World Soccer XV: Diver Down

Re: World Soccer XV: Diver Down

My favorite part was Brazil diving all game long, committing dirty fouls all game long, only to see their best player sent off...because the other guy dove.

I love it.

Cannot wait for Wednesday. I just want to see the next stages start!

As I understand it, you get 2 yellow cards in the groups, you miss the next match (either the 3rd group stage match or the Round of 16 one). After the groups, the cards are wiped clean. If you get get 2 yellows between the Round of 16 and the quarters, then you miss the semis. They've changed it this year so that yellows in the semis can't force you to miss the final.

This was how it used to be, but now they're wiping it after the quarters instead of the group stage this time to keep players from missing the finals unless they get a red in the semis.

Right, I thought it was a double wipe though so to speak. Once after the groups, then again after the quarters.

I"m sure it was posted earlier in the other thread, but I was out of town this weekend, and I don't feel like trying to catch up. So here it is:

<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/SCGHeEEB1Nk&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/SCGHeEEB1Nk&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

Continue your rage.

Re: World Soccer XV: Diver Down

I can only imagine what Anelka said that got him booted from the team. I'm picturing it ending with him telling his coach to go away before he taunts him a second time.
 
Re: World Soccer XV: Diver Down

I'm going to admit to being a relative newb in soccer, but I do get into the World Cup more than anything.

What facinates me is that France, England, Germany, Spain, and Italy have struffled. South America is looking good with Uraguay, Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Chile so far looking like they could make it. What has happened to the European powers?

Also dissapointed that Africa might not get a team into the knockout round. Ghana REALLY needed that win over Austraila. Now they may need the Aussies to take down Serbia. Nigeria needs to win and hope Argentina beats Greece to have a shot.
