Tyldesley really does need to shut his ridiculous face.

 

You really do think given the progress of interactive/customisable television you'd get the option to hear the crowd/game without commentary. The take-up of such an option would be overwhelming. Properly ruins good football at times.

Real great attacking football in the last ten minutes of the Spain/Chile game.

 

Apparently they "played out the draw" according to ITV's stellar commentary team. Must have missed Chile's equaliser.

No clue what they were looking at, end to end stuff.

Oh well at least Chile are through.

 

First COMNEBOL loss of the tournement. They should take away a place from Europe or Africa and give them another.

 

Who would they give it to? There's only 10 teams in CONMEBOL, 5 already in the Cup. I'd say that's pretty impressive representation already. Doing an incredible job this WC.

This is gonna sound reeeeaaaallllyyyy boring, but here we go.

 

Why did the referee play advantage for Spain's second goal when he was going to send the lad off?

 

If the lad had cleared Iniesta's shot off the line and the referee had waited for the next break in play then he'd have had to send the lad off after he'd prevented a goal for doing something prior to preventing the goal which would surely have been no sort of advantage at all?

 

I always thought that you weren't allowed to play advantage if you were going to show a red card for the foul in question?  Or does that only hold for straight red cards?  Or am I just havering nonsense?

 

Can anybody clarify?

It was a bit tongue in cheek, but COMNEBOL and Asia will be demanding more spots from FIFA. Asia are obviously not that good, but with South Korea and Japan advancing countries like China will be pushing the population argument, whereas South America will be pushing the quality argument. Both will be saying that Europe and Africa don't deserve the represnetation they already have.
