fucking beautiful! that last goal ruled.
the red card was the one digakoi (sp?) should have received for fucking up fucile-- he already had a yellow and was clamoring for a red. but no, it was a penalty, and it was a red card cuz of the danger of the play, it was a goal without the foul, and if you watched the replays the goalkeeper's feet were nowhere near the ball and he tripped suarez. yes it was the tip of the foot but when you're airborne it will send you face-forward. player of the game, for me: ![]() parreira must be cutting off his testicles as we speak. his team barely tried attacking-- he removed pienaar? why the fuck? anyway, this was AWESOME, to see uruguay play the way they should, suarez coming in from all sides, forlan's artillery, and the midfield creating offensive situations. the only one who fucked up was cavani-- he missed like 3 good opportunities and i wish fernandez had come in earlier. |

In a way, but the referee went by the book. Personally I think they should change that rule which awards a penalty and a red card but until they do, both sides know the rules. It is harsh, though. Anyway, great game. Forlan's on fire. S'th Africa were simply outclassed tonight. Uruguay look like they might be the dark horses people've been looking for. |

big surprise to see Africa get robbed with that bullshit redcard, africa has been getting robbed for four hundred years, what is another year
![]() that shit absolutely broke their momentum, they were on the verge of being able to tie it up at least, but then that shit ran the clock and broke SA spirits SA was playing shitty all first half, but so were the Swiss and they surprised me and came up with a win, so I was hoping SA could do the same.. Striking South African World Cup guards wage war Page last updated at 19:38 GMT, Wednesday, 16 June 2010 20:38 UK By Pumza Fihlani BBC News, Johannesburg ![]() Thousands of guards tasked with ensuring safety at the stadiums have gone on strike in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town - hours before the kick-off of World Cup matches - citing a wage dispute. The country's police have been forced to take over security duties at four stadiums. In one of the latest incidents, 1,000 officers from around Gauteng Province had to be diverted to Ellis Park stadium in Johannesburg to manage the 55,000 football fans set to attend the game hours before Brazil took on North Korea. The guards told the BBC that they often worked 15-hour shifts and were "angry" and accused security company Stallion, their employer, of "exploitation". We are being exploited because we are poor, uneducated and don't know betterStriking security steward "We are very angry. How can they expect us to survive on the money they want to pay us?" one steward, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said. "We are being exploited because we are poor, uneducated and don't know better," she added. After just finishing a long shift, she had joined other guards in a protest outside Ellis Park - some chanting for their unpaid wages. "I am tired that last thing I need is to be sitting here. But what choice do I have? These people are robbing us we have to fight them," she said. 'Fifa mafia!' The guards say they were promised 1,500 rand ($194; £133) per shift when they signed with the company last month. Instead they say they are receiving as little as 190 rand ($24; £17). ![]() "We enjoy what we do," another guard at Ellis Park says. "I have been unemployed for years and working as a security guard for the World Cup, it makes me feel like I am helping my country. "But I deserve to be rewarded for my work, and rewarded well," she says. Her views reflect a growing frustration at World Cup venues. At a march in Durban, some 3,000 campaigners vented their anger on Wednesday at the lavishing spending on the World Cup, AFP news agency reports. "Get out Fifa mafia!" crowds chanted, their ranks swelled by stewards involved in clashes with riot police on Sunday. ![]() The head of the local organising committee, Danny Jordan, said that he recognises the right of workers to strike, but that match day disruptions were unacceptable. The Congress of South African Trade Unions, a partner in an alliance with the ruling African National Congress, said the workers' wage shortfall was an example of "greed". South Africa's Transport and Allied Workers' Union - the largest union representing the security guards - says it has asked labour authorities to investigate. High alert The union says it seems many workers were employed without written contracts. "Most have been employed on a temporary basis under conditions which do not comply with the minimum conditions," the union said in a statement. The police are on high alert - and anxious to show they can handle the disruption. "Our priority is the safety of the tournament and the country as a whole. We will perform our responsibilities with diligence," Police Commissioner General Bheki Cele said. He spoke as it was announced on Wednesday that his force would continue stadium security duties in Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town. His words will give little assurance to the strikers, who serve as a reminder that the millions of dollars generated by the World Cup are unlikely to improve the lives of millions living below the breadline.

well in the replay i think they said it was suarez who was almost certainly offside depending on whether or not someone else had touched it, which they couldn't tell from the replay. they just need to have somebody watching shit other than the referees who can't really see what's going on well half the time, if they did that you wouldn't have croats with australian accents getting 3 yellows in a game lol |

Absolutely. Even taking the quality of opposition into account, that was a class performance. Forlan and Suarez look like a great partnership. Uruguay haven't really been tested at the back yet but, from what I can see, no teams look like they've got rock-solid defences. |

oh. i get the "latino" channel-- we overlook those things ha ha ha. though video would have gotten dikgacoi expelled. i'm looking for a video to watch for the offside but nothing is up yet. maybe i should get a fucking tivo, or unearth the old vhs deck i fear if control went to video judging we'd end up with something like american football where you need a team of lawyers to call each play though. |

well digakoi(or whatever) isn't important because they were never going to win the game, the thing they'll be most pissed about is losing the keep http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efIb1GYJP8U i think it comes down to whether the guy got it with his knee, which it looks to me like he did but i don't know why the sportscasters would flip shit about it if it wasn't questionable |

i can't find any networks questioning it so maybe it's the cbc announcers being nuts..

German TV mentioned it too... they had the replay from a different angle i think, but could not tell if Cavani (n°7) touches the ball or not... In the youtube video you linked, at normal speed, it looks like he did... |

It's South Africa, not Africa. About the video, I think it's being used by now. I've noticed that the main referee has a microphone and headphones. I don't think it's to communicate with his girlfriend. |
