Italy and Spain suffered incredibly biased referees who nullified goals and let Korean players do what they wanted in the field, the Korean goalie did even place himself one meter before the line goal in the penalty shootout against Spain with the referee saying nothing.

Tend to make it to the second round? Pretty sure the announcers said this is only the 2nd time they've made it past the first round--and first not on home soil.

How many Koreas are there? More , or less than a dozen?

David Munch · 06-23-2010, 04:31 AM

Heh, the french coach didn't even want to greet the south african coach after the match... How insane is that..

Sore losers feel immune to conventions when those hit too close to them...

The amazing thing about the goal was how the goalkeeper managed to get out of the way! Still, they all count.

Rooney has just hit the post of an open goal!!
