What an absolute travesty. Today was a great day if you think soccer is a joke

I was so sure he was going to hit a fourth post of the day.

That might be the most tense, exciting match ever played by Greece in WC or Euro, including '04... maybe it's just the immediacy of the win but what drama.

Why? you can't foul people at anytime.

Ivorians shouldn't be giving up 4 on 2s at the death.

Yeah, just saw it again. Good call.

The psychology of sports. Attack, attack to get the goal you need. Then when you get it, abandon the offense and defend, defend inviting the opposition to respond.

Regardless, they were the better team on this day, the Ivorians were counting on individual talent to see them through, I thought the Greeks were much better overall.

So yeah ... the contact was as a result of the Greek player bringing his leg into the stationary leg of the CIV player.

Is that a foul?

yes cause the leg missed the ball and can't be there.

General rule of soccer fouls, you can't block an area of space that is not yours.

Suarez rolling around on the ground in fake agony holding his teeth is one of the funniest things I think I have ever seen.
