The ESPN commentary team suggesting that Cahill's goal was technically more difficult to execute.

And Howard Webb can breath a sigh of relief, that he has avoided becoming the most hated man in Brazil, for turning down a stonewall penalty in the first half for Brazil, a disallowing a goal that I think should have stood as it hit Hulk's shoulder. Disallowing that goal was brave, but was a first class decision. There's no doubt in my mind that he used his upper arm to control the ball. Well done Howard Webb.

It's interesting to read the different takes on the Hulk infringement.
Everyone has seen the same thing from a variety of angles no doubt and there is a split opinion on whether the ref got it wrong.

Great goal from Rodriguez one of the best of the tournament, Van Persie second.

the ref and assistant referee were blind side so had to "guess" the decision as neither could see it, it took half a dozen replays to sort out what happened so good guess but it should have stood even if it hit the upper arm as neither could see it, for example if it hit his shoulder they would have disallowed it aswel as they couldn't see that either, in a roundabout way the decision was correct but not sure how they can give it

Which is why I am against the use of video replays. I support goal line technology because it is used to determine a simple fact (even if it is too complicated for Jonathan Pearce). I don't support the use of technology for something which is - at least in part - a matter of opinion.

If the use of video replays allows the official to make a more informed judgment I would have thought that was to be encouraged aside from the aspect of causing delays in the match itself.

That's part of the problem. In cricket it sometimes takes the third umpire a few minutes to make a decision. At least in cricket they don't have to interrupt play to call for a review. That wouldn't always apply in football.

Surely that Uruguayan should have been sent off for that. Wild, reckless or plain violent conduct.

So the first QuarterFinal will be
Brazil -v- Colombia
Brazil will need to improve on their performance earlier today.

Please find the thug responsible so he can be banged up for a very long time. The victim - who may possibly have had a few drinks - didn't seem to realise just how bad the assault was.
