In the words of legendary Liverpool manager, Billy Shankly:
"If a player is not interfering with play or seeking to gain an advantage, then he should be!"
LOL... true talk.
Well ah take in most of the France-Germany game, from just after the second goal... I does try to stay off the ref because I know when ah emotionally invested in a squad ah does start to nitpick...
BUT... France couldn't buy ah break with this ref. The red was justified (if yuh think the shoulder to shoulder challenge by the German on the French LB to win the ball was fair)... but the two yellows on Denand and Georges... horrible. In both instances they won ball clean. Julie Foudy, that horse-teeth Jackass... even had the nerve to bawl Georges coulda break the German leg. I dunno why I does even bother with ESPN. After the penalty both she and Ian Darke bawl "game over"... only to see France pull another back right after that. Delie get ah sweet thru ball from Thinney and fall down as she take the shot... should have been a goal.
