It was godlike. :D

Rostock + St. Pauli = lifelong love

didnt know u could wrestle in football xD
why the heck did they shoot so many peneltys ? brutal game or does the really let them reshot until they made the goal ? :)
ok then i can understand them a bit.. i mean ok u shouldnt attack a referee like that but when it looks like he let them reshoot once after a goal and then again and again until they make a goal again , ofc that makes u angry as a player
Parent
the ref probably had his reasons, can't really tell from the vid but most likely players rushing in too soon, gk getting of his line too soon stuff like that, ye you get frustrated as a player but it still is no reason to attack someone
Parent
I think its brave of the ref for following the rules. A lot of refs should let the players overtake a penalty but a lot a them dont have the balls.
Parent
the goalkeeper of his team stopped penalty 2 & 3, number 1 & 4 was goal and only the 4th penalty was correctly according to the referee :o)
Parent
he really mad
Yeah its the right decision
Finland Hukk has spoken
Parent
translate to a language for not so poor people
looks like penalty serie
he should be banned for the rest of his life
He should be banned, wonder how many games this ref will be suspended...probably none...poor performance.
He is lucky he isn't living in USA or he would get like 27 months jail.
xD
That made me lough.
Maybe he would get in jail with Lindsey Lohan
Parent
+1 for some reason we love putting people in jail.
Parent
Because some of you are just twisted.
Parent
Cause American's are morons.
Parent
wtf?

he should get banned for life

but i still dont really get what i saw :s
that header goal was pretty smooth
Football is such a fucking retarded sport. Referees deserve a lot more respect for what they do. That is unacceptable. Iniesta and Xavi should have been sent off in WC final due to harassing the ref numerous times aswell as prompting the referee to book people which FIFA said would be a straight, instant yellow I guess some players are thought to be untouchable. Rugby has the best policy I know off. Football needs it back.
+1 On the Iniesta and Xavi part.
Parent
wait what about de jong, van bommel?! Spain had reason to whine at the ref...
Parent
De Jong(e) did deserve a sending off. That tackle was horrible. Van Bommel? Not so much. Not sure about you but our commentators kept on bringing up the fact that he hadn't been sent off yet even though he made bad tackles all the time. I dislike commentators.

We're not talking about leg breaking tackles all the time here either. We're talking about little diving ones. As for Iniesta, he should have been sent off/booked too for diving and retaliation on the pitch. I see this sort of disrespectful behavior in each and every game. We all forget that these people are 'pros' and most earn €100,000 week, probably double/triple what your parents earn combined.
Parent
I agree they should behave more professional and I agree iniesta shouldn't retalliate BUT I absolutely think Van Bommel deserved a red card, he makes so many fouls that make it impossible for the opponent to play a normal game.. He can ruin a game and not even get cards for it... That's how modern football has evolved. As long as noone gets hurt, you will get away with it..:(

And imo if the ref had whistled well , I doubt the situation would have gotten that far and I doubt Iniesta would have done this(i disapprove of his action btw)... I would get frustrated myself aswell if someone always stops me by making fouls and never gets booked/warned about it...

P.S.: Van Bommel DOES stuff that absolutely doesn't belong on a football pitch ;)

Contact sport, expect it.
