Dissalowed Goals
I’ve come to notice that Argentina are slightly unfortunate when it comes to goal decisions:
First: Against Ivory Coast, the ball goes clearly past the line, but play on.
Second: Against S&M Crespo runs past the defense and scores a goal, it was wrongly given an offside and he got a yellow!
Third: Against Mexico, in the dying minutes of the game a beatufil set up which leads to Aimar passing it to Messi who scores is given a very wrong offside decision!
Does anyone else find this really annoying?
Besides the dissalowed goals we really need to improve on our finishing. Crespo shoulda scored that goal against Mexico.. and Tevez had many chances against Holland and Mexico aswell.
I am glad that we have many things to improve on from the last game, we can only get better and I hope we benefit more from refereeing decisions.

Frederick go suck on an egg its has some proteins in it which might help you with your deficient diet & resultant central nervous system problems.
Guys yes we have had 3 goals disallowed.
But the standard of lining in this tournament has been very poor.We must not get into this complex that they are against us just go out there score our chances & then it doesnt matter if they are conspiring against us.
And that was an excellent point from wamdiego about video technology.I’d never thought about it in that way.
No wonder Blatter is dead set against it.
PS England have their 66 triumph but thanks to the referee in the QF v Argentina SF v Portugual again strange decisions & of course the final aided by the Russian linesman.
Dont forget how the so called gentleman of football Ramsey called our players animals & stopped his players from swapping shirts.

Thanks for putting shuan lawley in his place Sergio being a Trinidadian who loves Argentina
understands fully well the well justified suspicion that fifa has something against Argentina..
I mean Brazil i believe if they were in Argentinas group would be out already..
i dunno how its done but i think Brazil enters the tournament with the draws set in favour of a team that is stuttering and gets a easy ride to progress..
I would have loved to see Brazil of 2002 come through that group of death..
and 2006 in this group…
Brazil is good i will give them that..but one cannot turn a blind eye and ingore that they get some helpfull nudges along the way…

Fabio:
You’re wrong there is cheating:
In italy it has been checked, Juve, milan cheated, and all Inter and Roma fans noticed it.
So why would not it be the same with the FIFA ?
There are too much mistake, the video would not be used for each action ! Damn stop being silly !
We should use the video just for goals allowed or not, penalty given or not( when the referees has called a foul, when the game is stopped)
The video would be used maybe 5 times a game no more, it woul take 30 seconds each time…
But the FIFA disagress because they could not make win Brazil or Home team, they could not make lose Argentina. It’s their buisness.
Nike invested so much money in Brazil, they must have a result….

I could not agree more with you. refs these days, did you see the holland portugal match? That Russian ref is not gonna live much longer if he decides to go to Holland for a holiday. They have video playback, but the ref chooses to make his own decisions. Why not check the playback, so Argentina’s goals could be allowed, fouls can be checked etc etc. But no, this is how teams lose. The referee just turned the whole game around for Holland. It was not to my liking. Now Holland is Out, i will support Argentina, altho some of my fellow dutcman do not agree. But i would NOT like to see Germany win!

Fabio. I agree with you. I’m just fed up with referees who don’t their (easy) job.
I’m just saying that FIFA manipulates SOME games by including a trend with the help of a referee chosen by FIFA, that support a team excluding another one.
I hope i express myself good, my English isn’t excellent.

Wamdiego! You say exactly what i think. Thanks man.
Everybody, don’t complain if we lose because of the referees. It isn’t the WC, it’s the FIFA cup. Different.
Posted from
France




Come on wamdiego! IF an enterprise is behind any cheating this cup, it has to be Adidas… isn´t it the German company? Isn’t it an official sponsor for FIFA? Hasn’t it invested a lot of money all around the globe?.
If you’re rigt, if they wanted us out of the cup, trust me, the Mexico game would have been the perfect moment… again, remember the Heinze tackle (and, btw, why is it that nobody acknowledges that the referee saved our lives showing a yellow card instead of a red one?).
If you’re right, if what happens in Italy applies all the same to FIFA… why not to AFA? Why not to Spain, England, Europe, SouthAmerica, Concacaf, etc.?
If that is true… how come Argentina (AFA) does not withdraw from FIFA and quits all the WC tournaments? That would mean death for FIFA. FIFA (actually, football for that matter) cannot exist without Argentina, plain and simple.
Again, if it all goes into helping the Big Teams into the finals… well I consider Argentina in that club, so following that line of reasoning, referees would be helping us into the finals (then again, it is only my opinion). No! I think we have earned our place in football. As well as Germans, Brazilians, and Italians have earned their place in football. To my opinion, these are the “Big 4.” Above the rest. But I also think that once in a while a bad referee helped us, and once in a while a bad referee damaged us.
As for referees.. well Europeans keep complaining about how bad refereeing is “outside Europe.” Well now they have it! The best referees in this WC have been ¡Oh my god! Elizondo and Archundia… and Argentinian and a Mexican. And the worst have been an Englishman, a Russian, and a Spaniard.

