Title: What do you all think about all those red cards?
Post by: Antonio_ on June 26, 2006, 11:59:33 AM

I don't have the stats, but i think it's a record? Sooooooo many red cards, man!! Too many, probably.

Yep, dude said it's the most bookings in any previous WC..

I think the officiating the first week was a decent standard, then it's just been a downwards slope.

The refs have been shocking at this WC, the Ukr vs Swiz ref has been OK 2nite.  1st booking was at about 55-65mins

i thought the ref in the hol vs por game got much more stick than he should have.. most of the tackles where terrible...and most of the yellow/reds were completely justified.

did make few mistakes tho...

players wer discraceful!

Referees are horrible when it comes to not call some evident penalties and for calling imaginary offsides, I don't know what FIFA is thinking, football needs video, this WC proves it, more than ever

The refing during a world cup is always different from the refing in the euro leagues or the CL. That's nothing new. I don't see it at as something that bad cause it gives an own air to the world cup.
