That should have been a penalty, the defender was pulling him down from behind!!!

Am I the only one who finds it humorous to watch Blanco move around like a fucking weeble wobble?

Blanco's fat ass is hilarious to watch :lol:

South Africa should've stolen this match twice in the final seconds of regulation...wow.

Good opening match. The way Mexico controlled the first half, I thought for sure it would be a 2-0 game.

peay- I'll get you a vuvuella (however its spelled) if you pay for it plus shipping.
I am bringing earplugs to every game, I won't be able to deal with those things.

Irmatov reffed a hell of a game, except for a lapse in the 70th minutes (should have been a pen, should have shown the SA player the red card); but at least a 9/10 rating for him. People forget he is the youngest ref at the WC at 32, so we are going to have to get used to him for a long long time.

SA did what is had to do, get a point, now best case scenario is URU beats FRA and then so does Mexico so they can beat a we stopped caring France team to proceed.

France is having a lot of issues. Henry not starting is one of them. It all comes down to their coach. He's not well-liked by the team. But, Henry's not the same player he used to be either.

Henry is in shit form, and cannot do anything at Barca. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, he hasn't score since his hand-ball incident.

He is coming to MLS' New York Red Bulls after the World Cup.....read into that what you will lol. That said, he's a solid sub.

I swear, I don't understand why France doesn't have their men's national team at the Olympics. They'd win the diving gold every time!

He was already on a yellow. The second yellow meant he had to see red.
