If France was awarded a penalty for Honduras’ barge on the French player in the box, really, the episode with Gerrard could have been called and pk given to England. But I’m happy to see the refs let them play but they do need to be consistent.
I read some of those Iran players even got in trouble for being for the “Green” party in Iran. Alright, sports and politics is different and don’t mix but Iran probably is behind a lot of the guerrilas and rebels, violence and what not going on in Iraq.
So, we’ll see about this Iran/Nigeria game tomorrow.
Ironic and Nigeria has their own problems with extremists, Boko haram.
