World Cup 2014 Brasil

i like adrian chiles, he's natural and kind of an everyday man. it's not his fault the idiot ex footballers can't ad-lib and have the combined charisma of a bag of rocks.

I wasn't here yesterday, but for the second game running refereeing decisions are the main talking point. This World Cup's making the proposed decision challenge system seem like an excellent idea.

so i hate cena and chiles, so what?

More diabolical refereeing.
Two players in two days that have escaped red cards.
Two disallowed goals that should have been given and a penalty non decision.
This is just appalling.

I like Adrian Chiles too. He's a natural enthusiast and he doesn't pretend to have any great expertise.

I wonder how many referees have received bribes before the tournament started? Just a thought....

Are you saying that Adrian Chile ACTUALLY HAS a football brain?

Deserved win for Mexico, best team won. More garbage officiating though.

Those 2 decisions today are worse than the decisions yesterday... the goal for croatia that was disallowed could have been given either way, challenges on gk ARE usually given as a foul, so nothing controversial there, and the Penalty against Fred, yes he went down easily but Lovern had his hands on his shoulders and most strikers WILL go down and appeal, so it is up to ref to make the decision, If the Referee is not strong enough to make the right decision it is not the players fault.

Today's decisions by the linesman with both the disallowed goals were both really poor..
