Losing interest quickly.
Even though I explain how diving and duping the ref is part of the game, I'm really disgusted that refs are of such low quality in the this WC that they actually are being duped. Whatever happened to the good ref like Collina, Frisk that the players were actually scared of and wouldn't dare try anything on them.

Not surprised you're losing interest quickly. I'm a big soccer fan and I've lost interest in this WC. I'm a big Brazil fan and I didn't even to bother the watch them yesterday (that never happens).

It's the worst WC I've ever seen. The players are diving, the refs are incompetant, the ball is too light and gets blasted into row Z, the host team is out, the African teams continue to suck and the seeded teams are struggling. Do we really want the best of the worst and have a Paraguay-Suisse final?
