Marcus Merk got the Germany game too... he's easily influenced by the crowd an who's on the pitch... 25-9 penalty count to Brazil in a first round game.

sorry, but merk is one of the best worldwide. mistakes are human. and by the way it was always like that. but if you want we can discuss every world cup and every wrong decision which was important. i know it's sad to see slow motion after slow motion in these days. it was sad to see 5 regular goals scored by italy 4 years ago, too. and some of them were really important.
but it's funny that 41.000 people can see figos headbutt (for example) on the big screen and the referee gives a shit.

the decisions were made. quarter final time.

GERMANY! GERMANY! GERMANY!

What I thought was interesting is that the same ref who gave the penalty to Italy was the ref who refereed the game between Australia and Uruguay that got Australia into the World Cup in the first place.

why?

Mate, Merk was shaking Brazilian players' hands during the game... that's not 'best in the world' material, that's not even professional.

Australians should run this sport:

I suppose not so much interesting, more of a coincidence. When I think back to it, that qualifying game was won on penalty shootouts rather than a ref decision.
