I have zero sympathy for players that go against the spirit of the game. This is also why I hate divers so much.farnham said:compare this foul to the one from melo

If they are going to represent my country, I want them to win fair and straight, and I expect the same from other teams.

He made a foul, got punished for it, end of story
I'm glad suarez is on my team, dude knows how to score, and he does everything to win.
to bad we don't get to kick suarez in the teeth now.... (i'm for feyenoord )NSider said:Stop whining about the handball being "cheating", people. Suarez didn't get away with cheating since he was punished to the full extent of the law.
People applaud defenders and midfielders who break dangerous counter attacks with "professional" fouls. They get cautioned but a very good scoring chance is almost completely gone. Suarez turned an almost certain scoring chance THAT CAME FROM AN OFFSIDE to an 80% chance from the penalty spot. His impulsive gamble paid off big time!
:lol

This.-viper- said:Fuck Uruguay and fuck Suarez the cheating motherfucking cunt. I'm fuelled with rage and anger after this pathetic display of cheating and deceit.
Ghana were robbed of their place in the semi finals.

jamesinclair said:I agree, and thats the biggest weakness for the brasilian team: they've turned into europeans.
A great example is to watch the UEFA Champions league final and the Libertadores final. The champions league final is low energy, everyone has made their money, they just need to show up and pass the ball around. The LIbertadores final, theyre playing for EVERYTHING.
Not protesting makes it right? I seem to recall seeing the Ghana players celebrating the penalty like they already won.Boozeroony said:It might've been offside, but no one on the pitch protested on that.
Felipão is a deadlock for a return. What does that mean? 13 players from Brazilian teams in 2002 vs 2 in 2010 (1 of them Robinho). As I said, early in the thread, fuck this Dunga team with a bunch of Felipe Melos! Go Holland!jamesinclair said:I agree, and thats the biggest weakness for the brasilian team: they've turned into europeans.

Luis Suarez says he now has the 'Hand of God' after his controversial handball helped Uruguay reach the semi-finals of the World Cup.
Ajax striker Suarez's deliberate handball on the goal-line in the final minute of extra-time prevented Dominic Adiyiah's header from sending Ghana through to the last four.
Suarez was sent off for his action and then danced with glee on the sidelines when Asamoah Gyan smacked the resultant penalty against the crossbar.
Uruguay went on to prevail 4-2 in the shoot-out to set up a semi-final clash with Holland and Suarez's handball drew comparisons to Diego Maradona's infamous goal against England at the 1986 finals.
Prolific front-man Suarez is now claiming the 'Hand of God' mantle for himself and insists he had no choice but to block Adiyiah's header.
"This was the end of the World Cup. I had no choice. I have the 'Hand of God' now," said Suarez.
"I did it so that my team-mates could win the penalty shoot-out. When I saw Gyan miss the penalty it was a great joy."

Boozeroony said:It was such a close call and the situation was very chaotic. Refs were prolly looking at different things (hand-ball, shirt pulling etc.).
Wouldnt Uruguay be protesting? Guess they did not consider that at the time.

Boozeroony said:Oh dear. I'm an Ajax supporter, but Suarez is a cunt. I can understand his foul, but "Hand of God"? Really?
He is overrated anyway. The amount of chances he needs to score is huge. Ok, he scored loads of goals, but many of those were the 4-0 or 5-1 against Willem II.

Steeven said:Please don't give me that crap. Have you seen the team of Uruguay. It's not that good, so it's hard for him, even for Forlan, to stand above the rest and win the matches. I mean he's not Messi but I'm sure he can hold his own in a big team.
Boozeroony said:
Steeven said:So what? When he plays the opponents may put two defenders on him to stop him off just because he's threatening, so other players in the team can breathe a little more, and hey, maybe create chances and score goals? Or did I see another Ajax last season?
No, real news on how serious, if anything at all, Robin already stated he would do a Drogba if necessaryCerebral Assassin said:Van Persie is having a scan on his arm according to Sky Sports, any better info from Holland?

Lach said:Is there a way that Suarez is going to be banned from the Final (if Uru beats Holland)?
I really feel that there needs to be consequenzes for this and that actions like his hands-save must not become a calculable risk (for which he is now celebrated as a hero and martyr).
mrklaw said:The best outcome should have been:
Twat handballs off the line. Linesman/assistant ref, realising the injustice of it all, doesn't blow for handball, but instead signals that the goal crossed the line. The wrong decision objectively, but the right one in the situation. Goal awarded to Ghana, Ghana wins.
Later on, the replays will show it didn't cross the line. Fifa will slap the linesman wrist, but the media will praise the justice that was done this day.
