Guest je85 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Regarding Suarez is it cheating? The way I see it he used the rules and took the punishment, a professional foul. It's morally questionable but not cheating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Luis Suarez is a despicable cheating cunt. On par with Maradona and Thierry Henry that is. He did what he had to do to give his team a chance. Any professional would have done the same imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Roger Kint Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Time for FIFA to review that law. (Gosh, isn't this tournament quite a revolution?) In cricket, if the ball's going to hit the stumps and you stop it with your leg, you're OUT. You don't get a 'Free Hit.' You get the f--- out. It's a wicket. In basketball, it's known as 'goaltending' and the basket is given. In football, you get a penalty?! FFS. Regardless of whether that was a freekick or not, this brings another law into the spotlight. Of course, you'd need to rip and burn Hawk Eye from the cricket and tennis broadcasters' computers to prove the ball was actually going to go over the line and in. Actually i had this argument during last season. The 'penatly try' in rugby was my point that time though. Simply give it anyway and punish the player yellow/red whatever FIFA decide should happen.

Skeletor Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Why is Desailly Mr. Ghana anyway? He chose to be French. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Precisely. The attacking team clearly has done enough to score a goal. If it's stopped illegally, eject the b4stard and it counts as a goal. Suddenly you won't have South Americans (I'm looking at you, Nobby, at White Hart Lane) (although you were unlucky) (and I love you) going down with what CSI has taught us is known as 'defensive wounds' on the hands and fingers.

Guest Roger Kint Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Why is Desailly Mr. Ghana anyway? He chose to be French. Ironically the French players the past 20 years have set African football back more than anything else, the Desaillys may shout for them now but God knows what a massive name like his could have done back then. When you see how many from Ghana, Angola, Senegal etc that were top class and went for France its a shame imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Also, how clueless did Abreu look? When they took Cavani out I thought "good sub" since Cavani was pretty ineffectual, but then they probably played with 10 men. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordieglory Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Luis Suarez = Legend He's a piece of s***. Hope the Washington sniper escapes jail and puts 2 to the back of his head the goofy piece of crap. Give over, you fucking numpty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Snrub Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Aye, should of just been awarded a goal. Always had Suarez down as a horrible bastard he's mearly confirmed his status. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a poor mans Heskey. Saying that he should have won a pen when Mensah tripped him and that pen thats just cheeky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 In a perfect world a goal would have been given and Suarez would still have been sent off. Time for a rule change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Suarez went from zero to hero there imo. If he hadn't "saved" that it would have been over for Uruguay. If the penalty would have been in, he would have been slaughtered by the press I think. So, he saved it, pen wasn't in = hero. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Also, I think the rule is fine. The way it played out at this ending seemed imperfect but we would open a big can of worms if we awarded automatic goals. Can be clear in this case, but it's not always going to be so clear that it was going in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that's why I said FIFA would need to buy a HawkEye license and, you know, approve video / animated replays to determine each case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can be clear in this case, but it's not always going to be so clear that it was going in. I can see the point but I guess a goal should only be given if it is clear scenario which the ref/linesman can decide on. When less clear, a penalty and red card should be sufficient. Also not sure if a goal and a red card is fair, I mean if you give the goal, should you still punish the player? In this game the red card was of no consequence because it came at the last moment, but if it happened early on...then that combination of a goal + red card would seem to punish the offending team twice? I realize I just contradicted my earlier post where I asked for more serious punishment, I blame the inconsistency on my hatred for the cunt Suarez Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
