They lost me when my Camry accelerated in an unintended way.

That's because your Camry is built in North America.

Brazil v Portugal!!

Wow huge match up today. The biggest of the tournament so far I think.

its big match up with little importance since they both advance regardless right?

Should be interesting to see how Brazil plays without a marquee player Kaka

yes they are both in, unless it ends up EXTREMELY one sided for Brazil, and IC has to absolutely waste N Korea

I dont think its that big, I think the result against NK generated too much excitement for Portugal who is very one sided

but it wouldnt be first time I was wrong this WC, it would be the second, since I thought Denmark could beat Japan :hmm:

2 - 0 Ivory Coast!!!

They are making a run at it. Only need 6 more goals 🙂

 

[ProfJohn]

I wonder how many North Korean players don't go home after this 🙂

 

[bigrash]

Just caught the 2nd Ivory Coat goal. Ivory Coast playing very aggressively.

[GasX]

Yes! Tiago carded for diving!

Not sure it was a foul, but I wouldn't call it a dive either

 

[IceBergSLiM]

Not sure it was a foul, but I wouldn't call it a dive either

definitely a dive

 

[PieIsAwesome]

Looks like everyone wants to be carded this game.

I am loving the English announcer on the ADTHE BBC feed I am watching. He's got a thick Yorkshire accent and strong opinions...

 

[sdifox]

that is a lot of cards. I hope the ref has a spare sheet 🙂

 

[GasX]

You know, the card wipe doesn't happen until AFTER the next game, right? This card fest could seriously hurt both teams later!

 

[Anubis]

the fuck is with the cards in the brazil game?

is it the same ref that did Germanys 2nd game?

 

[Cuda1447]

Yes, this sure as hell is a lot of cards. Brazil/Portugal are playing stupid.

 

[IceBergSLiM]

Yes, this sure as hell is a lot of cards. Brazil/Portugal are playing stupid.

This isn't unique. This has been going on throughout the group stage. Any stats on the # of cards given thus far compared to prior cups?

 

[sdifox]

especially considering they are both through.
