Graham Poll shows 3 yellow cards to Croatia's Josip Simunic
75 minutes in to last night's Croatia v Australia tie, I thought there was a very good chance of Graham Poll being chosen to referee the World Cup final on 9 July. He'd had a solid match, letting the game flow nicely. Then it all went horribly wrong for the Englishman. Here's a video of him booking Josip Simunic twice, having already booked him once before. A horrible gaffe, and one that could have been very embarrassing had Croatia won the game. FIFA has not yet confirmed that Poll's participation in the tournament is over, but you'd have to think he'd be very fortunate to get a second chance now.

Ronaldo: he shoots, he scores, he speaks!
Yes, Rotundo is happy to speak to the press now that's he's scored a couple of goals. Any Bratwurst readers have any idea what he's saying though?
