Agree. They need to put robots instead of refs or something. The ref factor is just way too random and totally unfair. I'm still not over how Bosnia lost vs Nigeria... they disallowed a proper goal for Bosnia because of an offside that didn't exist (Dzeko was like one meter behind the other guy), and they didn't call a clear foul on Spahic which resulted in the only goal that Nigeria scored. Way to go, instead of 1-0, it ended 0-1.

Refs are a part of the game, and the point is having humans doing it, even tho you could control all the side lines with sensors etc. If you replace the refs with robots you might as well replace the players with robots, because it's so unfair that some people are physically better than others. Fuck logic, that's what you're doin'.

FIFA may add some technology to remove easy error, but without referee, it will lose interest, referee also part of game.

the problem is, this is a biggest football competition and every staff in here is and all the staff that are here are the best people from all over the world including refs so there is no excuse if a referee made ​​a mistake because of vision, although he can not put aside the humanitarian side, but that in doing some refereeing at this World Cup as a scenario for playoffstage

I know. I'm still raging about the unfair way my national team left the cup. I know you curse the referees and think the same like I did in such situations.

Still, they did add goal line technology to help the referees see if the ball crossed the line. They could do the same for offsides. Not much difference.

Also, I don't think they are able to make a robot that can properly evaluate fouls. No computer can do that.

I find it hard to imagine myself actually "raging" over a referees decision, it's so easy to sit behind the TV screen and see everything, with replays, different camera angles, etc. There's nothing more to that.

These guys are very well paid, they should make way better than they are doing in WC.


My impression is everything is in this way to make some referee help to Brazil looks like something made just for chance

[trand]

it possible because if we see from table Brazil will faced Chile on 8th quarter final and if brazil win brazil faced the winner of kolombia Vs greece it more easy than brazil must faced netherlands in 8th quarter final, but it still speculation so lets see what FIFA can do for this

[KimNam]

well nobody think greece will qualified especially when we see how they played
so sorry for Cote d'Ivoire, so sad to saw drogba expression
and japan lose too, i think they will qualified

Yes, i saw the match between greece and japan and the greeks played awful, but the ref was helping the japans, they were touching floor every minute by theirselves and every time the ref was calling foul. but that last penalty from today was fake.

[azguard]

lot of matches on this WC was awful this time referees were, if they just do there job like that bald Italian referrer this would be good. But lets face it almost all match referees done something to other team this is really terrible.

Hope to see in knock stage some improvements.

[Chrithu]

England yes but Italy play like this for decades, if u have seen theirs league football that is something different but when they play like national team they keep score to minimum look at theirs pass results from Italy 90 till now n u will see.

See I named it, Italy went home too. I am aware that they played like that for decades. It's a pain in the ass to watch and obviously given nowadays offinsive quality it also isn't very effective anymore they went out 2010 this way and this year again. It's time to rethink. Watch the Netherlands: van Ghaal got so much flak for not playing the traditional 4-3-3 systems and now he made them all shut up. So far they are the best team, because he adjusts the tactic to the opposing team and the players he has at hand.

No that was not fake. Sure it wan't a bad foul, but a foul nonetheless. The Ivory Coast player put his leg in the way of Samaras' shooting foot and thus prevented him from hitting the goal. That's a clear penalty. And the defender knew exactly what he had done hence so little protest from him.

I just feel bad for the keeper he almost had that ball.

[Swordsoffreedom]

The one that has me interested is the bite
Without their ace Uruguay probably will not survive the next few games
Although I did like the commentators comment that Uruguay took a Bite out of Italy this world cup literally.

I would love to see USA beat Germany, but it is not all that likely

Well they can't play without a referee. Robots/computers couldn't really judge if it was a foul or not.
I'm talking about big mistakes: red cards, goal that should be goals but get denied., etc.

[hilariousandco]

England game was pretty dull. Wish I'd've watched the Uruguay game now. It's going to be a joke is Suarez doesn't get banned for the rest of the tournament. I'm hoping whatever team gets through gets knocked out by Brazil in the next round though. Really need Brazil Germany Holland and Argentina in the semis for my bet to come good  .

[Parazyd]

Greece is like in Portugal a few years back When they won the tournament with 3-4 goals total.
