Why FIFA should kick cheating Capdevila out of the World Cup (8 Viewers)

Uruguay deserve to be where they are, I know Ghana fans may disagree but even during that match Uruguay played the better football. They play solid football and I really hope they do win it but if not then then it has to be ze germans for their brilliant counter attacking football (not saying the least kicking two favourites out in a thumping manner). Dutch had an easy group alongside meeting slovakia, Spain got lucky, these two IMO dont dont deserve a final, but then my Opinion wont mean shit on Tuesday.
Exactly, and saying they don't deserve it is just pussy. They might not be flashy, but they did fairly beat all the team they played. According to the rules they did beat Ghana fairly too, and that's what matters. There was no cheating. However, I do think FIFA should follow the example of other sport like Basket-Ball and Rugby concerning goal violations.
Anyway, it's a pity that a lot of people don't like underdogs, and don't like it when they do good.

I'm not blaming them at all. Of the four teams that are still in the World Cup, I want them to win. But it does show you that it has been a poor World Cup. Forlan's free kick against Ghana was odd to say the least by the way and only a miracle got them to the semis. What I'm saying is that Greece as European champions sucked. It sucked because everyone could beat them.
I disagree because I think they were a great team. By far the best that year. They also demonstrated this in friendlies before the World Cup in which they absolutely demolished other great national teams.
But if you think they were like Uruguay this time around, I could understand why you felt they were poor World Champions.

They were poor in the final, but they were the best team. They were also better than France, who were gifted a penalty early on. The Italians actually scored themselves. As for the other incidents.. a 10 man France? For what? 4 minutes? Hardly the biggest influence ever on a football game. And the guy fucking headbutted a player. Get over it. He should never have done it.
But Italy were probably the best team at that time. And even if they weren't they were in the top three. Uruguay on the other hand really don't come close TBH. They're also in the semis after a miracle against Ghana and an easy second round game against Japan.
