Great game so far. 1 - 1 and Italy have just had a guy sent off for smacking McBride in the face with an elbow. Blood flowing everywhere.

Come on USA!!

Sat Jun 17, 2006 12:45 pm

Sat Jun 17, 2006 12:50 pm

Sat Jun 17, 2006 12:51 pm

It's GREAT! More like Ice-Hockey than Soccer!
18-7 to the United States at half-time!

(Fouls that is!)


And, hey Parka... whaddya mean: "Come on USA!" ?

Sat Jun 17, 2006 12:57 pm

I'd rather have yanks win (at a sport they shouldn't be playing :D) than dirty cheating Itai's!

Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:05 pm

Another US player sent off!!

9 players vs 10. This is freaking nuts. :shock: :shock:

It's WWII all over again...!

Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:13 pm

How so? all the sendings off have been spot on.

Nasty, nasty elbow for the first. Lunging tackle with studs showing that could have broke an ankle, and the third was a crap tackle from behind and he didn't win the ball - easy second yellow.

Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:19 pm

Hand on ball! No freaking call!???????????

Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:23 pm

Disallowed goal for the US!!

and who said footie was boring.

Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:25 pm

Italy have a player injured and have used all there subs - its going to be 9 vs 9.

Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:54 pm

Thats a tie !

Sat Jun 17, 2006 1:56 pm

That ref SUCKED both ways!!!

explain how? seriously, all sendings off were correct.

Rather the players who got sent off Sucked both ways.

Sat Jun 17, 2006 2:00 pm

Well his main "suckness" was that he was whipping out the cards inappropriately in a game like this... should let the "boys" play the game. He fucked the game basically for everybody by gimping both teams without real need.

I don't really think any of the send-offs were correct.

But that is just my opinion, and it is a judgment call.

The US commentators, at least, doubted that this ref would see another game.
