I'll say it again, FIFA needs to start depending on Cameras for controversial calls.

Firstly, the fact that Argentina scored so many goals shows you how good they actually are.
Secondly, the team in 1996 did not have Gabriel Batistuta and he has score so many goals for Argentina. You goalkeeper at the 2002 would testify to that.
Finally, How many Nigerians have been voted world best footballer or player of the tournament (world cup)?

Our population is 4.5 million. I know your teacher didn't teach you to get the facts.
Secondly, we've won the zone 2 tournament twice.

Dude, this is not the NFL.
We're talking about football or as you guys call it "Soccer". We don't want machines to take away the human side of our game.
If you don't like the way our sport is run, you can join your idol Sola in watching NFL, and asking for cheerleaders.

Thankfully, the trophy went to Argentina as usual.

Oh please.
According to the commentator, football is the 5th favourite sport in Australia. I'm not happy about the penalty decision, but what I'm saying is that we need football nations at the crucial stages, not teams like the US and Australia that knows nothing about football.
Having said that, we also need fairness and equality at the world cup.
