Of course no one would care if they lose, because then neutral don't have to watch another boring game. It was boring as hell to watch Greece/Spain progressed through 1-0 all tournament long.

The theatrics are hilarious lol
Chiellini should have swung his elbow back hard enough to break his nose.
That's fair enough, I'm just saying that a lot of people do not enjoy that brand of football. Its the same reason that Allardyce, Pulis et al get shit.
Celtic got shit for it when we beat Barca so I can understand your frustration but I can also understand that it isn't very good to watch for a lot of people.

Nice name you have tho.
Lol at the Greece hate, they play to their strength, i can't hate that, sure it's not fun to watch but they play to win, not to please, not every team can play jogo bonito.
I was actually rooting for them back in 2004 just for the european meltdowns and them being the underdogs.

he had a horrible half, Italy did right to sub him for the 2nd half before he got himself booked again.

I doubt there was any intent, he was going for the ball IMO.
well, intent aint everything
no red there didnt bother me that much but if that dude wasnt subbed soon it was 11 vs 9

No, but the lack of intent makes that a yellow because of dangerous play. Just like when you lift your foot face high. It looks bad, but that's never a red card.
This.
It's no wonder Buffon and De Rossi both used hard words against the young players. I'm just sad this was the last world cup match for many awesome players.

looks like a cross-up, would not block

Nah, that's one of the freakiest things I've ever seen. What is going on with his (or its) mouth?
I don't particularly like the way Greece play, but being defensive is a valid way to play. As other people have said, Greece don't stand a chance playing toe-to-toe with other, more talented teams. What matters in the end is they win. If opposing teams cannot break them down, that's their problem, not Greece's.
It's been talked about some. General consensus seems to be that even tho the guy wasnt applying any bone breaking pressure or anything, he still pulled stubs on the leg a meter away from the ref. It wasnt NASTY, but it was text book red.

Tiger knee cross ups... Man, football is evolving!
Be prepared for something much funnier :
WTF LOL... is this seriously photoshopped??
I thought easy yellow but to give straight red was nuts. The ref wasn't calling shit before that.
This may be the first time I feel sorry for Italy with that red card and the vampire bite

This would be the greatest gift ever if Balotelli had a Mario hat on, and a little score popped up like when you squish a Goomba in the Mario games lol

I like how the kid (monster?) can't decide on which moves he's going to do. He knows he's going to stick his tongue out but he's not sure if he should pound his chest which air humping or pull his shirt up and gyrate his hips like Beyonce.
I'll post here some statistics I've got in another forum:
Atualizado | Actualizado | Updated
Ranking de público até o momento (+1.9 milhão)
Ranking de público hasta el momento (+1.9 million)
Attendance ranking so far (+1.9 million)
24-Jun-2014 | 15h BRT
NOTES:
I. The source of these figures is fifa.com. All are official FIFA numbers.
II. The Occupancy that is here shown is based on the availible seat (according to the # of tkt FIFA placed for sale in each venue, not in the venue capacity). All venues are bigger than and have room for about 3.000 to 5.000 more seats, however FIFA decreased the capacity to make room for the press stands, VIP and invited areas, gratuity areas, etc.
III. The public is not restricted to remain seated all times. It is normal for the public to stand at the panoramic hallways, look for friends seating in other areas of the stadia, stand in bars and restaurants inside the stadia, etc.
IV. According to Fifa they scan every ticket from regular fans to VIP fans, so they believe their attendance figures are foolproof. This also confirms that Fifa report people in the stadium as opposed to paid attendance.

Bloody hell the Greece penalty looked like such a dive at first, but the replays showed it was a definite penalty.
Greece getting through on basically one good performance shows just how weak Group C was though. With Japan and Ivory Coast disappointing, Columbia cruised through and Greece got through with ultra defensive play and a bit of luck with a penalty in stoppage time in their last group game.
Still think their Euro 2004 run was a bit of a fluke so I don't see them getting past CR in the next round.
CR is a dream run I can get behind. Them making the final 8 would just about be one of the things people least expected before this tournament started, and they play enjoyable to watch football as well.
