It's not as if Brazil were just told about the confederations cup, everyone knows it takes place a year before the world cup and other host countries are better prepared. So it's not FIFA's fault if they don't have their shit together, they have been given the hosting rights many years ago, to get ready for 2013 - a warm-up tournament before the main event.

Alright mate, you know fuck all of what you are talking about so better shut up before posting shit! ;)

de Rossi played well too.

Very interesting match in the first half.

I just don't get why the referee didn't call that penalty on Pirlo, but called that one for Mexico...

Pirlo's was more of a penalty imo than Mexico's...

I hate when officiating messes up.

He should have called both or none. Calling one and not calling the other was very biased if you ask me

Gr8 half of football. Technically Bazargali was red since Dos Santos was through on goal.

Also I love this ESPN USA Commentator. I have never seen English Commentary with a commentator shouting "GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLL"

Also fucking bastard Mark Lawrenson is calling David Luiz a liability for Brazil. :doh: :doh:

It wasn't a penalty. BBC showed another angle of it and we can clearly see that the Mexican guy gets the ball first.

Regarding this previous post I made.

Mark Lawrenson should think that if David Luiz is a liability then wouldn't Scolari play Dante instead? He seriously has no brains. I honestly hate this guy. On top of that he is the most biased pundit I have seen. Some of the pro-United statements he makes r just ridiculous!

Chicharito is such a fucking cunt, isn't he?

Every time I see his face I want to punch it.

It's probably becasue he dives a lot and celebrates tap-ins and headers from 1 yard out like he's just scored a worldy. Hate him.

Or cos he plays for Man United and is an offside goal specialist.

Sorry, lost my cool for a minute, but I get furious when people come with those naive arguments...

The problem is that the World Cup only went to Brazil so FIFA and The Brazilian Government could steal as much as they could. The idea is to overprice the constructions so they can get a portion of the budget to their own bank accounts. Confederations Cup only comes to help them get even more money and have the 2013 deadline as an excuse for the high prices. It has nothing to do with promoting a tournament with the winners of each continent and there is nothing to do Brazil knowing it from the beginning.

I will ask you something, why is FIFA choosing host countries with no infra-structure nor stadiums? Why they choose South Africa, Brazil and Russia instead of Spain or England? Because they cant steal if everything is already built and ready to go. The idea behind the Confederations Cup is only to facilitate all that absurd corruption there is in international football tournaments. So it fucks with the players, clubs and people from the host nation. How can you still defend it?

However, its not okay to spend billions of dollars on stadiums and stupid demands FIFA makes when you dont have qualified public services (schools, hospitals, jails, etc). The protests are more than right, one shouldnt allow to see their child with no proper school or hospital to go to, but allow the government to spent billions with stupid football stuff. Yes, it is fun and all of that, but priorities are priorities and just because Brazilians are fighting for our rights, we are gettifng spanked by the police so Americans and Europeans dont read anything on NYT or Reutuers!

In resume, the very basic concept of Confederations Cup might even be good, but in pratic, it is as dirty and unhuman as it gets...

They're trying to spread the hosting to as many countries as possible?

I get your point though, and i just read about the protests and problems in Brazil today, so away from the football aspect - which is all i was defending - you are right.
