The 2010 World Cup in South Africa will be filmed in 3D for the first time, it has been announced. - LouCypher from Bookmarklet

"The instant replay is already a reality for soccer fans watching games at home, making poor calls on the field all the more obvious. FIFA still has time to add the instant replay to its rules before the World Cup next summer, when scrutiny of referee decisions promises to be even stronger. What do you think? Should soccer add the instant replay, potentially slowing the game’s natural run of play, or should it continue to defer to human judgment?" - LouCypher from Bookmarklet

No instant replay; it'll cripple it to be like American handegg. - Fulaan, inna Hebel

@Maxamad: agreed! - LouCypher

"Why does the mere mention of Liverpool Football Club strike fear into some of the greatest names in the world game? Is it because of the famous Spion Kop and the mythical spirit of Anfield's 12th man?   Or is it the trophy-laden history that has seen the likes of Emlyn Hughes, Kevin Keegan, Kenny Dalglish and Steven Gerrard secure glory both home and abroad?" - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

"Violent clashes hit the Egyptian capital after the national football team lost a World Cup qualifying match to Algeria. Christian Fraser looks at how Egypt's failure on the pitch has exposed deeper frustrations inside the country." - Fulaan, inna Hebel from Bookmarklet

"Liverpool took the honours in the Merseyside derby as Javier Mascherano's deflected first-half shot and Dirk Kuyt's late strike gave them victory at Everton." - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

My gosh, we've won a game! :-) - Kol Tregaskes

"Liverpool limped out of the Champions League despite victory over Debrecen as Fiorentina beat Lyon in the other Group E match to seal a place in the last 16." - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

We're out, I can't believe it! :-( Season over for Liverpool already? - Kol Tregaskes

Spurs on Cloud Nine. Defoe scored five. - LouCypher from Bookmarklet

"Liverpool and Manchester City fought out a draw at Anfield that failed to provide compelling evidence to support the claims of either club to finish in the Premier League's top four." - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

I am surprised to see Manhattan, New York was missed :) - Paul L. McCord Jr.

"What is truly dispiriting about this skulduggery at the Stade de Fraud is that the perpetrator was Henry, an individual admired within an oft-criticised game for possessing principles. Until Wednesday. If hitherto good guys like Henry are sacrificing their scruples on the high altar of "the end justifies the means'', then football really has lost its moral compass. The governing body of the global game, Fifa, must react strongly to an outrage more harmful than Diego Maradona's Hand of God. Maradona was a serial charlatan. Henry was not." - Roberto Bonini from Bookmarklet

Anyone who's ever played football, even at a recreational level, knows that instincts take over in the penalty area. Once in 100,000 times, a handball in the box will result in a goal. This time, it happened in a big playoff. Bad luck for Ireland, not bad morals on the part of Henry. - Joel Zehring
