i mean cmon, you're insulting the guy, you're facing him, and yea ok, maybe you make him look like the fool for headbutting you...but flip that around a second...what kind of tool lets someone headbut them in the chest, then flops on the floor like he got crushed, just to draw a red in 2nd OT of the WC. It's like I'm gonna provoke you to fuck up so you end up losing and we end up winning...kinda pussy way to win don't you think? |
I also agree with that. Moreover, it seemed to me like many of Italy's victories during this cup were strangely undeserved (I'm principally speaking about the Italy-Australia game). As such, I find it hard to support them in the final, where, yet again, it seemed like an unfair conclusion (for whatever reason).
As far as what Zizack said, I don't play soccer --- but I'm aware that shit like that has always been happening. I participated in the supposedly tame sports of Track & CC --- you'd be suprised what happens on wooded paths in the middle of 5k races. But you really should expect more on a professional level. That aside, I still think that all of the factors that I discussed all contribute to a rather negative trend in the world of futbol. It's not 'doom' that I'm talking about, it's a simple downgrading of standards. Even Beckenbauer claimed that today's soccer is played far more negatively with a great deal more diving and selfish play.
