I can't hear them.
Keygen, Korea will be in Germany, because they always qualify from the Asian section.

No, it doesn't. That is one of the most fundamental tenets of sportsmanship.

I guess history is referred in contradiction to your posts to help you understand that only one win doesn't mean much after overall. I guess that's why Brazil is a legend while Korea, well...

Again, It seems that you can only win by cancelling your opponent's goal(s). I guess for you a good team must score many times and in all games. Well, we are not on the 50s or 60s anymore. Most teams play defence so you shouldn't expect much goals constantly. Now nobody really claimed that Korea suck, instead they were considered as a hard team from the beginning (Japan as well). The difference between the two teams isn't that great, and in a game each can win. But take a look at the human potentiality of Korea, Spain and Italy. The last two have some of the best players in the world.
Anyway, congratulations for your advance and I hope you best luck in your upcomming game with Germany 
Just keep it clean

Korea doesn't suck. Korea is a good soccer team, I don't think anybody is seriously questioning that.
Italy and Spain weren't vastly superior to Korea, only slightly superior. Korea was a fair match for both of them, and they were very close in playing level for most of the game. The game could have gone either way, in a fair match.
However, in this case, Spain made one or two legit goals before the shootouts, Korea did ZERO goals in all that time.
Spain or Italy don't need to be "vastly superior" in order to deserve to win. You deserve to win if you're even minimally superior, period.
Korea WON the penalty kicks fairly, that's a fact.
However, Korea made it to the penalty kicks UNFAIRLY thanks to the referee. You DON'T deserve to win that way.
I don't think there's any conspiracy, just a strange series of pathetic referee decisions in many games...and coincidentially, Korea has been present in about two of those games, and those decisions were in their favor.
With a fair referee, it would have ended 1-0 or 2-0 in favor of Spain. Nobody's boasting that Korea's crap and Spain is golden, keep that in mind.
Simply put, Spain was slightly better than Korea. Not enough for an easy victory, but enough for a DESERVED and FAIR victory with a different referee present.
You can spamm all you want Yin, as it seems to be quite a hobby of yours, and it reflects your low level of maturity. At least the other people who support Korea's triumph have better arguments than YOU do.
PS: One more thing though, for those that say things like USA is better than Italy and equal to Spain....Soccer doesn't work logically...If A is better than B, and B better than C, C can certainly be better than A, etc.
Play Italy and play Spain, in a fair game, and then you'll know if you're better or not. That's not measured just by "how far we made it into the WC compared to them".
