Re: the dream lives on in south korea

what a match!

They certainly earned the result, but I can't help but feel Spain was robbed by the goal that was disallowed.

Senegal v Turkey up next -- I hope it's even close to as suspenseful as this one was.

Yet another korea match that was fixed.

When they faced italy 3 disalowed goals. 2 in normal time 1 in extra time.

Spain had 2 disalowed.

The final - Brazil v Germany?

I would love to see Senegal v Korea, it would be amusing

 

[District Line]

I feel sorry for the Spanish penalty taker who missed.

He had a good game.

He's only twenty apparently, had a groin injury at the end of the game and he took the penalty. Where were the senior players, the star players ?

Final game will be Korea brasil.

I feel sorry for spain they was robbed as was Italy when they faced korea.

It's the game, it's full of drama, personal tragedies and delight - it is what makes it a great game.

i could,nt agree with you more on that rickdeville
but when the linesman was as inept as was the one today
then it just takes that sparkle out of the game .
Korea have been a good team but i just wonder if the world cup had been played in a different country would some of the
disallowed goals by italy and spain been allowed?

Senegal vs S. Korea would be just fine.

Can you imagine what an average Senelgalise player would earn in their domestic league (if he's not picked to play in France or something).

Also, no offence to anyone, but I would imagine the sports facilities available to them would not be on a par with things in a rich Western country.

Yet Senegal are still there and teams worth teams of millions have been layed waste. Wow.
