Probably the worst World Cup i've had the pleasure of watching.
There have been far too many dodgy decisions, mistakes from goalkeepers and those bloody horns.  |

It's a quite boring world cup indeed.
Anyway, since Italy was thrown out early (and definitely deserving it, since it was a pathetic theme), I now support Germany. _________________ "How you dare, you fool? I shall return and then it is you who will die!" |

Dude...it's never THAT bad
After seeing England knocked out I'm supporting Uruguay. I'm basically Uruguayan anyway....I flew over it once and everything, saw it with my own eyes! |

Well... I dunno if they can do that really. I mean he handled the ball on the line, got sent off, penalty awarded, one match ban - pretty standard punishment. The fact Ghana missed the penalty and lost the game is neither here nor there. He shouldn't be punished further because Gyan bottled the penalty. One of those things. _________________ Lemon/EAB Super League 2013: Round 6 - Arcade Pool

Nah, they can't.
I heard they might give him a two game ban, but i think that was because it was against an African Team.Probably wouldn't have considered it if it was against a non African Nation.
I'd bring in a new rule for such situations.Blatant Handball on the Goal line deserves more than a one game ban in such short Tournaments, it would make them think twice. |
