Ref was Spanish! France kicked Spain's butt remember? I can think of more occasions where he tried to help the Brazilians rather than the French. France was the superior team no doubt

It's not about the ref being spanish....it would be totally being short-sighted to think the ref cared any about france...for all he cared, the french can go lick themselves. But this is about Germany!!!
The germans probably gave him a waterfront lot in Monte Carlo and a lifetime supply of cuban cigars....."we don't wanna play brazilians...make them lose."
It would have been so interesting to see how the ref behaved if England hadda won the game today....

I don't think any claim to France being a "superior" team is warranted - they simply had a good day. No, the ref was not bought. He called a good, consistent game.

ok michael b...someone should step up & stop you from spreding mindless crap....just like english football whom i suspect you support. English as usual lost in the QF & as usual blame the ref...try balming your spineless coach. Or maybe Gerrard & Lampard " world's best" they took stupid penalties...why not the overinflated popstar-all-casanova-no-football David Beckham who ran away...or that bullish Rooney whose firmest shot in the match was the push on Ronaldo.
Funny since you know soooooo much about refs being bought why doent FA buy some they are rich...or maybe all your money was finished after paying off refs in 1966 ?
At the end...ENGLAND ARE OUT..AGAIN...SEE YOU IN 2010 ( NOT MORE THAN QF THOUGH !!!)

If there is no doubt about it is that Medina Cantalejo is the most corrupt referee of all. I think the serie A teams would love this cheater to be with them. This world cup is stolen, now we will see who will bid more for it!
@Val: If Medina Cantalejo is teh most fair referee, then all referees are corrupt!

oh i guess beating england in penalty kicks is superior, im sorry but if you beat brazil 1-0 in a big pressure game like this and manage to make them look like a mls soccer team you truly are superior

Good point. Makes sense. Pointing fingers is significant of those who lose games. It is ALWAYS not fair. I have been there.
