dave111223 Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 The most undeserving red card ever... What did he even do??? Atleast Rooney would have been able to put his PK away. (Yes i'm bitter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 He hardly deserved a yellow for a push, and harldy deserved a foul for stepping on Portugese player. Instead he gets red. <deleted>? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edh Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 (edited) Ouch! Simply by stomping his opponents balls = RED CARD - correctly judged. Rooney, bye bye. Edited July 1, 2006 by edh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophon Posted July 1, 2006 Share Posted July 1, 2006 Ouch! Simply by stomping his opponents balls = RED CARD - correctly judged. Rooney, bye bye. He was asking to be sent off. I don't know what put the referee over the top: The stomping on the portuguese player (which to me looked intentional), pushing Ronaldo or mouthing off at the referee. Put everything together, and I think he got what he deserved. Sophon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lampard10 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 I do apologise for my feelings on another post. I can see now what I did not see before. I must admit I completely missed the stamp. And I thought that it was Rooney being fouled. New glasses are in order I think. Although in my defense, I will say the pub was full and I had the customers needs to attend to.

jackr Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 He was fouled, Lampy. He was jumped by two of em, but he reacted, which is why he got booked. To be fair, England played played really well with a man down and perhaps deserved a better result (notwithstanding the other 4 games ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Croc Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 I've watched the incident over and over on the news today. I think Rooney knew the guy was there when he stepped back. It's one of the more difficult manouvers in footy, the step back and push off, and he didn't quite get it right. You have to be looking forward at the moment of contact. I broke someones ankle using the method in a different code many years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calibanjr. Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 If the red was for the stamp, O.K., I guess. As to pushing Ronaldo, I wanted to punch him in the face for his incessant diving, whining, and "working the ref". I'm a Yank who's indifferent to the fortunes of England and Portugal, but I thought the Portugese team were disgustingly cynical up until they went up a man. Still, Rooney got played by Ronaldo, gotta keep your cool. I wonder what the ManU practices will be like now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simmo Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 [I'm not sure if Ronaldo dare go back to Machester. Yeah , surely Man U has to sell him now. Can you imagine the stick he's going to get from the crowd this premier league season, and the media will be all over his back. Not to mention the locker room atmosphere with Rooney. His diving & cheating antics belong in the Spanish & Italian leagues anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sing_Sling Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 I've got a Dutch friend here who is as pi$$ed at the pathetic antics of Portugal as most others here - what's amazing is that they have got away with it for this long and the refs are none the wiser - let's hope the French knock their socks off in the next game.

angie Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 God help him (Ronaldo) is all i can say. I am from Manchester and most of my family and friends support United although i am a City fan myself and they are all already slating him. Life will be hel_l in the Uk when he returns for sure, and he will be unable to cope with all the fans from every club and of course the British Press!

nonthaburial Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 This morning I have watched over and over again this incident. Do I believe Rooney deliberately stomped ? no I dont ! In fact if anything I feel that Rooney should have been awared a foul for the attention he was receiving from the two Portuguese players. So my view is that the stomping incident was not the cause of the red card. The next was the physical pushing of "smirk face" by Roonrey, again I feel that the conection was minimum, which was not helped by the reaction of "smirk face". This was possibly a yellow card offence and not a red. However, what I think most people have missed was what appeared to be a torrent of verbal abuse by Rooney on both "smirk face" and the referee and in my humble opinion was a justifiable red card offence. Rooney has a track record of lack of self discipline and I feel that he was set up rather crudely by Ronaldo and he fell for it hook, line and sinker. and I think Ronaldo's wink as Rooney was walking says a thousand words. So did Rooney deserve to get red carded ? I think he did, however the referee was also at fault for allowing the portuguese to pressure him and as for Ronaldo, well I guess he has no future at all in Manchester now, he probably realises it himself, hence his comments after the game about wishing to join real Madrid as quickly as possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opothai Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 fifa are to investigate rooney's violent behaviour. it seems funny that they can not investigate figo's headbut, but they must investigate rooney, if they are to use tv evidence for one then they must use it for ALL. what a bunch of clowns and this bunch run one of the most lucrative sports in the world today, taking bribes selling tickets on the black market, giving the official stamp and ticket rights to thier friends, and this is not speculation it has been proved.

kayo Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 My Take. Ronaldo fouled a foul worthy of a yellow card. Rooney got baited and took the bait and unfortunately deserves a red. You don´t kick a man in the balls unless you´re about to be killed. Much less so in football. Ronaldo is absolutely a <deleted>. Only man worse is DECO (is spanish rhymes with GUEKO=spineless poof) .
