Actually, her peers in the Spanish media have rushed to her defense. She's apparently a very professional individual and a good journalist. Although her situation is a microcosm of what is is like to be an attractive woman in a professional environment. Some people will always assume you got there courtesy of your looks and not your talent or abilities.

I don't like the way Holland and Brazil are playing. Far too calculated, negating everything their style of play used to stand for. They've basically driven me into the arms of Germany for the remainder of the tournament! :|

I was not saying that the calls weren't obviously wrong. I simply believe that the winner would have been the same regardless of the decision there. England dominated for 15 minutes. Germany for the remaining 75. And as I said before, those counter-attacking goals were not a result of England forcing too many men forward but them failing to set up properly for two standard situations. That kind of negligence can lead to a counter-attacking goal just as easily at 2-2 as it did at 2-1.

I never understood this obsession in some circles to try and convince the Americans of the merits of the game. If they don't like it, then fine. It's already by far the most popular game in the world, does it really need North-America to embrace it as well?

It's not unusual for a team to have that many players in the box for a set play. It is unusual for them to have no cover behind the free kick taker.

Those easy counter attacks were caused by England's failure to set up properly for a free kick and throw-in respectively. The score-line had little effect on either.

There's room for a filling in between that Jessica-Irina sandwich! I volunteer! :drool:

I don't understand all the complaints about the disallowed goal. I could understand it if the game had ended 2-1, but Germany scored twice more and had lots of chances before and after Lampard's goal was disallowed.

And neither of them will be missed.

Why not? Ghana and Uruguay (likely) aren't exactly insurmountable challenges. I like their chances more than England's, who will have to overcome Germany and Argentina to make it that far.

I hope mr. Evra along with Anelka, Henry, Abidal and Gallas enjoy their international retirement. Unlike Domenech, Laurent Blanc has a backbone and very little patience for drama-queens.

and considering the North Korean team of '66 had this fate after loosing to Portugal ( ) in quarterfinals (!) back in the day, I don't see why they would be treated differently this time. If you are referring to the rumors of the 66 team being executed upon their return to Korea, a BBC documentary disproved that story several years ago!

Ref likely won't be seen again for the remainder of the tournament.

Alien is an absolute classic and well worth the watch. Aliens too, though on a different level. The rest of the sequels are dreck.
