how bent is this world cup

[vanhoop]

Brazil arnt the Brazil of old.that's now 2 offside goals they've been given.fifa are doing their best to make sure their choice wins it..the refs are prancing about like Rolf Harris on Charlie, spraying little lines around the ball.if the Dutch,Germans,or French don't win it there's something very wrong.although we all know that already.

The opening match was highly dubious.

Don't forget the dodgy (i.e. blatantly wrong) penalty van.

FIFA always want the host nation to go as far as possible because it means more interest and therefore more money in their pockets.

Indeed. Could you imagine the increased protests there if Brazil went out early?

Brazil IMO will not go onto win it. Apart from moments of magic from Neymar they have looked quite average against some not so great sides in their group. I expect Chile to beat them in the first KO game.

I hope so, because the poor decisons in Brazil's favour are on par with those for S Korea in 2002.

Nowhere near as bent as the 2002 WC, thats for sure.

South Korea getting to the Semi's was an absolute joke. The games against Italy and Spain should be struck from the record books. Properly, properly bent.

The Brazil v Croatia game was nothing more than a coward of a referee IMO. Those decisions happen week in week out in the Premier League.
