Bundesliga news ESPNSoccerNet Referee attempts suicide ahead of gameNovember 19, 2011 Email Print Cologne's Bundesliga match with Mainz, scheduled to be played this afternoon, has been postponed after the referee was found to have attempted suicide. Babak Rafati was found in his hotel...

In case some may not be aware, according to Rule 53 of the Asian Cup's Competition Regulations, single yellow cards are written off only after the end of the quarter-finals (red cards would not be wiped out). This means that if Iran hopefully beats S. Korea, the following would miss the...

I predict that FIFA will come down hard on Henry for cheating and committing a blatant handball that directly led to France's goal in the first OT period, which allowed France to advance to the WC. Henry clearly stopped the ball with his hand about 1 yard from the goal line of Ireland, then...

With some luck from the Saudi - N. Korea match, either Bahrain or Uzbekistan will be Iran's first opponent in playoffs. Bahrain only needs a tie at home to finish 3rd, but Uzbekistan must win. Halftime: 0-0

With the 0-0 tie between Saudi and S. Korea today, we must 100% defeat UAE today. If we then tie SK, we will finish 3rd only if Saudi and NK don't tie in their last game (that would require Iran to win against SK). If we win v. SK, we will finish 2nd or 3rd (2nd if Saudi & NK tie; 3rd...

I know the local weather and different time zones make it difficult, but you would think that the Asian Confederation people would have scheduled the WCQ games in a way so that at least in the last week they would be played at the same time! But that is not the case, as on June 10th, Iran plays...

Is the start time of the derby listed correctly on the ISP Calendar as 15:00 Tehran time? Two Farsi articles on ISP's main page have it as 14:00. Please correct the Calendar, if necessary. We would not want to miss the entire first half. Please also show the time in a few other time zones (PST...

I am not sure if this has been asked and answered. When I open up every Farsi news article that is on ISP, the words are readable but appear out of order/sequence. Consequently, it makes reading the article nearly impossible. Any ideas or suggestions from ISP Admin or others would be...

Unless I am doing something wrong, why is it that the ISP Calendar is blank (there is no info. about games & times)? Anyone with info., please help.

Did anyone else notice 3 huge mistakes by the refereeing crew headed by Graham Poll of England in the Australia-Croatia match? 1. Ref. failed to show red card on the second yellow card to #3 of Croatia (at 90th min.), and ended up giving that player a 3rd yellow with a red at the conclusion of...

Unless someone else has posted a link to watch WC live on internet, here is everyone's chance to do so. I am watching England-Sweden now at work. Use Internet Explorer to see, Also the programming must be on ESPN not ABC in order to be able to see it. Here is the link...

Just announced that USA will play Germany on March 22, 2006 in Dortmund in World Cup preparation (8 pm local time, 11 am PST, live on ESPN). Let's hope that Iran can also schedule to play a high-caliber team like Germany. Probably won't happen!

Does anyone know exactly what happened to Masoud Moradi who was supposed to referee at the World Club Championship in Japan? Any links to news articles would be appreciated.
