Totti was a very unique player. Even when young, he didn’t have much pace, yet he’s always been a technician of the ball, handling it with with ease and doing things other players could not imagine. Watch and see how Totti’s elegant performance was unfortunately stained by 2 suspicious yellow cards and an exit from the World Cup in this famous match.
Italy vs South Korea 2002 World Cup.

  1. Italians should have straight up beaten that ref to plum… Thats would have been an excellent rebuttal to corruption in this great game.

  2. Watching this, you realise how disgustingly corrupt that match was. Totti should have been awarded a penalty at one point and that red card should never have been shown when he was fairly tackled. The yellow was harsh, too.

  3. Biggest scandal in a World Cup game. That referee should've gotten jail time.
    But 4 years later a lesser good Italy team won World Cup. It's just a shame that Maldini didn't lift the trophy.

  4. Interesting story, but what does it have to do with Totti getting a yellow card for an elbow in the face of his opponent, and a second yellow card for diving ?

  5. Him and Joaquin (now just retired) both dropped top performances against Korea this tournament that ended up having unfortunate endings

  6. totti가 훌륭한 선수인 것은 틀림없는 사실이지만 다이빙에 관한 얘기는 모두가 눈 감고 있다는 것이 슬프다 냉정하게 100번만 돌려보자

    1. 수비수의 ball touch
    2. totti의 다이빙
    3. 두 선수의 부딪힘

    이 영상은 불편함을 숨기려는듯 모든 장면이 담기지 않았다 다른 영상도 찾아보자 댓글은 무시하고 영상 자체에 대해 냉정하게 분석 해보려는 자세가 필요하다
