Because you dont get given yellow cards for over-exaggeration of contact

Right or wrong morally, going by the rules the referee handled it the way he had too

I respect your opinion but honestly i dont agree, worst that the red card given to Pepe ( i repeat that i dont like him too and he shouldnt do that kind of things) was the provocative reaction by Muller without yellow card, that has nothing to do with the standards of a professional player, this has to be for both sides, Pepe isnt satan and Muller an angel, if u get my point, sorry for my bad english. :)
 
How was the referee on Germany-Portugal, ***** like others so far or...? Missed that game, was at work but i heard that there was a penalty and red card. Was it justified?
Now watching Iran and Nigeria, now that's some god awful football...
 
Iran vs Nigeria is easily the most boring game of the tournament so far but I don't mind at all. My money is on Iran and I hope the second half will bore you guys to death (H)

I understand mate, but i don't even think it's down to a matter of opinion in this instance. He moved his head forward in a motion to headbutt a player, it has to be a red card whether he made much contact or not

If until the rules change it will continue to be a red card offence
 
It's easily a red card offence following the letter of the law but the inconsistency so far has been shocking, Pepe gets sent off however Costa and Pogba didn't. Also the penalty was an obvious goal-scoring opportunity. The referees have been shocking so far.

I understand all that your saying, he was an idiot doing that, but i still believe that it should be yellow card, even more ridiculous is how it is possible Muller didnt see yellow card too, or are you saying that Muller attitude was right too ? !!

I see where you're coming from - I hate when people drastically exaggerate contact, and I was really ****** off after that red. It definitely doesn't feel fair that Pepe gets send off for something like this. But he also has only himself to blame, and ref was just following the rules.

Ref was good.

Half-fit Suarez and in Cavani they have a striker that always seems to be invisible whenever i see him play. Despite them being dangerous if we can take our chances and remain positive in attack i'm fairly confident!

Couldn't agree more about cavani, never seen him play well, overrated in my opinion

Mikel thinks he is messi! This has been so poor by Nigeria, Bosnia and will tear them apart if they play like this
 
First draw of the competition. Not surprising the way both sides have played.
 
That match belongs in the South African world cup, not this one. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

I think he's a bit of a **** tbh.... the most annoying part is letting him score such an easy goal... wtf were Cahill and Johnson doing I'll never know. Trying to somehow switch over during a cross for some odd reason.

I don't think he has done much these days to be considered a ****. He had some antics back in the day but they were never malicious. Even his scrap with Richards and Mancini was considered small. I do agree with you on Johnson and Cahill, Balo simply out jumped him when it came down to it.
