ABOUT MISTAKES OF THE REFREES.
Italy 1-2 Croatia
Referee: Graham Poll
Vieri's header is ruled out
Italy striker Christian Vieri heads the ball past Stipe Pletikosa from short range to open the scoring in the match.
But referee Graham Poll disallows the goal after his assistant flags for offside.
Replays clearly show that Vieri was level with the last defender when the ball was crossed.
How bad? Poor but forgivable.
Italy's dramatic equaliser is disallowed Deep into extra-time, and with his team trailing, Marco Materazzi's hopeful free-kick eludes everyone and nestles in the back of the net.
The referee rules out the goal, penalising Italian striker Filippo Inzaghi for shirt pulling.
How bad? Mystifyingly bizarre
------------------------------------------------
South Korea 2-1 Italy
Referee: Byron Moreno
Totti is sent off for diving
With the match in extra-time, Italian golden boy Francesco Totti goes down in the South Korean penalty box after a challenge from Song Chong-Gug.
His appeals for a penalty are not only turned down but referee Byron Moreno awards Totti a second yellow card for diving, reducing Italy to 10 men.
How bad? Pre-determined and provocative
Tommasi's winner doesn't stand
Damiano Tommasi latches on to a superbly angled through ball and slips the ball home for a golden goal winner.
But the linesman incorrectly flags for off-side.
Italy eventually lose on the golden goal and riots break out back home.
How bad? Just plain wrong.

LMAO! Game over, English fool in this board! LOL.
P.S.
Those are the same sites who labelled Italians ect only crying babies.. LOL. Pathetic, like i predicted.
Other comments about the mistakes:
We go from: "Unfortunate human error" to "Amateurish", "Star-struck by the yellow jerseys", "Awful" (ROFL!) and "Outrageous".
FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLS!

I invite all the moralists of the discussion to think how they would feel if what happened to Italy and Spain happened to their team.
Oh.. and check the comments in that site. Even English guys are saying... lemme quote... "Italy were robbed".
(see Kristen, UK - or other fools).
