Frings will now not play against Italy after Italy complained to FIFA about Frings hitting out. I wonder how much Italy bribed FIFA to do this? Now Italy not only use their dirty tactics on the pitch they also use them off the pitch! Italy is a disgrace to football!

link?

Thank you Italy. First you dive in the Australia game, now you work together with FIFA to suspend Frings! Nice job, i already know that all your players will try to dive in the penalty zone again tomorrow.

It was just on German tv and radio give in a few mins.

Here is the German link though:

No doubt Italy will use their same old tactics...cheat to win!

Oh, like Engurland? (Gerrards dive against Hungary, Crouch's climb against T&T to score, Joe Cole's constant "simulation")

Your lack of self awareness is laughable.

Now the Germans will bloody show the italians how to get kicked out of the world cup
That's the mentality of the Italians never could loose and now before such an important
game they [beep!] their pants but with or without Frings no chance for the spagettis

Wait till they play the Italian national anthem tomorrow in Dortmund you never
felt nearer to the hell Italy

Also , remember to link where did you get aware of Italy's call for enquiriy against Frings and quote the official complain.....lol

Thats ridiculous, FIFA is a joke. The spaghettis know pretty well frings is a key player for ze germans. Blame the italian media. Corruption, again ? Gutted.

See my comment in "Germany or France for 06WC"



I totally agree with you guys. You rock!

I don’t really understand your easy scandal.
- Totti spat at Poulsen’s face: he was banned.
- De Rossi hit with the elbow McBride: he was banned.
- Materazzi was (not) dangerous with a(n) (inexistent) foul: he was banned.
Frings punches Cruz: you want no disciplinary action ?!

So why don’t you read the FIFA Disciplinary Code (http://www.fifa.com/documents/static/organisation/disciplinary_code_EN.pdf) - page 33:
ARTICLE 47 – Physical injury
A player who deliberately assaults someone physically or damages his
health will be suspended for at least four matches. An official who commits
such an infringement will be suspended for at least eight matches.

Come on, let’s be honest and let’s play football honestly.

1) we dont give a watch the language - yeek if frings plays or not, please stop say that we bribed fifa, because fifa decided to suspend the krautiman for the weight of the fact, the FIGC isnt involved
2) ok, we're not the best nation over the world, but please stop, you're becoming unpleasant

Italian media affecting FIFA's behaviour....any better argument here? Yawn.....

Come on, mate. Anyone gave watch the language - yeek about the incident, except LA Republica (or whatever its called).
Even Cruz was laughing about it. They just wanted to put the pressure on FIFA.

From my point of view, both Italy and FIFA dont have balls.

No problem, we've got Borowski.
I think he's better than Frings, but we'll see.

Wouldnt it be cool if he or whoever will replace Frings would shoot a goal? I would so laugh about Italy then.

now It`s is Italy`s fault???????????'


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahaha shameless...


nonesense.


GO ITALY!!! GO!!!

Ok. Here's the screencap.

To me, it seems that that arm is actually not Frings' at all, but the German player right in front of him's... note the angle of the arm.

I'm still in wait for anybody linking any article with Italy requesting disqualification on Frings, ok ,except Bild and Spiegel , please talk on facts...

Italy didn't solicited any enquiry, again.
More, I believe that almost no team here can give morality lessons to anybody else.
