So after thinking this was a red against Ireland…paying attention works…it appears UEFA is making up for FIFA’s earlier faux pas in the Ireland-handball controversy department by sending off Armenia’s keeper for a perfectly legal play in an ultimately meaningless game, as Ireland will finish second (Russia v Andorra for the top spot – enough said).
Platini really wants the Irish vote for top spot at FIFA.
Remember when the Titanic sank? (Probably not, but work with me.)
It was supposedly the “unsinkable ship” and on its maiden voyage it, as we all know…spawned a movie with Leo and Kate and forced us all to suffer through that damn Celine Dion song for years. Also some people perished in the icy depths of the Atlantic ocean.
Well, the Olimpiysky National Sports Complex, the home of the Euro 2012 final, is the new Titanic. Except nobody died and it probably won’t be commemorated 80 years later in nauseatingly omnipresent multimedia. Big sighs all around.
Knowledge of the rules is a rather important concept, particularly when it comes to the tiebreakers of big international tournament qualifiers.
Long, painful story short: South Africa thought that the tiebreaker for AFCON qualifying was goal difference, while it was really head to head. Thus they erroneously thought their draw with Niger was good enough to see them through to Africa’s big footballl gala.
It wasn’t. And now their celebration – full with dancing – lives on in infamy.
The blue article of clothing in question should look familiar, as it’s the one Jogi Loew was sporting during the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. An item so desirable a German football museum has paid one million euros for it, crusty remnants of sinus spelunking and all.
It looks authentic, if only because it looks like most well-worn sweaters – like it’s been crumpled at the bottom of a closet in the corner.
For his elegant style of dress is Germany coach Jogi Löw already known. But during the football World Cup in 2010 over Germany Löw delighted with his bright blue sweater. In the shops of the Republic Strenesse – Strenesse was outfitter of the German team – the 199-euro sweater was made from the finest cashmere baby-cakes.
Comma missing, cakes made of babies, or Google Translate with another epic victory of humor over accuracy?
One of the most controversial games in World Cup history just increased and decreased in controversy simultaneously. That’s an achievement in itself.
The 1966 World Cup final was marked by the was-it-or-wasn’t-it-over-the-line debate over Geoff Hurst’s third and decisive goal. (Oxford research says nay.) It was then wonderfully relived in South Africa, much to the delight of the neutral world.
Turns out it could have been moot – three German players were apparently illegally under the influence of sniffles medication. Or something.
It only took 45 years for a mysterious letter to be unearthed from the archives.
And how convenient.
Three West Germany players tested positive for the banned stimulant ephedrine during the 1966 World Cup finals in England, according to a document seen by German magazine Der Spiegel.
Writing to German athletics chief Max Danz on Nov. 29, 1966, months after the final which England won 4-2, Andrejevic allegedly informed him that doping tests for three German players conducted during the tournament were positive for ephedrine, also found in medicine for treating cold symptoms.
It is unclear whether the players had taken ephedrine on purpose or through some cold medicine available at the time when drugs testing was still in its infancy.
Frightening thought: What if England had lost that game?
We’d all be moving to lands without access to English-speaking media.
