Wow, now that's really game manipulation done by the ref here.
I mean the refs in this World Cup were really bad, but that's over the top.…

Giving penalty for tripping?? In the last group game which determines what team goes on ?

He had a clear view on it. It was 100% a penalty, stop pulling things out of your ass. They have different camera angles on it, you know?

 

[Disagree Guy]

I can see this gif making a return lol

 

[akaoni]

Got the slowmo on the Suarez bite, he really goes to take a chunk out of him.

 

[Walshy]

Costa Rica or Greece will be in the Quarter Finals.

That would be unthinkable at the start of the tournament.

 

[dani_dc]

Man, I feel bad for Ivory Coast.

With that said, it was a clear penalty, he hits the Ivory Coast player leg which causes him to "trip" on the grass.

 

[Mr.Awesome]

How the fuck has no one giffed this yet? We have every other play of the tournament giffed lol

Who?

Did you miss all the "FUCK Greece" posts?

 

[Mr. Poolman]

My fellow FutbolGAFfers

We, the people of Costa Rica put our word to stop the terrible evil that is Greece on this World Cup.

We ask you for your support against these fearsome foes and the day of the match will count on you, our brothers, to stop this dark age.

Together! we will destroy democracy!

 

[GTP_Daverytimes]

Someone gif the 'foul' please.

 

[norinrad]

Ahahahaha ok i take my words back after checking the vid again. right call

ITT: Racist pricks

I've yet to see any sort of racism ITT.

 

[grkazan12]

Don't worry, I still love you Gaf. My hands are still shaking.

PATRIDA MOU !!!!!!!!!

 

[Acorn]

Lmao@suarez statement. So much bullshit.

 

[Haunted]

You guys know I dislike Greece.

That was a penalty, ref had the balls to call it in such an important situation and he was correct.

 

[ColossalLazy]

It was a penalty guys. The IC player touched Samaras causing him to trip and mess his shot to the goal.

 

[Tugatrix]

Give me that replay of the most absurd penalty ever

 

[m0t0k1]

Penalty was legit.

 

[TheBaronOfNA]

Did you miss all the "FUCK Greece" posts?

That is not the definition of racism...

 

[Horseress]

I don't think it was a dive, but from one angle it looks like he kicked himself, weird as that sounds.

The Ivory Coast defender kicked his foot, and then Samaras tripped and kicked his other leg

 

[cripterion]

I'll laugh pretty hard if Greece beats Costa Rica. Anything can happen in this World Cup (and I don't see Costa Rica as a super unbeatable team either).

This is no joke, its a valid question 100% of the time.

 

[gloomy]

Rooting for Colombia and Costa Rica

I'll jump on that wagon.

 

[ramparter]

This is fucking bullshit. How the hell do you lose to Greece?

Dunno, ask Spain, Portugal, France and Czech...

Anyway statistics time: The first time Greece continues to the next round of a tournament, they win it.

 

[Chakan]

So no replay

 

[xenist]

Extra salty tears tonight.

I'm gonna collect them and use them for pickling.

Eat it haters.

 

[Raist]

Someone just post a gif so that the whole "he tripped himself lulz" nonsense can stop.

 

[mysocksarepink]

that final penalty kick

WE OUTCHEA GREECE

oh man, I still have chills.

 

[Raven Prime]

so a semi-finalist out of Holland/Greece/Mexico/Costa Rica?

The Netherlands.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Samaras penalty worst thing to happen to Africa since Toto

Wtf?

 

[PoemOfTheLastMoment]

The beauty of football... even a shitty team like Greece can make it to the knockout rounds. This is the third time the Ivorians have been denied a chance to go through to the last 16.

 

[zroid]

I guess I need to see the penalty from more angles. Still not totally sure what happened.

 

[Disagree Guy]

I'll jump on that wagon.

Next stop, entertaining football

 

[John Dunbar]

Wtf?

yeah man, that's a great song.

 

[FootballFan]

I reminded and watched again.

2nd and 3rd angle show its definitely a penalty.

Sucks man.

But it was not injusticia

I meant rewinded here.

anyways, watched it 4 times now. Penalty it was unfortunately.

Sampras goes for the shot and as he lifts his leg it gets hit by the defenders leg. Kinda like an ankle tap in rugby.

 

[Goldrusher]

Where's the gif of this?

 

[trixx]

Anyone have the replay of the foul? It looks like it was actually a foul

 

[Jimmyfenix]

WHERE YOU AT, MY FRIENDS

HAHAHAHA

SAMARAS REDEEMED

Congratulations!

 

[Raist]

Wtf?

Easy group but Colombia looks like the realest team. They did their job.

GREECE SAVES SOUTHERN EUROPE

 

[Verano]

oh please the US could have just said "fuck it who gives a shit about this game" and let Panama win easily.

You yanks with your hypothesis and theoretical narratives. Pathetic really. You could plainly see Panamas defense become loose towards the end it's as clear as Suarez bite on chilleni

 

[Wolfie5]

Wait, 4 South America teams are through, but they are going to face each other all the way to semis. That is just unlucky.

 

[criesofthepast]

so biting is bad but diving without getting touched is okay

You are smarter than this post dude. Not even a comparison.

 

[zroid]

The Ivory Coast defender kicked his foot, and then Samaras tripped and kicked his other leg

Hmm I see, yeah I need to get another look at it I guess.

 

[DJ88]

Even ESPN can't spell Colombia right!
