I feel the same with NFL players...they should try Rugby...we wear only a mouth guard and sometimes a hear guard.
And Baseball league players should try "Rounders"....far more brutal :p |

you just told me it makes sense to end in a tie. inconsistent logic. if you have to change the fundemental rules of how a game ends then something is wrong. look at any other sport. |
The two games I have enjoyed the most so far have been draws.
Sweden - Trinidad & Tobago
USA - Italy |

its because of how the point system works in soccer, in regular season you get one point for a tie, three for a win. because who gets to play in the semifinals/finals has to do with how many points you have ending in a draw makes sense because even if there is a draw points are awarded. because a final or semifinal is not dependent on the points system but on who wins it follows that there has to be a winner. so its not inconsistent logic he just did not give you the context for this logic. |

what are you talking about both were awful games. i have friends from T&T so i was happy to see them tie. But both teams played awful. It wasn't that T&T deserved a tie it was Swedens offense was so inept.
USA/Italy was ok but the refs ruined that game with their card happy antics. |

Some of the US interventions were terrible and those cards were correct. |
