I totally disagree...European champs and now World champs...the Dutch tried slowing Spain down with physical play (fouling them constantly) but Spain prevailed despite the dirty play.

whitesoxfan99 Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 I enjoy watching soccer, but wow is the diving just disgraceful by some off the top international teams. There really needs to be more officials on the pitch to prevent that bulls*** from occurring and I don't see any legitimate reason not to add more officials.

zenryan Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Spain was diving all over the field and begging for cards non stop. And then Robben gets mugged and decides not to dive and the ref just ignores it. Puyol should have been sent off right there. The ref was absolute trash tonight.

Having them on the lines doesn't help much, and having them on the pitch only takes up space. Don't expect any significant changes in soccer any time soon.

You add another ref then you might have inconsistent calls on fouls which isnt fair. Instant replay cant work either. Maybe a goal line judge or some type of goal line technology.

Can't you just penalize diving with game suspensions via replay after the games? Hand enough of those out and I would think a lot of guys would hesistate to do it, knowing it will be reviewed on video after the game...

Sonik22 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I'm sad it's over. But overall a pretty good month of soccer, wish Germany or Holland would have won but looking forward to 2014 i think Germany is gonna be a force. Already excited to get the qualifying process started again. Go USA and go Germany!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrimsonWeltall Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 11, 2010 -> 10:48 PM) Having them on the lines doesn't help much, and having them on the pitch only takes up space. Don't expect any significant changes in soccer any time soon. Easy solution: review the cards after the games and any red cards during a game. There's no reason after the infamous Kaka red card that they couldn't have looked at that, removed his red, and given a yellow to the faker. Reviews wouldn't even add any time - they already waste a couple minutes with a bunch of people complaining to the ref. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The integrity of the game is more important than the 'flow', which is already messed up due to injury faking and referee lobbying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 I started a World Cup pool, got about 30 friends to sign up, and I won the whole damn thing! Who does that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chw42 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 It seems like we get a new meme or awesome GIF from every world cup final game. In 06, it was Zidane's headbutt. This year, it's De Jong drop kicking Xabi Alonso. Awesome, just imagine a big hole behind Alonso and Leonidas' face on De Jong's body yelling, "THIS IS SPARTA!".
