Wow a lot of people have been sipping that hater-aide in this thread. What the hell are some of you talking about? I remember those Korea matches clearly, and they ******* pwned Italy. Forget the damn linesman, Korea had to score to win didn't they? Stop hating.

Not even close, 66 played identical to 62, and 62 was the same as in 54 (I've seen full games of those World cups)
If your argument is 66 just cause "england won it", then ill argue that it was 50 "cause we won it"
but seriously, the modern era was 1974, when the football officially became the prototype of what it is today.
Common, we cant take away one of Holland's great contributions to Football (which was the 74 "total football" team)
well that was the part that raised eyebrows.
Like Italy missed their chances, so people thought "Ok....the refs just screwed up"
But Spain? They actually scored 2 legit goals. TWO. Like had Italy scored im starting to wonder what they would have called ("Uh.......offside?")

god some of you guys really hate korea. it's funny, because disregarding everything that the korean nt has done in 2002 is disregarding hiddink's skills in coaching (which I'm sure all have utmost respect for).
much better things to do than cry over the past, like waiting for what's more to come. I'll be enjoying 06, and hopefully korea can displace all doubts about its unusual skills (as an asian participant).

This is not about dissing Korea man. Its not about any National team. This thread is about poor performances by officials in all previous World Cups. Korea has benn mentioned as have England, Argentina, Uruguay, Italy, Spain and others. The comments made do not reflect on the Korean National team at all.

Well im not saying 66 was modern becuz we won it
its just that when I watched some of the games in 66 they looked modern.

Well football was always played well.
People think of "1930s" football as "A bunch of no skill guys kicking the ball around and having limited skill"
The same plays existed (Give and goes, set ups, crosses, tactical changes, defence). But back then the game people still ran, but it wasnt what happened after 1974, where even the most technical team would get destroyed by a good physical/trained one.

Agree. Brazil was the one to pass to the final against Holland. But as a lot of people say (and argentinians deny it always), there was a lot of $$$ going one here, coming from the military argentinan goverment that wanted their NT to win to distract the people of what was happening in that country in those days.
It's a shame that our players had lost on purpose in that match, a lot of things happened after the 78 WC, suck ass players that played in that match like Manzo or Rubiños ended playing in Velez and Independiente, and of course when they were back on Peru they had new cars and a new house. And football didn't payed that much in those days.
But ... heh, we always helped the argentinians, don't forget we were the only SA country to help them in the Malvinas Islands War. (of course chileans went with England
)I was just watching the recap of the 1990 Italian world cup. And Maradona in a playoff game, I forget against who, used his freakin arm again. This time to stop a goal that was going in. How in the world did the refs miss that one???? I forget who it was but they should have gotten a penalty and Maradona should have been sent off. How many times did this dude use Gods hand???

The ref for the Italy Korea game was terrible on both sides. You are conveniently forgetting the elbow to the face that Italy did not get red carded for. The defender wore a facemask the rest of tournament in case you have any doubts.Spain got raped by the ref, I genuinly feel robbed and it will be long before I forget it.

we are out, they are in
i guess we lost it in the long run
Leave UEFA and join the AFC, I'm sure you wouldn't miss a World Cup for 50 years.
And no you didn't eliminate Korea, Germany did.

If Italy were complaining about the decisions in WC 2002, they should look how lucky they were in 1982, when Roger Milla put Cameroon in the lead with a great goal but it was chalked offside when he was clearly a mile on side. It finished a draw, and sent through the Italians who won the world cup while Cameroon were eliminated without losing a game, it'd have been the opposite had Cameroon won, its funny that this is never mentioned while they cry about 2002 over and over again. Vieri (i think) had an amazing chance to win it for them in extra time. Who I really felt sorry was for Spain, because they did everything they could, yet had two good goals chalked off and also the Korean keeper clearly moving way off his line in the penalty shootout, yet the referee was blind to this.
