Gentlemen, please. Let's not squabble over such things. What's done is done and it doesn't really matter. The important thing is the Italians have been eliminated.

A tournament that has no regard for sportsmanship and fair play is no place for the Italians.

Mate are you guys serious? The Italians wrote the handbook on that stuff. As for the World Cup most pundits have it as the best ever and I agree.

The angle I saw was even more damning, shows him step straight across his line and take his leg out from behind.

You have my apologies. He still dived (as soccer players do) but contact was made and it is a penalty.
2012 HAPPENED!!!!!!!

I thought it was quite obvious I wasn't being serious.

Crazy Talk.

When you have Greece, in their current capacity, progressing further than Italy and Spain you know there's something not quite right about the tournament  ;)

And just for the record, it wasn't a penalty

Actually I think you'll find half the Greek side play in Italy themselves, the rest have all been playing Champions League football, the talent is clearly there.

I'm tipping this one stings pretty bad DU, chin up, only another 4 years to go. This is what the second time running Italy has failed to progress from the group stage? I can understand your bitterness. :))

FWIW the Italians were sucked in by the Uruguayans who will try any dirty tactic to put their opponents off their game. Italy got dragged down to their level and paid the price.

p2c I was kidding  ;), If it cant be the Italians then glad that the Greeks are still in there. As for the Italians we had 65 % of the play in the first half and failed to capitalize. I said 2 weeks ago that our defense was sloppy.  You cant go defense for an entire game, ll it takes is one slip up and your stuffed. Some poor discipline whinging by our striker irked the hell out of me.

at least there's still some decent European representation. These south Americans have had a bulk of luck run their way thus far.

It just doesn't feel like a World cup.
