I wouldn't bother watching, but yesterday I hooked up my new 40 inch HD LCD TV that I won in a competition (had previously been watching on an 11 year old 28 inch screen), my first football match in HD.
Brazil v Netherlands Third Place Play Off ITV 9.00 PM

In this case it was not a dive and a clear foul though
This Brazilian squad are going to fall apart when they no longer have the World Cup protection squad helping them out.
Has to be a red card.
Robben still could have taken it on though, rather that fall like a dying angel.

You can't argue with the way he was pulled back, that was a clear foul regardless of who it was on.
Hollands going for the golden boot I guess, I am surprised, really did not think they would bother, but that was a full out run by Robben.
Maybe they are going to try to prove they are better than Germany by scoring more ?

We should setup a friendly with them.
They are one South American team that we might be able to beat

Quite simply, he cannot have one.
Should never ref again
So looking back,, it wasnt a penalty, which he gave, and it should have been a red card, which he didnt give, yhe ref has had a nighmare

Itv don't recognise that holland is a part of the country that is the Netherlands.
Borderline racism

Oh no I agree it was a foul but the way Robben went down was like someone had shot him
Don't know why people think the ref would give a red card for something like a tug this early in the game, especially against Brazil. Refs are working to new Fifa rules this tournament.
