The diving and teathricals by Portugal and Italy (and many others) is nothing but a disgrace and they should both be disqualified. I wasn't the biggest fan of England before the cup, but I can say that the mostly play fair and don't dive at every opportunity so I am sad they are out.

Did you see that great actor Maniche (among many others in Portugal)?! If he lost the ball, he threw himself on the ground, holding his hands over his face as if he got elbowed and the ref bought it every time. He should have been given a red card and sent off. It was a disgrace. Reminded me of that great actor Rivaldo...

As for Rooney, apparently C.Ronaldo said something to make him go off completely. He might have a temper, but at least he's a honest guy and a hard worker, not to mention a great player.

I'm hoping for Germany and France in the final.
