Zidane is going out on a high

imo figo is a better hasbeen than zidane. And last night, zidane wasnt much use and ronaldo didnt dive that much so i reckon u are all just jumping on bandwagons

portugal sucks!
and so do france and italy, this worldcup is crap:(

i agree zidane wasnt special, but while watching the game it striked me how much ronaldo was falling every time again and again, it was ridiculous

2 more games to go.

I have no idea who i'll be betting...

the penalty was justified.. even if it wasn't, france still deserved to get 100 penalty's for all the fake ass diving/falling/acting shit portugal tried to pull off


I almost forgot.. congrats france! :winkwink:

BAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Suck shit Portugal... Whats even better is that Ronaldo of all people complained after the match saying the ref wasn't being fair...

GO HOME DIRTY SCUM DIVING FUCKERS!!!

A heartbroken Cristiano Ronaldo launched a stinging attack on referee Jorge Larrionda after Portugal crashed out of the World Cup semi-finals courtesy of a 1-0 defeat by France.

Zinedine Zidane netted the game's only goal in the 33rd minute when he neatly stroked a penalty past Ricardo.

Larrionda's decision to point to the spot after Ricardo Carvalho had felled Thierry Henry in the penalty area was not hotly contested. But Ronaldo slammed the referee for not paying Portugal enough respect.

'We played well and did our best but the referee didn't help us,' the 21-year-old Manchester United forward said. 'Everyone who saw the match could see that the referee wasn't fair.

'He should have shown yellow cards but he did not because Portugal is a small country. We just have to carry on working and then we will be a big country.'

CRY LIKE A BITCH!!!

Here is a tip...next time you watch the replay do it with your eyes open :thumbsup

dunefield you should seek professional help...

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.

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!
