Drawing of lots ONLY happens when the results are identical. The results themselves don't have to be identical, just the totals and head to head. If Ghana lose 4-2 and Australia win 3-0 both will have identical records and a head to head tie, lots will be drawn even though individual results were d...

If not Concacaf

Ironically this went to air before the game was played in the "Sam, Santo And Ed's World Cup Fever". Kim Jong Il saying they won and it was already in the newspaper (aptly named the Pyongyang Times). They got the score correct. http://i350.photobucket.com/albums/q431/bodoglimt/footballnews...

Gary Bloom told us that too

A good old fashioned drop ball.

It was my mistake, but actually it's pi not pie.

very similar to the rivaldo incident as well.

Roberto Cuntos's dive over Petter Møller (Denmark) comes to mid as well.

I was typing the first half of the sentence as the red card incident occurred so I had a head start.

Looked harsh to me.

This has been entertaining and now we have a red card.

Cutie Pi - The Blue Hearts (great lyrics)

It's only offensive because you find it offensive, therefore it's your fault.

Yeah, the same though occurred to me too. Bit of a poor way to decide who qualifies though, but tbh I can't think of an alternative. Years ago they had playoffs. For Euro 2008 there was a provision for a penalty shoot out if it was between two teams meeting each other in the final group game (almos...

Some Kind Of Girl - The Cockroaches Beautiful Life - Ace Of Base Whoa, what happened here. Some pr ic k goes in with a late tackle, but no matter the ref has waved play on. I'm sure Swanny originally posted a song called Wonderful Life... never saw what followed. Referee must have been miles behind...

You might knock it, but it'll just get up again.

Brazil will be the second team to book their place in the second round if they win this.

We'll never know because without that goal would have been a penalty shoot out which could have gone either way.

0-1 !!!!

I thought more or less the same thing.

Simple solution - don't handle the ball. And I agree with Kitch:
