Luis Suarez

Much has been said about Luis Suarez hand ball, against Ghana, that kept Uruguay in the match long enough to advance to the World Cup semi-finals via penalty kicks. I just know one thing is for sure it was a risk worth taking.

Football can be a very unforgiving sport. At the World Cup knock-out stages there is no game six, there is no tommorow, and there is no next year. The games become do or die and in Suarez case he sacrifieced himself for the team and does not deserve to be branded a cheater.

Ya se Desarmo

It only took seven minutes for my beloved Tricolor to lose their round of 16 match against favourites Argentina. In reality, the dream for a fifth World Cup match had vanished since the very first group game against South Africa. A win against the hosts would have gone a long way to helping the Tricolor face a more accessible opponeny in South Korea.

Waka Waka Bitches

The group stage of the 2010 South Africa FIFA World Cup is about to end and this is the very first post I make. I had planned to make more updates but instead ended up writting articles for Goal.com and PassionSports. Well, hopefully this will be the first of many World Cup related posts.

That said only one result so far has left me shocked and that was Portugal's 7-0 arse rape of Korea DPR. Even if Korea was walking around in fishnets, crotchless panties, and "fuck me" heels with a barely there top it did not deserve to be raped that hard. The beautiful game can be a bitch some times.

Zizinho Smash!

"What future do we have in Mexico, what is Mexico's future; people that are 50 years old or people like Jonathan that are young, what future does my son have there, my son is in the best club of the world which is Barcelona, how is it possible that he cannnot be with the Mexican national team at 20 years of age, this is why the Tricolor is the way it is," bawled a pissed off Zizinho Dos Santos after hearing that his youngest son Jonathan would not be part of Mexico's World Cup squad.

Interesting enough I had read Zizinho's reactions on Medio Tiempo's website and many of his supposed comments are no longer there. Zizinho sounded furious and claimed that Mexico did not exist (in the world of football) and even said that Tricolor head coach Javier Aguirre did not have any balls adding that assistant Mario Carillo is calling the Tricolors shots.

Last Chance

The match against Gambia is supposed to be Javier Aguirre's final test match before he decides which player he will leave out of the Mexican National Team. The main candidate comming into this match was Adolfo "Bofo" Bautista.

Bautista has already missed out in the previous two World Cup's and this could very well be his last chance to play at the world's biggest stage. The Chivas Guadalajara striker seemed poised to remain in the Tricolor and contributed to the teams 5-2 victory by socring two goals.

Tucanazo

When Daniel Guzman signed with Tigres UANL I was quite certain that he would turn the club's fortunes around in the same manner he had done with Santos Lugana. Well, I must admitt I was wrong as el Traviezo failed where many before him have.

I will go on record once again and claim that Ricardo "Tuca" Ferretti has what it takes to make Tigres a successful club. The no nonsense attitude the Brazilian brings to the table is what Tigres seems to be lacking. The club has everything from support to quality players. All they need is a good ass kicking to get rid of the complacency that seems to plague the squad.
