no, he was suspended (red card last match)

all o.k.\nthe major problem surely now is Ibrahimovic not being able to play against England after his injury against Paraguay.

He canNOT for two reasons:\n\n> The Brazilian coach's name is Parreira, not Pereira.\n> It's the team's captain, not the coach, who lifts the trophy.\n\nSo, it will be Cafu ...

I don't think they really hold back... Let's just say that they do what they believe will be enough to get the result. (which is why they sometimes get jumped early on !)\n\nEven their manager says he isn't coaching them, he just facilitates talent. In other words - "here's a ball, go kick it into that net"\n\nThat mindset will get you past lesser teams but I think they will really struggle from now. Someone (or 2) really needs to step and make this tournament theirs, like Ronaldo did in France... and I can't see anyone doing that yet.

I think so. The coach is looking for a "team player" which is why he left Morientes off the team. At this rate, Spain will get abused in the World Cup.

Can only be Owen & Rooney if they're fit. Although Sven, being quite the out of touch Manager that he is, may choose to bring back the Vassell then let him mount Crouch the donkey and the two of them can ride off into the German sunset together. Beyond Rooney and Owen, I really hope he takes Defoe and Bent. Although, Ashton & Harewood might have a chance - whatever, I'm just a one-eyed, out of touch, dreaming Hammers fan who hopes to win a ticket to the World Cup by answering this!

we've lost owen, but rooney seems to be back (and could well be fully match fit after an outing against ecuador).\n\ni doubt if any world-cup squad can lose one of its best players and still be a favourite for the tournament - but teams have been lucky in the past (uruguay in particular).\n\nif england can get through to the semis anything might happen.

In Graeme Poll's mind...yes. I think he's given out 5 reds, and gos knows how many yellows. He gave a Croatian 3 yellow cards because he had forgotten that that player has already been booked... so there....

I truly hope not. The tournament has been a disaster in relation to refereeing performances. You would hope that for the biggest match of the tournament at least, that FIFA could dig up someone with a degree of competence.

Absolutely. This ref won't have a long future in World Cup football. He will have to stick with Premier League.

This was definitely his last game....he got a second yellow card, so he's definitely missing their next game assuming they get through.  this is Zidane's last world cup though, he's retiring after this.....

No, because if he did the racists win.\nThe Football Associations shoiuld have the power to dock points.  Fining clubs is not a deterrent to your average fan.  If, however, he knew that if he acted out of line his club might get relegated or miss out on the title, that might stop it.\nProbably not though.  The (so called) fans that do this sort of thing are mindless idiots anyway.\n\nYou'll Never Walk Alone.

Not at all.\nI totally agree with his tactics.\nRonnie is not as good as many other Brazilians at the moment, but on form he is brilliant. There are others such as Diego and Kaka who are better than him at the moment and deserve to play. Ronnie is not playing well at the moment, and his exclusion from the team might make him wake up and get back on form and thus rejoin. Players are not chosen to represent their country for their reputations, but rather their form, and he is not in that bracket currently.

I agree it will be a repeat of last W.C. but again Brazil will take it.\n\n-Joga Bonito

Let them play! \n\nAnd yes, it is tomorrow, against Paraguay.

Yes, same as last world cup. It you get a red card in the last game of the group stage (or a 2nd yellow), you will miss the 2nd round, otherwise the yellow card count is reset.
