Oh man. That really sucks for Ivory Coast. That goalkeeper was maybe two inches away from saving his team from elimination.
Ivory Coast were dumb in the final 10 minutes. They brought it upon themselves. All they had to do was hold the fort with 10 minutes to go. Should have packed it in. Instead they left a massive gap in the midfield. At times they had 4-5 players up front and worse, when they lost the ball, those 5 guys did nothing to get back. Absolutely stupid and it cost them.
Was that a penalty? It looks like he tripped on himself. Then again, i'm watching a low-res video of it
it was definitely a penalty. I had my suspicions at first but the super slow mo clearly showed he got clipped when he was going for the shot.
Man Costa Rica had the perfect round . Instead of playing Colombia who I think will beat urugay easily They will play Greece ..
It was a foul... the defender stopped the Greek dude from kicking the ball. Why are you watching LOW-RES? http://deportesenvivo.univision.com/game/c-de-marfil-at-grecia-on-20140624 HD
I can't think of another team I'd want to see advance less than Greece. Even teams that are actual rivals of my countries, i'd rather see them advance instead of Greece!
James Rodriguez has earned the Ronaldo comparisons. has been the best attacking player in the cup so far. Colombia are pretty fun to watch, all the Latin teams are darkhorses. Holland and France are only euro teams who have looked good
I love to watching competitions. It's a thing of beauty. But what Suraz did today was not acceptable. He should be banned from the rest of World Cup and probably more International game beyond that.
You know who Mexico reminds me of? Teams that qualify for march madness barely. In fact, they shouldn't be there. Then they end up in the final four. Arizona did that before.
Interesting to see how Italy move on from this. A LOT of people fed up with Balotelli. Dilemma because he is our most talented striker by a large margin. Thoughts on the game: Not a Red on Marchisio, Should have been a Red for Suarez, there was a foul on the goal. Italy should have not lost this game, Uruguay didnt deserve to win, But Italy have no one but themselves to blame for going home. thoroughly deserve to be eliminated, however im not so sure Uruguay deserve to be moving on...
