Non c'è problema. :)
My best friend was watching the game in Alghero (she's at a judo tournament for a while) at the beach with some Italians and I think she was sad, too. My little sister was cursing around and send me a SMS like: 'damn, those Coreans always with their luck' (don't take her too serious she's young :D ).

And the referee? What was that? Tomatoes on his eyes and his whistle swallowed? I think the only good referee is Collina, I saw a lot of games directed by him and he was always good. Unfortunaly for that case now - he's Italian.

Whatever, I read today's Raiuno Televideo news to get some more infomation.

Two years ago I was in sunny Toscana living in a big villa near the beach. We were watching the final game France - Italy and had all ready for party: food, icecream, drinks.... but then we went sadly to bed :(
So I'm really make used to suffer :)
 
Cosa vuoi che ti dica?
Potremmo stare a parlare della partita per giorni interi.
Oramai è finita.
E' stato quel che è stato.
Meglio uscire ora piuttosto che in semi finale o in finale.
Spero solo che questo episodio serva per fare in modo che ai prossimi europei nel 2004 questo non si ripeta.
Sei stata in Toscana???
Io diverse volte, è vicina alla città dove vivo...
ciao.

yeah, Collina is the best Italian in the complete WC :D nah, seriously.. I would also say that he is one of the very best referees in the world! no question about that!!


that has always been a problem of the WC's... every country that takes part sends its best referee to the WC. what a bullshit! how can the best referee from Morocco (for example) comete with ANY referee from one of the European top leagus? that's just ridiculous...

really sick behaviour of the club and its president (he said: someone who kicks Italy out, has no place in this club), but I think the Korean will soon find another club, for being in the spotlight now.

lol,great that you guys take the trouble to read the previous page:)

cheers!


about the referees: I really think it's a bad thing that the FIFA gives every country that has a football federation give a position as referee. Some really haven't got enough experience to make the right decisions all the time. I mean, Some come from places I never knew they existed:)
More referees from the real big football countries like the European, maybe South American would be better for the football itself.

Dear Metalheads !

here I´m again,
I need the last two weeks to recover from the very soon elimination of my national team, Argentina. I didn´t even start my computer! I only walked throug the forest and thought about the reason for this elimination. I can´t believe it!
But this is the past.
The WC is still running and I think the most of us are really surprised with the results. But I´ve to say, that I´ve lost the interest for this tournament. For several reasons:

- The quality of the matches is the worst one I´ve ever seen! All the teams which played an offensive footbal (Argentina, France, etc...) are out!
- The referees are the worst f*ck*ng assholes! Just to mention a few games where this happen: (Brazil-Turkey! All the Italy games, the Italians were robbed! Brazil-Belgium)
I think, that a Brazilian team don´t need the help of a referee to win a match.

All of you should think, I´m saying this because Argentina went home very soon. OK, I admit it. But all of you have to admit too, that this WC is very bad.
Now, I hope to see South Korea against Senegal on the final match.
(Perdón Sodomy&Lust por no haber puesto a España en la final !)

I think the Idea of meeting at Wacken all together is a great one! Just let us meet and talk together, have a good beers (sorry but I don´t drink any alcoholic drinks) and listen to a good heavy metal song!

Bye

I read about this in the English press. There was a report about how little the Spanish care about their national team in the World Cup. Do you agree that there is less popularity for the WC in Spain, than in lets say, England or Germany? If yes, is it because of Spaniards perhaps caring more about regional identities (Cataonain, Basque etc) than being Spanish?
In England, ALL of the World Cup is on terrestrial (free) TV

No, no, no!! Well, I'm not fully interested about football, but the Spaniards, in general, love football, and in the sport section of the newspaper you can only read things of this WC, even when there's been a final in Roland Garros with two spaniards, or the final of the National Basketball League. The problem is the state TV. It sucks, and besides that, they don't have money.

About regional identities, a Basque considers him/herself Basque rather than Spanish (that's the common thing, at least), but they also fully support the national team.

Oops.. You'll have to teach me some Basque :D (I'm an untrue basque, as you can see :) )
