I watched the final on Sunday b/w The Netherlands and Spain, with Spain leaving victorious. However, it took way, way , way too long for any result to come from the game. I'm glad that Spain won. Enough said. But overall, the World Cup is a long boring display of pansies, rolling around on the grd clutching their faces in agonying, whilst looking at the ref. for a penalty. Oh how painful it was to watch. Esp. when the replay shows that there was no touches at all, let alone a broken bone. And i'd have to say that the Dutch and the Italians were/are the worst at it. Its really is farcical the amount of 'hollywood' acting that goes on in a game. And also, there should be NO WAY that a mere player(s) should be able to crowd and try to intimidate a ref, let alone shout/hurl abuse and touch a ref. In rugby, that's a red card probably a fine and more than likely a suspension. Thats needs to change alone with a camera on the goal line, please!!!!
But i will have to say that some of the goals, when there was a goal, were brilliant to watch, theres just not enough of them.
