Football (Sports) - June 2006

For the POrtugal -England match FIFA cyuld have chosen a referee from Janpan, or Sweden, or from Peru, or from the USA or Canada... from anywhere BUT from a country that could benefit from the weakest team winning. The referee chosen by FIFA for the Portugal -v- England game is from Argentina, a country that could very well face the winners of Portugal/England !! Are we being forced by FIFA to trust a referree not to fall into the the temptation to help what the Argentinian referee considers the weakest team to help his country, Argetnina ? Isn't all this a joke ?! Isn't it asking too much of the Argentinian referee who could be TEMPTED to fall on the side of England in his decisions, to bring to his country the weakest team and the easiest team to win against ? Is it asking too much of FIFA to be METICULOUS with their choices of referee for such a vital match ? You views ?

What is your opinion on the Refereeing and the total number of Cards given in this World Cup?

Personally I think the refereeing has been a bit rediculous this year and that too many matches have been controlled by the referee instead of by the players. Hell, in the travesty that was the America vs. Italy game I'm surprised the REF didn't call a PK to decide the entire match. In my opinion the referee is only suppossed to help the match along and not dictate it. I know it's a fine line but I think this World Cup has been horrible! What do you think?

Who have been the SURPRISES of this World Cup?

I like Ribery, a player I had never heard of before the team rosters were announced. The kid is a warrior and with some polish, will be the next great striker in France. Philippe Senderos is also a great young talent, and his absence may have been the difference in the Ukraine game. Asamoah Gyan will be around for a long time as well, I suspect. Tranquillo Barnetta has enormous potential. Shaka Hislop was the best second-string keeper I have ever seen! I knew Stephen Appiah was good, but he looked a little better than I thought. Fred was pleasing in his short appearance. Maxi Rodriguez has fit nicely into Argentina's attack. Klose is playing better than I guessed he could, and I thought fairly highly of him before! Great work ethic. There have been plenty of unpleasant surprises, notably the officials, but the Cup is humming along and I have a feeling we haven't seen the last of the surprises.

How do referees and soccer players communicate with each other?

I mean for example the referee is Russian, French team, Spanish team. No one understands what the hell is going on. So in the match how do they like talk to each other? In interviews they only speak using their mother-tongue.

Whats with the kids holding hands with the players before the match??

at the begining of every match a bunch of kids hopld hands with the players before the match.
why should the kids be there
is seems as if the players are all paedofiles.

get rid of the kids and have some chicks there instead.

when i look at them i feel this is like encouraging child pornography.
if you dont agree with me u can all go to hell.
