wjag Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 The more I watch soccer, the more convinced I become that they need to amend the offsides rule.
Iron Crotch Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Mexican keeper Ochoa is ridiculous. I can see why he is rumored to clubs like Barcelona, Athletico, and Chelsea. Dude is money.
wjag Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 And there is the goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
26CornerBlitz Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Mexican keeper Ochoa is ridiculous. I can see why he is rumored to clubs like Barcelona, Athletico, and Chelsea. Dude is money. No chance on that one!
wjag Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 No chance on that one! That one is on the coach for sending them into Lindy Ruff mode.
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 This place in DC: http://www.juliasempanadas.com Amazing. Just amazing. Always wanted to eat a meat pocket in DuPont Circle....... We want a save....
Eleven Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Man, Mexico just finds a new way to lose each time.
Iron Crotch Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Straight dive. What a ###### way for Mexico to lose this match.
26CornerBlitz Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Nice dive.. I hate this sport Went down awfully easy. No embellishment there. :rolleyes:
qwksndmonster Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 What a ###### disgrace. Robben dives in the box all game and the ref rewards his last effort with the game. Terrible.
Iron Crotch Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 The worst part of the sport is a penalty in the box is basically an automatic goal. Huge incentive to dive.
Eleven Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) Nice dive.. I hate this sport I'm very mixed on this. I initially thought it was an obvious penalty, and then I saw a replay angle that made me doubt it. I want to see it some more. The worst part of the sport is a penalty in the box is basically an automatic goal. Huge incentive to dive. Except when it isn't. Huge incentive for Suarez to cheat and get Uruguay into the semis (2010). Edited June 29, 2014 by Eleven
qwksndmonster Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) The first time the ref saw Robben dive in the box, he should've given him a yellow card. And 11, if you think that's a penalty kick I'm deducting internet points from you. Edited June 29, 2014 by qwksndmonster

North Buffalo Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 The worst part of the sport is a penalty in the box is basically an automatic goal. Huge incentive to dive. Agreed bad, but Penalty kicks in elimination round is worse. Both reasons why I would rather watch hockey.
Eleven Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) I'm reading a lot about how Marquez stepped on Robben's foot. I still want to see the replay. Here it is. Robben may have embellished, but that's a foul all day and every day. Gotta be careful when you're that close to a guy like Robben in the box. http://gfycat.com/Kn...nestIriomotecat I don't even have a problem with the embellishment; Robben was prevented from completing the play even if he didn't have to fall so dramatically, and he had every right to get the referee's attention. We see the same stuff in the NHL all the time. Edited June 29, 2014 by Eleven
Peppy22 Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 Robben was looking for that touch. A ref with balls doesn call it a pk. However netherlands should have gotten one in the first half.

We see the same stuff in the NHL all the time. If he didn't get stepped on, he's still not getting to that ball. His last heavy touch made it an easy clearance for Mexico. You can't call a game because of incidental contact in the box like that. I also don't think he got stepped on very hard.. If he plants his right foot instead of flailing it out he stays up.
drnkirishone Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 wonder what the % is on PK conversions. just seems grossly slanted to scoring. hard for me to take a sport seriously when they tell a player ok your going to be 12 yards away and the goalie has to cover the broad side of the barn
Huckleberry Posted June 29, 2014 Report Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) What a ###### disgrace. Robben dives in the box all game and the ref rewards his last effort with the game. Terrible. Dive and embellishment yes, but also idiotic for the defender to stick out his leg like that. Penalty always. Mexican coach ruined their game after 0 - 1 , we went to 5 defenders leaving his midfield overwhelmed and with one striker :doh: Edited June 29, 2014 by Heimdall
