BTW, some advice for over backers in the cards market - always check if that crazy JApanese chap is or is not in charge - he hates showing cards. This was already his second match, and there were not too many tackles, but especially in the first one he was over-lenient.

Cheers Tulenos

Yeh a good point about that referee - he only showed 3 yellows in his previous game (Senegal - Tunisia) and 2 of those were for diving. To be honest, I have to praise his approach, and his performance in that Senegal match was good IMO, He punished the cheats but also allowed the players to be quite physical, something I like to see.

But yeh he doesn't like to bring his cards out - there was that incident today when the Zambian player reacted, I've seen guys been sent off for that before lol, but there wasn't even a hint of a yellow!!
