Don't say you're trolling if that's how you feel. Don't be a Nou.

I missed the handball, as I was driving at the time. What happened there?

I wouldn't mind if they would do it like in F1.
And yes, not possible in all leagues all over the world, but does it matter that much?

You're talking about a game which originated when victorious soldiers would kick the heads of their opponents down a field, in a free-form competition at the end of battle. While your suggestion of introducing elements of modernity is certainly novel, if you're going to fix something, you should focus your effort on something which makes the game a little less boring than watching paint dry.

I wouldn't put watching paint dry too far behind some of the matches of late. This one had some good moments though.

Well, there's always a little bit of truth in every bit of sarcasm, isn't there? ;)

Two handballs in the action before the goal, bit like street football. All went pretty fast, difficult to see. Personally I don't see a problem. This can happen if you try to control the ball with your chest. Upper arm also isn't "hand" actually....arm ball fits better :)

Kaka got screwed, but I think it's not a huge problem for Brazil. They don't need him the next match, so he'll be back next round.
This is exactly what I said. They already are #1 in the group, but what a bull card.

Discussion on Dutch television about video use:
With FIFA and UEFA can't manupilate matches any more.
After US game it crosses ones mind, it even could be true...

Oh snap, that was def a handball.
But I'm still pissed off I lost 3 points for Kaka's red :o

I love it how Brazil fans are complaining about the referee now, but kept their mouths shut when he allowed Luis Fabiano's goal after TWO handballs.
+1 and KAKA deserved both of them. Look the replay on the first one - he started trouble off the ball (slapped the hands of the CIV player) while standing right next to the ref.
He's a facetious little with serious ego issues which is why refs won't hesitate to card him after thy get a gobful of his back talk when challenged.
Moments of great football from brasil but I would be embaressed with that performace at the end.
