but I enjoy them though... kinda like watching racing for the wrecks... haha

But yeah the suspense was good for most of the game, but I started anticipating the PKs by the 100th minute or so. I saw the Portugal/England PK series which was really fun, wanted to see another...

i hate cards/fights.... or at least how it's been in this world cup.. it breaks up the game and ruins the flow of the game itself..... and at times it creates bad play or a period in the game when neither team is doing anything because the flow is broken so many times due to stupid pointless fouls that should just be played though.....

I wish it was 1-1 going into OT or something... so there was something to break up the drought in the middle...

wasn't going to happen with two of the best goal keepers in the world.... both of those keepers are in the top 5 easily.... buffon is pretty much the best... lehmann is like top 3 or 4 when he's on his game... however he gets into periods sometimes when he's absolutely horrendous...

unfortunently thats how portugal plays... they are a bunch of cheats/crybabies.... the wind blows and they'll take a dive to get a foul and a free kick...or they'll stall the game on purpose...

it's quite unfortunate becuase you're actually supposed to get a yellow car for diving, however the refs haven't been calling it unless you dive in the box... it's a shame and has somewhat ruined the world cup this time around.. the refs are horid...
