[QUOTE=Bradyns;45370726]Handball in the box.. Better give a throw-in. Ref of the year.[/QUOTE] Omg ref wtf are you doing please stop. [editline]12th July 2014[/editline] Like please FIFA change refs right now this is insane. [editline]12th July 2014[/editline] Brazil should have a pk right now.

[QUOTE=Bradyns;45370726]Handball in the box.. Better give a throw-in. Ref of the year.[/QUOTE] That wasn't actually hands though

Yellow to Oscar wtf dude??

Literally the two goals in the game were unjustly given (foul outside box and offside for other one)

[QUOTE=mobrockers;45370773]That wasn't actually hands though[/QUOTE] Earlier it was, not that simulation kerfuffle a second ago.

The greatness of this world cup is becoming overshadowed by the awful refs selected.

[QUOTE=Bradyns;45370790]Earlier it was, not that simulation kerfuffle a second ago.[/QUOTE] Ah yes, that one [editline]12th July 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=splenda;45370799]The greatness of this world cup is becoming overshadowed by the awful refs selected.[/QUOTE] Literally every world cup ever.

This one has been especially bad IMO.

Our Aussie ref is pretty card happy; He's a shit ref in the A-League.

[QUOTE=splenda;45370821]This one has been especially bad IMO.[/QUOTE] Can't say I agree, awful refs are in every single competition, football is just a difficult game to ref, with the big ass field and lack of electronic assistance.

You are probably right seeing how I am used to american sports having electronics dictate every play and upwards to 5 minutes spent making sure all fouls are called correctly. :v:

I hope they're prepping the riot squad.. Brazilian crowd is boo'ing. [editline]13th July 2014[/editline] #3

The fun never ends!

That extra time is just salt in Brazil's wounds. [editline]12th July 2014[/editline] And that too.

RIP 3-0 How embarassing.

GG brazil

Aww he is putting in the other gk. <3 [editline]12th July 2014[/editline] The boos are real.

Every Dutch player has now got a chance to spend time on the pitch at the World Cup. That's a lovely touch <3

Gg Netherlands.

The Dutch have come on leaps and bounds in two years. Brazil have collapsed in just one, it'll be interesting to see where they go from here.

The referee was total shit. Same guy that gave an unjust penalty against Spain I believe. He was VERY pro-Brazil. Love that we still won 3 to 0, even with such a biased referee. Currently a player interview here in the Netherlands where the guys are asked if they still feel like this was a watch they didn't really want to play. And he goes, yeah sure we won, but it's still a shit match. We wanted, and I think deserved to play, for first place. And I agree.

I wouldn't say the ref was pro Brazil at all. He was bad, but bad for both sides.

[QUOTE=Pr0fane;45371027]The only way to go from rock bottom is up?[/QUOTE] I'd agree but you'd be surprised at how long a team can languish for.

[QUOTE=splenda;45371058]I wouldn't say the ref was pro Brazil at all. He was bad, but bad for both sides.[/QUOTE] Well I won't pretend that I have a claim to absolute knowledge. It's just how it came across to me personally.

[QUOTE=Pr0fane;45371093]Well I won't pretend that I have a claim to absolute knowledge.[/QUOTE] WHAT KIND OF GOD ARE YOU?!

[QUOTE=Bradyns;45371118]WHAT KIND OF GOD ARE YOU?![/QUOTE] A crappy one. Also the Dutch narrator of the match is currently praising the Brazilian supporters how they are staying in the stadium to applaud and cheer for the Dutch players , and I have to agree. Absolute kudo's to them for being sportly!

Also, I just saw this on Facebook. [I]"Now they're called 3RA7IL"[/I] :v:

The us broadcast cut off before the medals were given. :(
