Es una vergüenza!!!! Con eliminar al Juez no alcanza.
Ya es tiempo de cambiar las reglas y admitir de una buena vez el aporte que la tecnología aplica a otros deportes, colocanco cámaras estratégicamente ubicadas y filmando el partido.
Cuando se produzcan jugadas que generen alguna duda o reclamo debería pararse el partido, y verificar mediante la filmación realizada.
Los errores u horrores que cometen los jueces perjudican económicamente a jugadores, técnicos y a asociaciones, generando a la vez dudas acerca de la honestidad de los mismos jueces y de la propia Fifa.
Asimismo, debería hacerse como en el Basketball, con una mesa que indique la cantidad de faltas cometidas por los jugadores, evitando que los que faulean reiteradamente permanezcan dentro del campo de juego, cosa que sucede con frecuencia en la actualidad.

First apologies for my bad english

The translate says more or less:
"It's a shame... To remove the referee is not enough...
It is time to change the rules and admit once and the contribution that technology applicable to other sports, with chambers strategically located and filmed the match.
Where there are moves to generate any questions or complaints should stop the game, and verify by filmacin done.
The errors or horrors that referees commit make economic damage to players, managers and federations, generating doubts about their honesty and Fifa itself.
It also must be done as in Basketball, with a desk by the field showing the number of fouls committed by each player, preventing the reapetedly fouled action as it oftens happens today.

I'm totally with you on this one. Seeing Kaka sent off for not doing anything. There's nothing more I hate than these divers Evil or Very Mad. But still a great game from Brazil.

The World Cup reminds me why I'm not a fan of Soccer (or football to those outside of North America). The diving, the horrific officiating, and teams playing not to lose. They play defensive so the games are 1-1 or 1-0. Watching a 0-0 game is like watching grass grow. And the worst thing of all are those stupid whatchamacallit's. Those horns that make that inhuman noise. It makes me want to be a Soccer hooligan. The World Cup actually makes baseball look exciting. BASEBALL!!! Keep your 1-0 games and thosee annoying horns. I'm watching a real sport. Women's beach volleyball. Twisted Evil

disgraceful conduct on the part of Keita, faking a face hit , influencing a bad call on part of the ref, which lead to red carding Kaka. total bullshit -- they should bring in video playing back into the game. This is the 21 century, and most sports have adopted this technology for calls such as this.

I hate diving as much as anyone, but sadly 99.99% of all players would happily do it if it helped their team. Unfortunately diving and exaggeration are a part of football nowadays. What I don't understand is why anyone would want to be seen as not tough and strong?

I don't know if you know and could remember, but in some leagues when a player do something wich is considered wrong (in Spanish league someone caught Valderrama´s balls during a match) he is automatically punished.
So, I can not understand why FIFA do not do the same. If a player simulated an attack or agression by another player he should be automaticlly punished and the player who was sent of by referee shouldn't be punished and should be able to play in the nex match.
