Frankly, buddy, that don't sound right.

Frankly, buddy, that don't sound right. You have a point. Let's say Ribery didn't realize he was setting up Govou ;-)

Ummm no, he called a push on Gourcuff when an Uruguay was *jumping* (somewhat awkwardly, as the ball was at an awkward height) to head the ball. He then gifted France that dangerous free-kick that ended the game. There were also several instances he bought into the gamesmanship o fthe Uruguyans.
