  • PK for Ghana on ANOTHER BAD CALL.

    2-1 Ghana.

    Absolute rubbish

        • Man, Polak got screwed...

          America better win their damn game, by the way. Italy is up 1 and has a one-man advantage, so they're doing their part.

          • I've never seen a sport where a referee has such a direct effect on the outcome of games.

            ACK!

            • No if only the refs weren't ****ing retards, then maybe we'll have a chance. That was absolute bull****. Grrrr. If that costs us the game I'm gonna be pissed.

              • Polak got screwed? Both yellow cards were completely legitimate. The second one was a clear, heavy attack from behind. Read the rules!

                • Oh, and I AM impartial enough to acknowledge that the penalty against the US was complete BS.

                  • The first one was horse****. The Italian didn't even sell it well; his writhing on the ground was completely over the top.

                    • Didn't look like a penalty to me. Mind you, Dempsey's goal may have been a smidgeon offside under the current interpretations.

                      • This is the same ref that handed out cards the other day like they were candy.

                        • I feel sorry for team USA now, the penalty was rubbish. Pimpong should be banned for a game if Ghana progress, but knowing FIFA they're not to eager on changing the given verdicts. See Asamoah Gyans ban for this game.

                            Wonderful.... then we're definitely screwed.

                              I just replayed the highlight, it looks to me that while he was past the defenders before the pass, he was still behind the ball, Beasley was that far past the defense.

                                True, his reaction was over the top, but even disregarding that IMO the foul itself was mean enough for a yellow card.
                                Also, if I already got one yellow card I'd not be so stupid and attack an adversary without good reason from behind in his own half.
                                So, basically, he was sent off for stupidity.
