We shall not talk ill of the dead in here.
Lugano's comments on Chiellini's reaction to the bite: "He completely disappointed me as a man. I admired him."
So you don't care that he chronically flopped on the floor and bear hugged your strikers, but reacting to being bite is when you lose respect for him?
why is diving such an accepted part of the game.

Looks like the battle of the neutrals is coming up.
Win, lose or draw, ARG is through already.
NGA just need to draw to confirm it.
IRN needs to win convincingly against BIH to get through, they still have a chance if NGA loses to ARG based on GD. Can't afford to draw.
BIH can't get through no matter what. Win, and they finish 3rd, even if either ARG or NIG loses/wins/draws.

I don't believe that he left the field, he just sat there and rubbed his dislocated beard until it was fit for play again.

I think we depend on France to beat Ecuador by +3 goals and we need to score +2 goals on Switzerland to make the next round.

What's the italian press saying about the elimination? Fair? Unfair? Italy robbed? "Everybody Hates Suarez"?

Maybe a unsual "promess" to get some support from gaffers might do the trick........ if you know what I mean... "wink, wink".

I saw a paper today that placed the blame squarely on Italy for their lack of proper play

Honduras will qualify. They simply been hustling so far. CONCACAF master race can't be denied.
don't get defensive dude, I'm attacking the dude that made the chart, not Italy.

LOL USA, the amount of time wasting in their games were ridiculous, but eh Klinsmann is their manager, what do you expect?

England have done the same, strangely, and did the same for Lampard's non-goal in 2010. In years gone by, the Godin non-red and Lampard non-goal would have been the main talking points, but everyone's just accepted that we're not good enough now. On the one hand it's good to be realistic, but I do kind of miss going into tournaments with optimism

Let's go Argentina!
Your dude kicked Dempsey in the face and broke his nose and he wasted less time than Meireles and his dislocated beard "injury." Think about that for a second.

Can Nigeria move on even with a loss to Argentina?
If Iran does not win, yes.

So how many Messi bashing posts are we going get for this match?
If Iran doesn't win, and if we win with only one goal and Nigeria doesn't score shit gets complicated.

I think you got your matches mixed up, Dempsey got kicked in the face by a Ghanaian player in Game 1.
Meireles is an old man who chose to play for money (Turkish league) instead of prestige (should have stayed in Chelsea or stay in EPL). You can knock on him, I don't care. It is his last WC

Looks like an Argentine home game. Beautiful.

Yes, if....
1. Bosnia beats or ties Iran
2. Iran wins but only by 1 goal (Nigeria would then tie on GD but since they won the H2H they move on)
Not nearly enough.

To many here, If he doesn't score 20 goals he is shit, if Argentina wins it was just because of Messi, if any other Argentinian scores then lol Messi doesn't do shit!
I'm sorry, you're right you didn't talked about how much Italy dives today. It was yesterday.

Rooting for Nigeria to go through, we need more African teams in the KO rounds.
C'mon Nigeria!
OTOH, if Iran plays well against Bosnia and want that KO spot, then Iran will be whom I'm rooting for to grab that 2nd spot.

They didn't win, it was 0-0 tie.

Sorry, I meant to say, "a dude."
