World Cup Notes

So if, in 2006, Italy needed a dive in the penalty area and some help from their mommythe referee to beat Australia...

and in 2010, Italy needed a dive in the penalty area and some help from their mommythe referee to tie New Zealand...

what happens in 2014 - they need some help from the referee just to get a late consolation goal against Fiji?

Meanwhile, the way things are going, they should rename the tournament, the America's cup based on the way teams from the Americas have been sailing through the first round. I guess it won't last but so far North and South America are unbeaten against the rest of the world (Mexico one win and one tie, U.S. two ties, Chile beat Honduras, Brazil is 1-0, Argentina is 2-0, Uruguay and Paraguay both have a win and a tie).

  • Yes, I should be careful. These days, making a European (or anyone) cry appears to be a straight red card offense!

    Well, they (Eastern Hemisphere) got one today with Spain's 2-0 win over Honduras. But I guess if they couldn't get a win with their best against our worst, they would really have had problems :)
