***Official Brazil v Ivory Coast Thread***

[Slim]

Kaka got booked for trying to grab the ball for a Brazilian freekick, and for standing in the way of a player running into him.

Fucking shocking display from the officials, I suppose we shouldn't be surprised.

[Dameerto]

He swung his elbow into his chest though, so it deserved a yellow to me.

[MaineRoadMemories]

Kaka has not looked like a world class player in the past two games. Won't be a great loss to not see him for a game or two.

[Fidel Castro]

Kaka deserved to be sent off for being a whinging cheating crying big gay baby.

[Kyle]

I think after the few bust ups that had already happened the official thought he had to do something... Wrong decision, but the way the game was going you can't really blame him.

[Fidel Castro]

Oh and how the fuck didn't the referee spot Fabiano's TWO handballs?
Even looked like he sharing a joke with him about it after the goal, cunt.

[bobadji]

Reminded me of Thatcher, Kaka's shoulder charge, disgusting.

Are you having a laugh? Can't blame him? He sent a player off with absolutely no justification, but it is ok cos things were getting a bit firey?

I hope Fifa throw the book at the Ivory Coast player

[Dameerto]

Looking at it at normal speed it looks like a nothing kind of shove to be honest, the slow motion close up makes it look a lot worse than it is. I hope the Ivory Coast guy gets a punishment for his face holding.

I agree that was disgusting by the IC player. I was thinking thank god it wasn't Toure pulling that stunt we wouldn't be able to live it down.

Ref was garbage. Missed major stuff like 2 handballs by "Magic" Fabiano in the build up to the 2nd goal. Worthy of 2 points and a contract with L.A. Lakers. Also missed a blatant tug on Drogba's shirt in the box by Lucio. Ridiculous decision to send Kaka off. The game started to piss me off towards the end, players rolling around at the slightest contact. It was like watching a pitch full of Klinsmanns.

[Blue Blood]

On a Yaya note (he is meant to be signing for us tomorrow after all) i watched him closely all match, very solid, rarely fluffs a pass and looks good going forward (he got the assist on drogba goal too) also should be noted he as a fooking unit, unlike kolo, yaya is a real physical handful.

Fingers crossed we get him in :D

[Dameerto]

His first goal gets him off the hook for me - it was so good they should have credited him with two for it.

[Niall Quinns Discopants]

May I be first to say that both Toure's were shite. Yaya less so and in his day can be better but Kolo was the same fuck up he is for us. If signing Yaya means we are stuck with Kolo, I'd rather not.

I though Yaya was good - especially the ball for Drogba's goal - but our Toure was crap.

He played well against Portugal though.
