An Italy fan gestures in the stands before the Group E World Cup 2006 soccer match between Italy and the U.S. in Kaiserslautern June 17, 2006.
An Italian-American Supreme Court Justice gestures right back.

Horrible REF!
Do you get a red for beating the ref up?

That would've been a yellow card were it his first foul.
However: Two yellow cards in a single game make one red.

The US will finish with 5 players.
To: soccer_maniac
Holy Cow how vicious was that? I never saw that much blood in a soccer match in my life. That's like watching Wild Animal Kingdom!
The Italians had to take Totti out because he is a hothead and would have gotten kicked out in the second half, so they switched him.
We should haVe never got a red card he came in from the side that should have been a yellow card, yea the soles of the feet were up but that was after the collision. That was overly harsh just because Italy play ShItaly don't mean they have to get over sensitive at our expense to equalize it out!
1-1 we are on course!
WHOEVER INVENTED THUNDER STICKS IS A PURE GENIUS!!
GO USA!!!

That´s it. Italy will score one more time, and the US can be lucky if they lose only 2-1. Given, that no more red cards are shown.

This is either payback from FIFA for the Italians getting screwed in 2002, or the Italians bought this ref like they buy their own.
Is it me or does it seem like they are intentionally trying to ensure we lose. I hate this ref!
To: wolf78
BS Call, but they should have pulled pope after the first US red card. This ref has it in for US.

Nice that Italy likes to play off-sides though.

They must routinely allow offsides in the Italian Leagues...
