not in the slightest bit!!!
it was because of ricardo's excellent skills as a goalkeeper and england's lack of talent that england lost. even if rooney had been on the field still, the most he could have done was made a penalty kick...and ricardo could have blocked that too.
besides, it takes a whole team to lose a match, not just one player. what i mean is that all of england lost...one player wouldnt have made up for the poor performance of the entire team.

It had nothing to do with Cristiano. Rooney was the culprit. Ronaldo was the innocent party. The reason England went out is because they're p-i-s-h. But also because they can't hit a barn door from 12 yards. I mean how easy is it to take a penalty.
Run up, Kick it hard and to a corner, Goal. So simple!
Typical English though. They'll never win at pens. It's tradition. Ha Ha Ha!!!
Cristiano is a legend!

no, i don't think so. I saw the video like a hundred of times...
After the accident, when ronaldo's saw the man thrown on the grass. He said something to the referee, then Rooney push ronaldo and other guy, the referee saw the reaction of Rooney and he putted the red card.
Maybe if he didn't react like that the referee could give him a yellow card "maybe".
Anyway, i don't think that the problem is ronaldo

NO, it was not Crisy's fault. In soccer there is no " 1 person's fault." its either the whole team or nobody. and thatz the truth.. and actually it wasn't even the whole team's fault it was just meant to be.... I mean without Becks England is LOST and I mean it.. so the moment that Becks went to the bench technically England had a loss... PLUS Cristiano was just playing his role.

Well, yes and no. It's his fault for getting Rooney out, but then in the penalty shootout, England did quite bad. But of course, Ricardo is just too good at saving penalties too. So it was bad luck like always.

Absolutely not! Anyone who thinks it was his fault certainly needs brain surgery! Let's be realistic and stop playing the blaming game!

of course not, owen wasnt playing, rooney played like ronaldinho scored goals for brazil in this cup and beckam couldnt get the ball in
even if the goal was as big as a movie theatre.
england wasnt playing as well as they should

no, but if you are talking about the video that is around the net, when this guy is crying to the referee to show red to Rooney.well, he have something to do with it, even when he is always crying and fixing himself to look well on camera. i guess he deserve to get kick out of the league.
