Ahm... Yeah, forget the Brazil is gonna win part...

Did anyone see the ghana game ? I cant believe Uraguay and the hand of God moment, ok the player got sent off and Ghana was given a shot but thats not enough... now every player in the dying seconds of any game when faced with teh same situation will play the hand of God card... so what if they get the red card , their team is given another chance !

The rules should change. I feel so sorry for Ghana.

Dawn

Any player WOULD have done the same in the dying seconds of a game, hes not going to let it in. I felt sorry for Uruguay during the game because of the totally bias commentary by ITV. Suddenly Desailly is Ghanain now his "other" country fail miserably and every one else sucked up to him.

We watched it too. I am not defending Suarez but as the previous poster said, another player could have done the same. He was sent off and Ghana had the opportunity to win the match there, pity they didn't and went to penalties. But I am happy for Uruguay.

I am sick already waiting for today's match.

What a shock Brazil going out

Before the world cup I said that of the Netherlands, Uruguay and Serbia, 2 are going to make it to the semifinals :D. Am so happy.


Go the DUTCHIES!!! Two more games and you are finally World Champions. I mean, it's incredible that England has a world cup and the Dutch don't!

Did you put any money on it? I wish i had put money on Germany. I think they may win today

Russ I don't like you anymore...

I would have put money on Argentina if I was in the UK but since I can't gamble out here I REALLY hope they don't win it :)

Ive never been right about a pre-tourney winner before so I don't want to start now.

It was shocking and blatant cheating. To say any other player would have done the same thing doesn't make it right. The game was a great battle to watch and for it to be settled by a sickening act like that... I hope Uruguay get f*cking stuffed by Holland! Even if they don't and manage to get to the final, Suarez should be banned for that as well.

Sending someone off and giving a penalty may be 'almost' balancing the circumstances out if there's still a fair chunk of the game left to play but it was the last kick of the ball before pens so effectively saying a penalty alone compensates for a winning goal? No it doesn't!!

In rugby, if something like that happens, the attacking team gets a penalty try. In that situation in football, the only fair decision would be to award a penalty goal (even though I know they can't because there's no such thing!).

An absolute joke and Ghana can feel genuinely robbed. Desailly has been supporting Ghana since day 1 so to say the commentary was biased is silly. They reacted the way they did because anyone barring the most blinded of Uruguayan fans would admit it was an appalling display of dishonesty and cheating. Uruguay didn't deserve to go through in the same way that France didn't deserve to qualify for the tournament at all.

C'mon Holland. I said they'd win it before the comp started and hopefully they'll now brush aside Uruguay before meeting Spain in the final. My money's on Germany today as well cos I think they'll wind the Argentines up and the frustration will play right into their hands.
