[gutter_trash]

so this how this tourney get pan out

 

[SunhiLegend]

Spain 1-0 Netherlands

 

[jtb]

dive

 

[Filaipus]

LOL IT WAS NOT. THIS CUP WILL BE DECIDED BY PENALTIES HAHA.

he put his leg in the defender leg, so funny

 

[Mangoverboard]

Costa dive too.

Or at the very least, it wasn't the tacklers fault

 

[Tugatrix]

Yeah because those Spanish players sure don't dive. :lol

Come on don't destroy my joke

 

[Scum]

Alonso!

Oh god these refs.

That looked very soft.

They've been fucking shocking.

 

[inky]

Damn, that replay. That wasn't a penalty at all.

3 for 3 this WC

 

[Pryce]

Pathetic.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

Just like that Altidore one, stood on a moving leg. No idea if that's a foul in either direction.

 

[caffeinated]

Penalty seems legit. There's a contact.

 

[hylje]

Not liking the way it was ruled but I'm taking every goal Spain makes.

 

[Kurt Angle]

GG fifa

great start to the tournament

 

[sneakypete]

costa stepped on defender and flopped over.. penalty?

 

[Maidenpool?]

It looks like Costa intentionally stepped on the defenders leg, then threw his arms up

 

[Fox318]

wow

 

[Peru]

I did not see any contact. wtf?

There was contact

 

[Frillen]

Dunno about you but from the last angle they showed, it was definitely a pen.

 

[LNBL]

Fuck off, bullshit penalty

 

[Ensirius]

That really wasn't a penalty.

Come on man there was contact

Vamos España!!!

 

[Fergie]

Netherlands need to take their chances.

 

[Bold One]

Spain, diving c***

 

[Ingeniero]

GOOOOOOOOL

 

[jimbobsmells]

So he stood on the guys leg as he was sliding away and fell over. Hmmmm.

 

[TheFatOne]

The refs have been garbage in every single game so far. Just embarrassing.

 

[Zvonimir Boban]

Man, first that nothing yellow for de Guzman and then a penalty for the most obvious dive. Fucking hell

 

[dakun]

lol what a joke this World Cup is turning out to be.

 

[Funky Papa]

football is dead

 

[Anoregon]

I just realized my EPSN stream is like a half minute behind the rest of you guys. Fart city.

 

[Tekniqs]

there was still contact...the defender stretched out his leg. at the start of his slide, it was trailing well behind.

edit: I see the hyperboles isn't solely used to described just Brazil lol...is this how every world cup thread is going to be?

 

[Zabojnik]

You surely don't believe that yourself. He's a cunt but that's not the reason Brazil hates him lol

Of course I don't believe that. Well, maybe a little bit. I want to believe, that's for sure.

 

[bud]

costa should've been booked. awful decision by the ref.

 

[Nemesis121]

3 games 2 diving PK awarded lol....

 

[FeD.nL]

Fuck these fucking refs

 

[sazabirules]

The Spanish player was the one that initiated the contact after the defender was already falling.

 

[industrian]

These World Cup refs are shockingly bad so far.

But not as bad as the Dutch trying to keep possession.

 

[CaseyTappy]

Fuck that, a dive !

 

[DominoKid]

That was definitely a penalty. Costa baited him.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Flops, flops everywhere. Good job Cp3Nobli.

 

[Xando]

Wow these refs are ridiculous.

 

[FootballFan]

Lol damn fifa.

I love football.

 

[yuraya]

lolol smh

 

[Alpende]

Not a penalty, De Vrij was already sliding and Costa stepped on him.

 

[ShaoranWright]

Just like that Altidore one, stood on a moving leg. No idea if that's a foul in either direction.

it's absolutely NOT foul

 

[gutter_trash]

bullshit

 

[Juz]

Costa himself stepped on De Vrij when he was slipping

Bullshit call

 

[Broder Salsa]

Can't wait

 

[Kaizen]

Come on man there was contact

Vamos España!!!

Are you kidding me? This is bullshit

 

[warthog]

FIFA, there's this new technology you can use to prevent mistakes like this and it's called TV.
