I know so many people that just laugh at the game because of the acting involved

But don't feel bad, man. We broke so many records this Cup. That alone would be plenty to most teams in the World to be happy. If we have won this one again, people would kill our players right there! We can't win them all, we have to give chance to other Countrys too! lol We Brasilians are too greedy when it comes to Soccer, we want to win them all!
And think like this: After this Cup, there WON'T be another team with 5 stars in their chest! And will be good now with most of our "old" players quitting to the next Cup. Some of these players shouldn't be here in the first place! They already won too much. Their "fire" it's already low, they don't have too much motivation anymore, since they already won everything a player can win, everything. What we needed in this Cup, was more young players playing full time!! Cause these young players REALLY want to win and show what they are capable of!! But they will be there in Africa 2010, and you can be SURE, they won't disapoint, atleast they will show HEART when they are playing, even if they loose!! Are you watching Brasilian soccer league? Man, there's SO many new BIG talents apearing!!

Speaking of the game, did you see where Roberto Carlos was at the momment Henry scored?? He was fixing his damn socks, when we was suposed to look after Henry!!!!! How freaking dumb is that?? That alone explains why we didn't deserve to win this time and this Cup. We were WAAAY too confident, and thought that we could finish the game anytime we wanted, and that didn't happen. Our team understimated the French(that played BEAUTIFULLY, btw, like soccer SHOULD be played! Something we always showed and believed. Yet we couldn't show it in this Cup, isn't it ironic??), and we paid for it. Did you see Ronaldo and Ronaldinho's interview after the game? They were laughing!! Like nothing happened!! Unfreakingbelivable...
Ronaldinho was to me, the BIGGEST disapointment of this Cup. The best player in the World, the big promisse!! and he didn't show/do SQUAT! If he only played 10% of what he plays in Barcelona...

Oh well, we win some, we loose some. And we have enough already. Soccer is a passion I have since I was a kid, and I will sit back now and enjoy the rest of this Cup, really wishing that the best team wins. I have to agree with other people, though, that this Cup was very weak "technically" speaking. Let's hope these final games brings us more action and quality.

That's my big disapointment, Justin, cause we all know what he is capable of doing. This would be his Cup, and he blew it.

He was also well known for it in the World Cups he played in for Germany. Just making the point that diving is part and parcel of the game on the continent and in South America. We, the home nations (Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales) are too honest for our own good. We should have coaches teaching our young players the art of diving.

I think that´s going to leave a mark on you for the rest of your life! Come on, get over it, we got a nonexistent red card also and played one man down almost the entire second time.

Plus, like Bulls said once:

Yes, that sentence the games to a high nervous level and you won´t see a nice match at that point.
What about Korea getting the semis? Come on!!!
I´m not saying this is the best World Cup I´ve ever seen, it´s far from being that, but IMO it´s better than the last one.

Mate he is a magician, he can do anything on the pitch but he was a non event for some reason, was he carrying an injury or anything like that?
