    No offense meant to our Korean bros, I made several great Korean friends in college.

    This team however plays way too dirty for my liking, I'm glad they're eliminated. Not all their fault, game was tainted by a criminal referee.

    If the ref was "criminal" he wouldn't have awarded the penalty and mexico wouldn't have won. :cool:

    Mexico are fantastic! When England go out I'm going to support them. In fact I might move there! Lovely climate, great food, great football.

    You really don't agree? Some of the worst refereeing I've seen in a World Cup. The penalty was one of his only good major calls.

    If they play like today they could at least potentially lose with a couple vs Sweden. But all the stars must be aligned... Pipe dream. Sweden is out of this tournament 95%.

    So he was only criminal when he made calls that didn't go for Mexico. Sure, I can go with that.

    For the most part that is exactly what happened, so what's wrong with going with that? To be clear Mexico did deserve a couple of yellows. Difference is Korea deserved a couple of ejections.

    Can't disagree, but if not for the ref's actual decisions, Mexico would not have won the match.

    I sense something fishy, but sure I can go with this. Calling him a criminal was a bit extravagant but definitely some of the worst refereeing I've seen. He's lucky Mexico didn't lose their composure because what he was doing is exactly how a ref loses control of a game.

    Mexico much better team work and were better "mentality". South Korea played better than previously and were beating by Mexico in a tight match, they left a good impression though.
