Austria, very lucky draw on saturday night, England really needs to get rid of that goal keeper, david james ****s big time.

[DoS_GadO]

Nowadays all nations are a potenzial winner...but individual tecnical it's most important...finally...the ball is sferic... ;)

[Sir Nimrod]

Yes, the 2:2 from Austria vs. England was a very lucky one. (Thx Mr. James :) ).

But the 0:1 for England was a present as well...I think it was a fair result :cheers:

You were lucky! Should have been 1-1, or even maybe 2-1!
Ibrahimovic bumped into the goalkeeper AFTER he dropped the ball in the goal :nono:
And there should have been a penalty after the ball hit a Croatian hand in the penalty zone :nono:
Btw your Croatian footballers are excellent actors, even better than the Italians... :nono:

Well...now it doesn't matter now as the only thing that counts is 3 points in the bag and not how you perform...

[Finellach]

I don't think so. You barely had a chance.

Ibrahimovic bumped into the goalkeeper AFTER he dropped the ball in the goal :nono:

The foul was awarded before Ibrahimovic even touched the goalkeeper.

And there should have been a penalty after the ball hit a Croatian hand in the penalty zone :nono:

Where? There was no handplay.

Btw your Croatian footballers are excellent actors, even better than the Italians... :nono:

I would disagree with you. The judge was obviously on your side. You should have got at least 3-4 additional yellow cards and one of your players should have got a red card. Your players are nothing but butchers. Also Ibrahimovic is unbeatable in acting.

Well...now it doesn't matter now as the only thing that counts is 3 points in the bag and not how you perform...

We played better than you. Consider yourself lucky that you got just one.

[Ledhead]

The line ref (who had the best view of the situation!) signaled for a goal in the "dropped ball" situation...the foul was for interfering the goalkeeper :hello: ...and it was a wrong call!

Sweden didn't play well, I'll give you that.
Sweden didn't lose the game because Croatia scored one, Sweden lost for not scoring any own goals...the Swedish attack was impotent.

Zlatan is more of a dirty player, and an excellent actor at trying to look innocent after an incident. The Swedish frustration which transformed into aggresivness cannot be excused!
But the Croatians should have gotten yellow cards for delaying the game and falling like a shot pheasants in a hunt before the wrestling. The Croatian players didn't even try to play football!
