Forum SupporterWell I'm not pissed off with the sending off, as the elbow should not be raised in the first place and Spain unlike one of their their clubs dont keep talking about playing fair and pure and then the moment they are 2 goals behind, they dive in the CL semi final

10 years of FIFI take it Torres' didn't get nicked there before he fell, eh Vito? :rollani:
I suppose that's not saliva coming out of CR's mouth either
I take it you throw your head back and look like you got hit by a sniper every time you get nicked on the pitch, eh?

If we had these ref's against Slovakia, we would have had at least one more match before going home...
By the way, I think Capdevila, took some pointers from Busquets. He clearly is about to get up, but when he sees the referee coming over, he drops back down. These guys dive so much that when they get a whiff of an official, their body begins to ache!

u are delusional and i feel sad that u spend time in other ppls forums stirring shit....
torres looked like he got hit by a semi trailer they way he fell down....
spanish are making a farce out of this game, its hard enough to get rid of the stigma associated with football as it is without this shit happening every game.

10 years of FIFIf you got a ref much less photos that show the pass already being played, then sure, it'd look offside...Shame that's not how the rule is written

FIF Special Ones10 years of FIFAnd falling requires your head to snap back and arms to flail, huh? It funny how you don't see a punch in the Italy game, but Torres fools you completely with that playacting...

10 years of FIFIn the case of Torres, was he clipped?...The answer is pretty clear, the defender (Whether intentionally or not) gets him with his knee - in open play and in an attack, no less...Attempting to compare that to a keeper on his back in the corner of the net with an opposing player standing over him with his arm outstretched to shield him is laughable, Vito.
You're reachin' dude, big time...I get that you're gutted about Italia crashing out but pointing to that?

Notice where the ball is. That was taken AFTER the ball was played. Therefore, inconclusive.
As for Torres, if you get clipped like that going that fast, you have the right to fall. You don't, however, have the right to flail your arms and lay on the ground for a couple minutes.

FIF Special Ones10 years of FIFI think that shot was used on BBC, who are 100% certain it was offsides. It looks like the ball is off the foot of Llorente, but I believe that shot is the second it is coming off his foot...

10 years of FIFWhether the BBC (Who made them the experts, btw?) are 100% certain or not, that photo is not a conclusive piece of evidence of that which was my point.
And I agree with It's on Man, Torres certainly acted like he was shot but to suggest he went down without contact, aka dive, is ludicrous...He was clipped but then again my brain is apparently infected
I fail to see how the hell the directors dare denying the millions of viewers worldwide to show the slow-motion replay with the accurate line to see whether the lone (and decisive) goal was offside or not. We are talking about a knockout game at a World Cup, between two of the best teams around. That fact in itself indicates that my suspicion was correct and it indeed WAS offside.
the directors also didn't show any replay of the red card situation. see my jugdement above.
Maybe fifa feels that we should NOT know whether the games (at the most important global football event in the world) are 'conducted' according to the rules of football or they are conducted under the rules of the 'fifa getting filthy rich game'; while riuining million's entertainment and carreers of footballers' of the highest degree.

When did I ever say there was no contact??? See the problem is, you feel that if there is any bit of contact, then it cannot be considered a dive. Diving or playacting is simply doing something additional that the contact could not remotely cause. If a shoelace strikes a player in the leg, and he jumps 10 feet forward and rolls around, should we not consider it a dive because there was contact???
The nick of course would cause Torres to stumble and fall down, I have no problem with that. By throwing his body an extra 3-4 feet and throwing his head back the way he did, he is diving...
