Neowin's Official World Cup 2006 Thread



Recommended Posts

Omg, this thread will burn at the 1st July.

:woot:

Too bad I won't be here to see it :p

And did anyone saw Joseph Blatter said that the final red card was "shown" to the referee and that he won't be refereeing anymore international games?? My dad was talking about that right now.

Can Brazil and Portugal meet before the final? Don;t have the fixture list at hand. That would be something to watch..

I think that Portugal can defeat England, even without Deco. England have been far from impressive.

And seeing Gio van B. and Deco together at the end was good. Misery loves company, no ;)

if im not wrong the 1st time deco played for portugal was against brazil, and portugal won 2-1 (and the winning goal was scored by deco) :)

I am from Canada and have no real favorite team in this world cup and have just been rooting for the underdog or whoever is playing the USA to win, but the portugal vs netherlands game seemed too even to pick an underdog so i just began to watch not really caring who came out on top until the dutch player was sent off for his second yellow on the accidental elbow to figo's face, after that it was all netherlands and they played hard and played tough unlike the very undeserving portugese who gained their advantage by countless dives and gorwn men rolling around on the ground screaming in pain only to get up and continue on playing secodns later, but anyway...just a point of view from a neutral fan turned netherlands fan after all the great actresses from :shiftyninja: portugal put on their "show"

Just when I thought the fire was dying out, we throw some more gasoline on it. Hehe.

Wonder when we'll see him again. I think he's packed his bags and got out of the country, how much hate mail will he be receiving

I doubt it, he did what any ref would have done. I wouldn't want to be in his spot in that game with all the mayhem.

Nor would I, he can't be blamed for being trigger-happy in that situation.

Just realised that the Dutch are the 1st high-profile team to be eliminated from the WC. :(
