energizer23 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Man o man, you gotta say.. for the nuetral viewer this was one heck of a game.. Both sides played dirty. Boulahrouz should've gotten a red card for the kick he gave Ronaldo. And Heitinga should have given the ball back to Portugal. Other than that I think most cards were fair (given the way the game was going). Too bad the Dutch didn't win though.. Overall they had a lot more chances and I think they were the better team in the end.

The problem is with the FIFA's advices. They want the referee to give yellows for everything. Then when the referee needs to give a fair yellow for the players, he already have one...so the red must come.

Setnom Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 First: I'm portuguese. Second: the only think that will go down in history is this: PORTUGAL 1 - 0 HOLLAND And nothing more... not the bad fair play of the dutch nor the bad game quality Portugal demonstrated this night. I find it laughable that all the Brits, minus Martyn, are glad that two players were red-carded from Portugal. Do you guys think we have 11 starters and everyone else in the bench is rubbish? :laugh: To all England fans: BEWARE! Portugal might surprise you, if you think because we have two keys players who can't play against you, that this will be a walk in the park. Man, it looks like I am in Portugal right now outside of my house :woot: Pictures to come Well, I'm the Algarve and it's just CRAZY!!! Brings back fond memories of '04.

BigGiantHead Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 I think you're forgetting about the US... :rofl: Do you mean the ref situation or the US being a high-profile team? I don't consider them as being such, even though they played well against Italy.

Then when the referee needs to give a fair yellow for the players, he already have one...so the red must come. That's true. I personally don't like it when players are carded for celebrating. I recall a Liverpool match, can't remember the opponents, Everton maybe, when Steven Gerrard was booked for doing something stupid like kicking ball away after conceding a free kick and then a tackle from behind a minute later which got him sent off. Not sure if that was the right example though..

energizer23 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 damn how the hell am I gonna be able to get to sleep now.. I'm still really pumped up. Netherlands got so many chances in the last 15 minutes it's still unbelievable they didn't score. The ending moment of the match with Deco and Gio sitting next to each other talking and laughing is still the best I think.. True sportmanship.

h00nta Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Portugal v Netherlands - undoubtably the perfect example of all that's wrong in football - both teams and the officials should be ashamed of themselves. The World Cup is supposed to be the pinnacle of the sport, and I saw NOTHING sporting in either teams display tonight. The officials were no better - why didn't the referee take both team captains aside and tell them to stop diving and cheating? Frankly this game should have been abandoned, all concerned are a disgrace to the sport. :crazy: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/462506-neowins-official-world-cup-2006-thread/page/56/#findComment-587640763 Share on other sites More sharing options...
