Manila's Momentary Lapse of Reason: Who said boring?.

Who said boring?.

Well I was wrong again Germany was far from boring in there game against Sweden. Hosts Germany booked their place in the World Cup quarter-finals as two early goals from Lukas Podolski helped secure victory over 10-man Sweden.
Germany were the better team - but this abysmal refereeing has to stop.



It is ruining the World Cup! Sweden's Teddy Lucic was sent off for a second booking on 35 minutes and their miserable day was complete when Henrik Larsson missed a second-half penalty striking the ball over the crossbar.. The Ref made a blunder Lucic should never have been sent off. whats going on here? And to cap Lucic's misery the Ref was almost laughing at him when he showed him the red card. (if he did that shit agaianst Rooney he would have head butted the Ref as would have I)The world cup refereeing is shite to say the least. Something drastic has to be done before it effects an ENGLAND game (against our favour) I could't imagine what it feels like going out on a stupid ref call (not forgetting Maradona).

Its 230am here now in the Philippines and im looking foward to the biggest shock in this world cup when Mexico knock out the Argies. That is if the Ref dont send everyone off or give em all 3-4 yellow cards each.

Spot On.

The referee's are being very petty and not letting games flow enough, it is actually ruining the games, I haven't seen every game but the Mexico vs Argentina game tonight wasn't bad in terms of being allowed to the flow, shame the referee got it all wrong with Heinze, an easy red that was, I was shocked to see just a yellow.
