    Maybe there is something to it

    Well far be it for me to make excuses for overpaid prima donas, but im starting to think maybe there is something wrong with the world cup ball. The amount of shots that are WAY over the bar or WAY wide is becoming farcical.......

    They say its tooo round, strange but true, also too light . I have to say it does bounce very high, as if its on tarmac. Im sure they'll master it by the end of the tournament. In all seriousness I dont know why FIFA have to change the ball from one tournament to the next

    They reckon it bounces higher because of the countries altitude.

    Well both teams use the same ball, and as pro's they should be able to use any tools of the trade, so no excuses (unless it's San Marino!!!)

    I'm sick of the bunch of wusses these days only wanting to play on perfect flat carpet
