Well, I guess most of us are following only the acclaimed teams. Just curious though, which sport has more fan following in Australia among Cricket and Football? Abhishek

In a 50-50 run for a ball which Henry was beginning to lose (the spanish player was slightly faster then he was) he jumps to the group grabbing his face pretending to have been hit - ref gives the spanish guy a yellow card for nothing and france get a free kick that they score a goal from - Henry cheated. Plain and simple. The more I watch this world cup the more I am getting sickened by the cheating that is going on in soccer. Players jumping to the group and rolling around in "agony" in order to get a free or the other player booked/sent off. It's disgusting to watch and FIFA should be retrospectively giving those players red or yellow cards. And just so you know - I was completely neutral for the game. I'm supporting Germany in this world cup as Ireland aren't there and my other half is German. Regards, Brian Dela :-) Blog^ Co-author of The Outlook Answer Book... Go on, order^ it today!

I'm Henry's biggest fan but I'm very disappointed in the over-the-top response to the foul. It was a foul, but he made a meal of it. I'm a little disappointed France won, as I'd have like Henry back home so that he can be well rested for the forthcoming season. Ah well , at least Fabregas and Reyes get a longer break.

I didn't think it was a foul. Was a 50-50 ball that the spanish player was going to win. There is no rule in soccer that I am aware of that would have given that as a foul if Henry hadn't acted the way he did. The commentators here on Irish and British tv were sickened by how he acted and not one of them said it was a free (even though Henry is very popular over here).

Did France already qualify for the next European Mastership??? Austria did!!! (Because it's played in Austria and Swizzerland - but that's only a detail:rolleyes:)

That's going to begin _after_ the worldcup. Of course, Austria can already prepare for the EM. ~RaGE();

You won because Henry cheated. He is a wonderful player blessed with immense talent and a pretty nice bloke (by all accounts) to boot and this rash act is most unlike him. Shame. Still, Zidane's goal was well taken and nice to see the old boy can still play! Pity this is far as you'll go: can't see anyone beating Brazil (even my beloved England). home

:sigh:. Yes, and I was disappointed for Puyol, because he did not deserve that. Anyway, France did play well on the tactical side. I am not sure about how to take Brazil. They did not play well, but won everything. Ronaldinho said that until 1/4 finals, the worldcup will not start for Brazil, for the moment it is just having fun on the field. And that's how it looks like actually, they are just playing around like children (if you have children and they play football in a team, you must know what I mean), scoring the minimum and waiting for the end of the game. I think that as long as Juninho and Robinho do not play, we (France) have a chance against them, unless they really come down from their cloud and start to play. ~RaGE();

I followed neither. But I know that a few days ago we won something. So I'm curious what we are doing today! Well while cricket enjoy more support, the footbal cup is all the rage right now!

he took a dive, pretended that he had been elbowed in the face, and the ref gave the penalty....disgraceful.

I mentioned to Mr Chen (:rolleyes: ) that the refs should send the "injured" player off the field for 5 minutes for "medical treatment". If they then complained that they didn't need medical treatment, they should get sent off for acting :)
