holly shit Germany just lucked out.

 

[JHoNNy1OoO]

OH BABY!! That was poise under pressure right there! Apply directly to the forehead. 2-1

OMG!!! That one was in!!! Definitely over the line.

 

[sdifox]

England got robbed.

 

[ElFenix]

and fifa misses yet another goal

 

[RapidSnail]

OMFG this is exactly why the WC needs technology...utter nonsense

 

[sdifox]

This is good, England woke up.

 

[Fingolfin269]

wow soccer needs replay. This just makes the sport look like a joke. Get with the times.

 

[sdifox]

That German goalie is a major liability.

 

[JHoNNy1OoO]

England got robbed.

This reminds me of the handball the Germans got away with against the US in 2002. That was god awful. REPLAY FIFA DAMN IT!

 

[RedCOMET]

are you F'ing Kidding me!!!!

This is probably the perfect time to use Instant replay.... or else have an extra judge just watching the goalie area to ensure nothing like this happens again.

Agreed. Clearly a goal that should have tied the game.

 

[sdifox]

FIFA is going to add 2 more officials apparently. I would prefer a challenge system where as a team has 1 challenge and they can use it when they want to go to video.

lol, the photographers could provide the pictures.

 

[sdifox]

Great game so far.

 

[iCyborg]

great first half, totally worth waking up at 10am on a Sunday after going to sleep at ~5am.
but, yeah, it's so sad when refs can do so much damage to one of the teams

 

[Fingolfin269]

Great game so far.

Agreed... Unless the final score is 2-1. Awful just awful.

 

[sdifox]

Agreed... Unless the final score is 2-1. Awful just awful.

think of it as a payback 44 year in the making

Other than the last 10 minutes, Germany has been taking England apart.

 

[OVerLoRDI]

England did get robbed. Top down camera view shows that was by definition a goal.

Watching the game in Germany, the whole town is shutdown.

 

[RedCOMET]

Well, just so you guys now. I'm sure that linesman / ref team will have a lot of pissed off fans following their movements. I mean non US people take their soccer very seriously. and well the refs in this game are going to be very unpopular...

That German goalie is weak...

 

[sdifox]

My brother just called me to make sure I am home this afternoon so we can watch the Argentina - Mexico game on my 100" setup
