Croatia and Australia were grouped with Brazil and Japan in group F, in the 2006 World Cup. Croatia had failed to score in the two previous matches. They drew 0-0 with Japan, and lost 0-1 to Brazil. The third placed country in 1998 was in danger of bowing out in the Group stage of the World Cup a second successive time. Australia, on the other hand, was in a pretty good position. They defeated Japan 3-1, and lost to Brazil 0-2 after a good fighting performance. Going in to the last round of matches, Croatia needed a win to have any chance of qualification, while a draw would probably suffice for the Aussies.
The match itself is not major point of discussion as a World Cup moment. We have several similar situations over the course of 76 years. The interesting series of events started from the 61st minute of this match. Josip Šimunić , the Croatian centre back fouled an onrushing Harry Kewell near the Croatian penalty box, pushing him with the back of his elbow. Graham Poll awarded Australia a free kick and booked Simunic, with the score line then reading 2-1 in favour of Croatia. This was a normal booking, even if Simunic showed his frustration, and gave Poll a mouthful.
The second incident in this series happened in the 90th minute of the match. Scoreline was level at 2-2, and Australia was going through to round of 16 if the scoreline remained same. A clearance from Australian goal mouth landed in the centre circle, and with Croatian players near the Aussie goal mouth in search of a winner, the pitch was vacant. Two Aussie players were trying to take the ball to the Croatian goal, and Joshua Kennedy was almost breaking free when Simunic brutally fouled him from behind, tackling him between the legs. Graham Poll rushed in to show him the second yellow card. While everyone waited for the colour of the card to change and Simunic to march out, they were all in for a surprise. Perhaps, Poll forgot to take the red card out of his pocket! The game went into injury time.
In the final minute of the injury time, in the 93rd minute, Australia scored a goal after a throw in from the left came to the box, but Graham Poll apparently had blown the whistle before the goal was scored. The match ended soon after that, but Simunic continued his rant towards the referee, and Graham Poll initially tried to waive off the matter. But Simunic went on, and finally Graham Poll pulled out the yellow card, and subsequently the red card. The match ended 2-2 and Croatia was out of the World Cup.
So Joseph Simunic received three yellow cards in the same match and then received the marching order. This was the first time in World Cup history that such an incident happened. Poll’s assistant Phill Sharp and Glenn Turner, and fourth official Kevin Scott were shocked along with Graham Poll himself when they were notified about the “error” after the match. Graham Poll defended his action said he had mistakenly noted down Australian no. 3 Craig Moore (Simunic wore no 3 as well) after the first incident. Thus when the second foul by Simunic resulted in the second yellow for him, in Poll’s notebook, that was the first time Simunic’s name was actually noted down. Interestingly, Josip Simunic was born in Australia, and speaks fairly decent English with an Australian accent which might have confused the referee. FIFA defended Graham Poll as he admitted the error. Australia did not file any complaint, though a Croatia victory would have created a different story. Graham Poll did not officiate again in World Cup matches, and retired from refereeing."I like an aggressive team, I want to see a team that is strong, committed and quick on the break.
These are things which Atletico fans have always liked, it helps them identify with and love this shirt."

See tore artiklite sari on taas alanud. Tšiili 1962 oleks jalkafoorumis vast päris palju diskussioone tekitanud. Jääb mulje, et kohtunikud ei julgenud toona väljakul toimuva vägivalla vastu midagi ette võtta.the woman who hurt him must surely have trouble sleeping

Midagi, mida ma jalgpalliajaloost ei teadnud: teise maailmasõja ajal mängiti Inglismaal lisaaega nii kaua, kuni üks meeskond skooris. Kordusmängud polnud soositud ja pendlaseeriatest ei teadnud muidugi keegi veel midagi. Paar mängu kestsid kaugelt üle kolme tunni. Lugu ka.the woman who hurt him must surely have trouble sleeping

Esimene jalka MM Uruguais. Nagu võib lugeda, olid juba 90 aasta eest peamisteks kõneaineteks kehvad kohtunikud ja hullusti käituvad mängijad. Ilusast jalgpallist väga juttu ei tehta. Ometi sai väärt võitja välja selgitatud ja isegi surnuks peetud rumeenlane jõudis lõpuks kodukülla tagasi.the woman who hurt him must surely have trouble sleeping

Rootsi pealt näidati USA94 kokkuvõtet. Kummaline kui kodune tollane Rootsi koondis ikka veel tundub: Ravelli, Nilsson, Mild, Schwartz, Ingesson, Dahlin, Andersson, Brolin, Larsson. Maailmatasemel mehed. Praegune rootslaste koosseis ei ütle praktiliselt midagi.
Samuti oli vahva taas Hagi ja Stoichkovi näha. Olid need alles vennad.the woman who hurt him must surely have trouble sleeping

Algselt postitas Stok10 aastat tagasi nägin bulgaariakeelset Kusturica dokfilmi Maradonast, mis vist ei olnud Maradona (esindajate) poolt appruuvitud, vaid rohkem nagu fännifilm. Aga ülevaate Maradona elust ja tema ülistamisest Argentiinas andis seegi. Kas värskel filmil on midagi lisada, kui ma ei ole ei Argentiina ega Maradona fänn, nii et ilusad vutiklipid minust mööda jooksevad?

Seoses kinodesse jõudnud Lev Jašini eluloofilmiga tekkis mul küsimus kas tema vastu on mänginud ka mõni eestlane? Ehk isegi värava löönud? Kuskilt on selline fakt minu mälusoppidesse end nii ära peitnud, et konkreetse nime selgitamisega jään hätta. Kas teab keegi paremini? Võibolla hoopis eksin?"I like an aggressive team, I want to see a team that is strong, committed and quick on the break.
