    The Hand of Frog

    I don't even LIKE the Irish, but COME ON. What a TERRIBLE call. Then the sack of crap goes up and is like, yeah i did it, but the ref didn't catch it, so... sorry Ireland.

    Henry is going to have his ACL torn by the sheer will of an entire island channeling hate and anger.
    Everyone relax cause I got it....

    When will the last remaining major sport get the video replay? This state of affairs is embarrassing. It's not like this event was a rarity (although blowing 3 different calls on the same play is pretty good going even by soccer standards). We see blown calls week in week out in EPL and Champions' League.

    The arguments against video replay just do not hold up. Soccer should join the 20th century if not the 21st.

    "Major sport"?!
    Use the Shift key, people! Keyboard manufacturers everywhere are ineffably saddened when you ignore what they made just for you!
