WatfordFC: Yes, I know what you meant...I think most of them go to ebay.com - there are still some tickets to purchase - the price of one of them goes up to 2.500 euros though...

Subject: Re:

Pedro Martínez: What i meant was, the Italy and France fans didnt know they were gonna get to the final, sooooooo with the final so close, how and where would they get there tickets from.

6. July 2006, 22:35:23

Subject: Re:

WatfordFC: I got my ticket (not for the final, of course, but the ITA-CZE game) on ebay...I guess most people who want tickets buy them there as there are lots of Germans who bought tickets in the first wave and now they're selling them. It's almost impossible to get a ticket right in front of the arenas, I saw numbers and numbers of peeps holding a sign "I need a ticket" but nobody with a "Ticket for sale" one.

Subject: Re:Oh, and how about the other one over Cristiano Ronaldo, a few minutes later? Wasn't penalty?

Gabriel Almeida: That was noway a penalty on the diving master

6. July 2006, 14:36:27

It was penalty because there was contact between Carvalho and Henry...

6. July 2006, 14:11:27

Subject: Re:

Ferjo: You must be a very good psychologist, being able to know what someone is thinking while all you can see is the expression on his face. By the way, I haven't read any newspaper articles about that match. Is someone thinking the penalty was wrongfully whistled?

Subject: Re:

Pedro Martínez:
Well was evident that there was contact between the french defender and Ronaldo too. You want to go in that direction? I don't deny that Ricardo touch Henry, but He didn't fall because of that, he fell because he trip on the grass. And if you pay attention to your electronic zooming you can see that Henry was worried about the whistle because he thought he was getting a yellow card for tricking the referee, and bye bye final. Instead he won a penalty and the final to the World Cup.

Nevertheless I want to say that it was a very good match, and it wasn't for the referee that Portugal lost. Congrats to France and I wish they beat the Italians, because any team with Gatuso in it deserves to lose.

Andre & Gabriel : First of all, it's NOT true that I don't like your national team. Actually if there wasn't for the game against the Dutch, I'd have wished Portugal won the Cup.

I saw a very detailed zoom-in electronic-pen analysis of the situation where it was evident that there was a contact between Carvalho's calf and Henry's foot. As a result of this contact, Henry lost speed and it was clear to him that he couldn't reach the ball. Seeing this, he fell. I don't deny Henry knew what he was doing when he was falling down, but the contact there. I'm sure that if Carvalho didn't hit him, he'd score since he'd be face-to-face with Ricardo.

As far as the situation with Ronaldo mentioned by Gabriel is concerned, I don't understand how can anyone, who watched the game and the respective replays, claim it was a foul. There was no contact whatsoever and Ronaldo should better compete at Summer Olympic Games, not in soccer though, but in water-diving.

Gabriel Almeida: So I mean Portugal is not stronger than France, but... played as well (or even better) than France, yesterday, so... if Portugal had won the game, it would be no surprise...

6. July 2006, 11:43:51

Subject: Re:

Marfitalu: Yes, I agree with that (all sentences) you said!

6. July 2006, 11:36:56

Subject: Re:

Marfitalu: I don't think there are some cheats (in soccer... in BK is different... eheheh). But the referee sometimes fail. And I believe we were not lucky, because he failed more against us! Anyway, referees uses to fail more against small teams, and protect big teams. But I don't think it was some king of cheat.

And of course, we keep on supporting our team! Even if they loose against Germany (but I think Portugal will win), Portugal had been great this world cup!

6. July 2006, 11:31:36

Marfitalu: German is a friend country and I won´t mind at all if they win the battle for the 3rd place. It will be a prize for their wonderful work at the world cup...

yes, everything is better than the sissi italians...

Marfitalu: And France know how to do it? Only if the referee gives them a penalti-kick, otherwise I haven't seen France shooting...

6. July 2006, 10:48:05

Subject: Re:

Pedro Martínez: Penalty cristal clear? Ahahah... really? You must be joking...

Oh, and how about the other one over Cristiano Ronaldo, a few minutes later? Wasn't penalty?

BTW, I don't understand why everybody says France deservd to win. How many "kiks for goal" they had? ZERO! Who had the ball the major time? PORTUGAL! I think that if Portugal had been the winner, it would be no surprise, acording to the game!

6. July 2006, 01:34:59

Subject: Re:

Andre Faria: I disagree. The referee was almost perfect. I would charge him only with a few minor things - yellow card should have been given to Ronaldo for mistaking the game with diving championships and the Saha's booking was not deserved. The penalty was crystal clear, BTW.
