Might get his red rescinded, never know but it was blatant cheating. Fabiano's first goal, what a rocket, and great technique

 

Hopefully but is it not much harder to rescind a second yellow? Straight red would be no issue but usually you can't appeal 2 yellows unless FIFA give it a special excemption?

The presenters were just talking about that, I can't remember what they said was the time for a 2nd yellow to get rescinded but it certainly wasn't one of these situations. Either they change the rules or the best Brazil can hope for is for Tom Hanks to get suspended.

They said it's only for mistaken identity?

 

If they change the rules now so that after game decisions can be made, it should stop a lot of the diving that occurs. Right now all the teams are planning for one player to walk into the other teams best player and they'll all stick up for each other and say he was elbowed in the face!

The sad side of football, the Italians weren't much better either and some of their players really are a disgrace to the so called beautifull game.

 

I also see the English players are now telling the manager who they want to play and how to play, what a farce and the French are doing something very similar.

That tackle on Elano was quite nasty.

 

Yeah the studs were right in, looked rather painful, jarred his leg straight back so he certainly wasn't faking the injury.

 

Good thing he put those shin pads back on eh :)

 

And yet nobody mentioned the Greek incident

 

Greece who? :D

 

Kakas red card was a joke, yet more cheating :(

 

What goes around comes around... :shrug:

I take it it won't be written off in time for the next match? Anyone watching that has to take the card away.

 

Maybe they should accept it to prevent a potential suspension in next round or do FIFA "wipe the slate clean" after the group matches. I reckon they'll wait to see if Portugal vs N Korea finishes in a draw meaning they've won the group then and their next game is a dead rubber for them.
