Blue said:If there's anyone I lost respect for this year, it's for FIFA as a whole. They govern the single biggest sport in the world, yet they're the weakest governing body of all sports. Would it kill them to start integrating technology into the way refs make calls? Would it kill them to hire good refs? FIFA needs to shape up, and they've needed to for a while. They don't do anything about bad calls anymore.
I agree, that's all I have to say.
Every cup is going to have its fair share of fouls, like 2002, probably one of the most controversial WCs ever, but I still consider it to be the best. In terms of game play, this wasn't even close to being the best year. France and Italy shouldn't be in the final, both of their teams heavily relied on diving. Brazil came too far for a team that seemed like they didn't even care, a lot of good teams were sent home too early. I really thought Australia had the potential to be one of the best teams this year, but they were sent home early on a bogus call.
I was mad in that Australia game, they were screwed over on that call. I mean maybe if kind of looked like a foul but this was not even close, of course we have replays and the refs don't but that's what they are...refs.
Well, Germany wins third place, they did a good job. Now I just sit and wait for the final match. I hope this game is a good one, I'm expecting a good one.
