Ulysses Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 In the modern era, the final has certainly been won more often than not by the first side to reach it; AFAIK, the World Cup final has only been won twice by the first team to reach it - in 1982 and 2006.

The Old Tolbooth Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 John Collins v Holland at Euro 96. Joe Jordan v Wales in 1978 qualifying. No player in the world would've done anything different to Suarez: now he can't take a pen, misses the semi if Uruguay make it, but his country needed him to do that. Oh he absolutely did what had to be done mate, no doubt about it. If Uruguay make the final they will get raped silly by the Dutch as almost all of their defence is out injured and now half of their only goal threat is gone too.

ToadKiller Dog Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Good result for me as a few quid on e/w for Uruguay making the final , A real brave performance from Ghana sore one for them , but great Drama which again points to why football is the best spectator sport by miles . Thought Childes a bit hard on the Uruguayan sent of it was more of a reaction than cheating ,thought he could have headed it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

world_3 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Daylight robbery, handball on the goal line that prevents a goal should result in a goal being awarded as well as a red card for the perpetrator. Don't they do that in rugby if a blatant foul prevents a try? But even so Ghana were by far the better team and should have sown it up beforehand. Apart from the excellent Diego Forlan the wrong team is through to the semis. Oh well, tomorrow afternoon should be a good game, with the chance of an epic punch-up should the Argies lose.

leginten Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Listen to these Cocks! GTF ITV! Delighted. It's unbelievable. Quite why the clowns on the BBC and ITV continue to paint themselves into corners, I have no idea. They've decided that the whole world wanted an African team in the semis - for reasons best known to themselves - and now they're seething. Ghana had their chance and they blew it.

Malinga the Swinga Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 No point in Ghana winging about result. The guy had a free shot at goal from 12 yards and couldn't keep his nerve, therefore tough, you lose and Suarez is hero. Still can't understand how Forlan didn't make it in England as he is a class player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJGJ Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 What is it with ITV becoming the Ghana national broadcasting corporation. Great game and of course penalties are a lottery but their attempts to portray Uraguay as the bad boys are pathetic -- Andy Townsend super idiot stating one match ban not enough -- flagrant cheating -- no different from bringing a man down in the box or any other foul in the box but oh no they have to try and tar them as somehow a disgrace.

Martin_T Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Found myself supporting Uruguay, even in spite of having Ghana in the work sweep, largely because the Chiles and Tyldsley are such wallopers. It's a huge pity Suarez will miss the semi final though. An amazing achievement for Uruguay, a country with a smaller population than Scotland, to have reached the Semi Final in the modern era.

shaun.lawson Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 This this and this. I hope Holland hammer them They will lose the semi-final. That's a cert I'd say. Tonight was their final, and they came through because they had balls of steel, and had to take on an entire continent in the process. Ghana had the chance to win it. They couldn't. If that had been England on the receiving end, everyone on here would be wetting themselves with laughter. A nation of three million people, with two World Cups, 14 Copa Americas and two Olympic titles has just reached another World Cup semi-final; and that's incredible. Also... Uruguay lost the 2007 Copa America semi against Brazil - a game they were the better side in throughout - on penalties. Uruguay lost the 2004 Copa America semi against Brazil - another marvellous contest - on penalties. And they lost the 2006 World Cup qualifying play-off to Australia... on penalties. Sorry, but they've suffered enough; and Ghana only got through the first round because of a disgraceful refereeing display in Australia-Serbia. I feel desperately, desperately sorry for Gyan, who's been one of the players of the tournament, and Ghana have been superb. Uruguay will be hated throughout the world as a result of this anyway (curious, given Argentina weren't hated after the Hand of God by anyone except the English); but they'll be partying in Montevideo, and so they should be. Their team never lies down, never gives up, and does not know how to lose. Oh, and PS. It was never, ever a free kick to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-Dizzle Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Maybe someone who loves football enough not to cheat? Not you obviously. Have you ever played a competitive sport? I seriously doubt it, if you can't empathise with Suarez. Maybe have a word with Mensah for elbowing every player he's marked in this tournament, if you feel like getting all high and mighty. p.s. Owned. I'm trying very hard, but I can't imagine how it would be to literally be Ghanan right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N User Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Suarez did the right thing. He knows he'll get sent off for it but he has to do it to give his team a chance. It's not cheating - the rules state the punishment and he takes it as per the rules. If you want to discuss injustice - Why did Uruguay not get a penalty for Pantsil's trip in the box (might this have been a goal scoring opportunity) ? What was the Ghanian free kick which led to the red card for? - it didn't look like there was any contact on the player. Ghana were the home team and got a lot of homer decisions tonight (reminded me of but not as blatent as South Korea in 02) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
