He was a jackass. Suprised?

[Pfeife]

Croatian dive gets a German player sent off.

Wow that was a clean tackle by Modric!

[footyfan1]

Modric just got robbed! No way was that a foul! Frings flopped like a bitch!

[Gandalf The Red]

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet 2-1 croatia

[drahnier]

How many games will he be suspended for an immediate red card?

Modric just got robbed! No way was that a foul! Frings flopped like a bitch!
Agreed. That was all ball on that tackle.

And it's over, what a win for Croatia.

[footyfan1]

This is what happens when Germany meets a team who stares them in the face and doesn't back down or make mistakes out of fear.

[fanOfBayern]

This Rakitic - Modric - Krancjar midfield combo is terrific!!!!

[forza_azzurri]

Great ...Portugal and Germany play in the next round.

Gee who should I cheer for ???:D

[Pfeife]

Grats to Croatia, they were the better team.

[Suyuntuy]

Lehmann also got yellow.

[The Biscuitman]

Anyone know why Michael Ballack was dropped for this one?

:confused:

What, I haven't noticed him at all today, you sure he was picked?........;)

[sendorange]

Well deserved win for Croatia, should have been by more goals to be honest.

Proof of their quality and Germany as being overhyped.

How many games will he be suspended for an immediate red card?
After his offensive gesture, it could be more than only one...
