[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goal_difference is a good read for those of us who aren't familiar with the concept.[/quote]

And for you:

Then take it up with FIFA. The rules make goal differential matter. If it's bad sportsmanship to score N goals over your opponent, then the rules shouldn't require bad sportsmanship. The rules aren't carved in a stone tablet that can never be changed. The rules can be changed. That they haven't been changed to this point is all the counterpoint I need to your "sportsmanship" claims. [/quote]

We should be better behaved than needing a rule to tell us how to behave. How they ACTED after scoring beyond the point of a competitive game was disappointing. There are no rules to guide their behavior and they had a choice of how to react and in my opinion their exuberant celebrations were childish at best. #legfart #respectthegame[/quote]

Have you ever watched soccer?
Over the top celebrations are standard at such high level games. This is not a single first pump is the standard. Football had to write rules to tone down celebrations. Soccer players should just know better?

The players are respecting the rules of the game. If the people running the games don't like what's happening, they have the power to change it.[/quote]

Agreed. So ban Neymar’s dancing, Ronaldo’s pelvic thrusts, Messi’s sky pointing, pitch sliding, cleat shining, etc etc and let’s be done with it. -Debbie Downer[/quote]
