Exactly. You and dumbartonbass said it perfectly. Whatevs dude, you're just saying I should come back to that thread cos Barca are having some transfer fun times. Even Arsenal got into the action. Call me when United start making transfer cash rain. :grin:
IIRC. The first option. He said two others did not want to take the first penalty so when they asked him he stepped up. I think you have to remember this was 15 minutes after he played the best game of his live but missed the penalty which resulted in not making the finals. He was devistated. You should watch his body language. He was the first player ready for interviews.
Ah ok thanks for that. I just rewatched his penalty and just wished he put his foot through the ball like Garay did. Damnit! Anyway let's hope Van Gaal rescues him from the never-ending mediocrity that is Aston Villa and brings him to the present mediocrity that is United lol.:grin:
Agreed, they should get rid of the 3rd place match, and also I think they should get rid of giving a medal to the team that lost in the final. why they have to stay there watching the other team celebrate, its already painful knowing you lost the final, but you have to stay and watch them celebrate, just to receive a medal. the Olympics is very different, in track the final is between 8 runners. and also is very different to get an olympic medal,than to get a FIFA medal for losing the final, or to be 3rd place. I like the way NBA and NFL do it, like the team that lost, can go inmediately to the locker room, after the game is over, I would prefer doing that, that getting a 2nd place medal in the world cup. or at least give the 2nd place medals in the locker room, if you really want to give them. /end of rant.
What the hell? Penalty AND yellow? Should have been free kick and red. Nicely done by van Persie though. And I can't help but laugh at Brazil.
Thiago Silva is trying to reach Pepe levels of stupidity. Should have been red carded. Shouldn't have been a PK though.
Robben probably earned that yellow for yelling at the ref about Silva not getting a red. Regardless... it's over already. Brazil is horrific.
Man, does Brazil suck. How on earth did they even make to the semi-finals? The Dutch doing what they do best. Counter-attacks all day long.
So Brazil just sucks. They made Germany looked like gods. Now they made the Netherlands look the same.
Elbow to the back of the head. Bleeding and they still let him play? I don't understand the safety approach of FIFA.
easy, they don't have one. we've seen them allow players back on the field after they clearly had a concussion and them bouncing neymar up and down on a stretcher after a spine injury.
