http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eal0LSSnaEc Robben got jumping-roundhouse kicked. i almost cried when i saw his facial expression go “how did THAT not get even a foul??”

At least France didn’t surrender.

i’m not even half as mad about this game as the Portugal vs Holland game. that one was just classic. 16 yellow cards and 4 red cards, and EVERY ONE OF THEM was justice, seriously. don’t know if you guys watched that one. there are actually even more occasions that should’ve been fouls/cards but the ref didn’t give them. if you guys have that game recorded/downloaded, just watch the part Robben (of Holland) got jumping-roundhoused (literally, just like a street fighter move) by a Portugal defender in the box. absolutely ridiculous, no foul there.

I don’t like how Zidane is vilified for a crime that was punished. There was plenty of flopping/diving going on on both sides of the ball. The referees correctly ignored much of it, but no one got yellow cards for it. No one was warned. I find that to be much more sickening.

And talk about bad sportsmanship. Zidane’s blatant headbutt to the chest was sickening. I, for one, am incredibly happy that Italy won. Heh..and as far as other World Cups go, I remember back in my freshman year waking up at 5am to go over to Bigi’s dorm and watch the world cup games. Good times…
