still bitter? :( get over it

Saying this penalty was justified is the same saying Iraq had WMD :1orglaugh

Ricardo Carvalho admitted he made contact with Thierry Henry in the incident that allowed Zinedine Zidane's penalty to secure France a 1-0 win over Portugal in last night's World Cup semi-final.

Carvalho admitted he was to blame for the penalty, saying: 'It was my mistake. I know I made contact with Henry but the referee could have played the advantage. He (Larrionda) did their job for them.

Are you blind or simply stupid? The guy even admitted making contact and it was VERY clearly shown in replays. Sure Henry made a meal of it but when you tackle like that in the box you're simply asking for a penalty and it was given.

The biggest downside in the game was that yellow cards were not given for all the real diving were players weren't even touched. IMHO Portugal deserved to win for how the played when they weren't diving, but I'm fucking glad they went out because the diving crap was getting out-of-hand. There's a saying...cheats never prosper.

'We played well and did our best but the referee didn't help us,' the 21-year-old Manchester United forward said

Since when does a referee need to HELP? He is the one that should make sure the match is fair and in control...So he wanted more yellow cards...Lol lol

naw... he's just bitter and from portugal :1orglaugh

you know... maybe ronaldo is right and the referee should have given more cards: STARTING with a RED CARD for RONALDO for all his fake dives :thumbsup

justice has been served!
