled, they didn't count a FUCKING CLEAR GOAL that England scored. FFS the ball was 1 meter inside the goal :S:S:S:S.


And of course let's not forget the game changing goal that Argentina scored against Mexico. It was so offside the guy who worked at the snacks bar could see it with naked eye. Yet even when the giant replay screen showed the goal, and it was a clear offside the refs still decided to be stupid / accept Argentina's bribe / I don't know what, and count the goal.


Meanwhile Maradona keeps whining that the refs are not protecting his dear Messi. At least try to hide the fact that the refs are favoring the big teams.

Maradona should just have keep doing his drugs and shut his mouth up.

It's because Fifa won't implement reviews into their system. Some fucking horseshit about it not being fair on other nations without access to the technology. I mean, what fucking technology are we talking about, a fucking VCR? You don't need fucking Hawk-Eye to freeze frame the precise moment an infraction occurred. It's fucking retarded. Soccer/football must be the only sport where this sort of review system isn't used at all.