My Cheating Argentine friends,
Glad to see I wound you Argie weasels up good and proper.
VIVA LAS FALKLANDS
By the way I’ve heard that Blatter & FIFA are spreading a rumour that an Argentine shot JFK
P.S.
Send my love to that old pikey Maradonna when you see him

YEs ! you’re right FABIO !
GERMANY will win because od adidas ! IN 2002 it was Nike’s Brazil, but today we are in europe and it is up to adidas to win now, so being in germany it’ll be Germany… But FIFA wants brazil in final…
It is cheated everywhere.
The enterprises, the company are behind WAR, behind governments, so pffff, of course they can control football ! Are you kidding me ? If Argentina was with Nike we would have won in 2002 or 1994 !

Could’nt agree more Shaun Lawley,
I am Argentinian who is supporting Trinidad and Tabago as I am embarassed by my countrymen.
Cambiasso’s lack of hair, Messi’s blatant cheating (see Del Horno’s sending off in the Champions League) and Maradonna the human football. Except when you kick him a white powder appears.
I’d love to kick the pikey in with a bat.

When was the last time a team not wearing Adidas or Nike won the world cup?
FIFA are already being investigated for dodgy business deals with the bankrupt ISL whom FIFA agreed TV rights etc. I wonder what would be found if Nike or Adidas ever went bankrupt? If nothing else the bungs paid to FIFA by ISL proves that FIFA can be bought.

*Apologize. It CLEARLY was a dissallowed goal on Messi. But in all honesty, how can you guys complain about the referee, those were some pretty nasty fouls Argentina got away with. *Especially the one on Fonseca.

You guys really are paranoid aren’t u?! I don’t suppose Argentina has ever lost to anyone without it being the ref’s fault? Always an excuse isn’t there? Anyway get ready with your excuses boys as you are going home on Friday… Byeee

LLC: Thanks for coming back to the blog, after Denis Susic left we were missing a real clown. I still remember some words of you “Holland has a better footballing side”…”Argentina wins by fouling, cheating, etc.”…yes indeed all the world could see how good the football of Holland is and how fair they play (but I have not seen your comments neither in the Netherlands blog nor in the Portuguese one, probably you think these two teams had an incredible fair game).
I’ve taken a look at the Australian blog as well and OMG hay many one-eyed comments are there. But you aren’t an Aussie, are you?
Regarding your comment on going home next friday, maybe we will, maybe we won’t. But please go ahead saying so every game we play. You have 31 over 32 possibilities to be right. Sooner or later.

Rain: Thank you for your welcome back to your blog I must say I have missed the banter with you guys. Did I say Holland played fair.. my goodness must have had one too many that day!
No, I am not Australian although I half supported them as I live here and thought they were very unlucky to go out of the cup. Down Under I am known as a POM… See you in the finals!

LLC: Yes I agree it is a real pity the Aussies went out like this. But as many times they were complaining about Grosso cheating to get the penalty it seems they forgot they had one more player for 40 minutes due to another questionable action from the referee. So, in my eyes, both teams are “even”.
(And BTW, what does POM mean?)

OK, FIFA conspiracy theories…cheating theories…blantant chavinism…racism…hello? “A time to make friends” ringabell? Firstly, It is wrong of people to blantantly put down a team by calling them a cheating, fouling squad. Sure, you cheat, you foul, but then are all matches won this way? Was the 24 pass goal a result of cheating? Was Rodriguez’s shot a result of match fixing?
Argies too should stop complaining about the reffing. I’m not saying the reffings been good (Reffing if effing, couldn’t resist the pun) but this sorta spirit just aggregates El mano de Dios arguements and what not. Sometimes, maybe the reffing is correct, even though it feels wrong. Incorrect reffing is all a part of the game: no one team is targeted. Sports are meant to bring people together. Even if you dont like a team, you dont have to bash it in certain aspects that are always undecided and undetermined. Sure, critisize their poor play, speak out when you think it’s a foul, but please, posts like the Albiceleste is a foul cheating team that sucks and stuff don’t help any. Discuss soccer, not the theories behind it and all. It will be really appreicatable if aeveryone just got along, more pleasent to read the blogs. You may hurt the sentiments of many passionate fans (of any teams) by those rude comments with no basis in real soccer.
Messi wasn’t cheating, IMO. Perhaps a red card was too much but however on replaying the vid ten or so times, It was a clear push by Del Horno after Robben dived at the ball.
On a more contreversial note, surfing for Arg news, I found Crespo’s thoughts on this topic-
Crespo questions referee standard (27 Jun 2006 09:01 GMT)
Hernan Crespo has questioned the quality of World Cup refereeing and claimed Argentina have had three legitimate goals wiped out already.
Crespo said: “We have won three matches in this World Cup and in those three matches now we have had good goals not given by the referee - for Ayala against Ivory Coast, for me in the second match and now for Messi against Mexico.”
“Referees can make mistakes but at a high level you have to question whether they are the right people,” he added.
