I agree Es***. Had this one gone tits up after those clangers, we'd have had a riot on our hands. This is what pisses me off with FIFA. They are so wrapped up in world politics footy wise, they ought to concentrate more on the bare essentials like refs and linos. First 2 have had a nightmare.

The ref in the spain / dutch game is a different kettle of fish he's a top ref the italian.

Well he's just been conned there Es***. That was as much a penalty as Romanis will make the next home match.

He pushed his leg behind him, into the sliding defender then fell over, shocking. He had already turned him. My lad plays centre half and is going ballistic.

This tournament is already becoming a farce.

It was clever play really, Nigel Clough was clever at things like that back in the day, players like Martin and Hughes at Derby try hard at it and fail miserably

[tricky1972]

What gets me is that the TV commentators saying it was a clear penno, when watching the replay.

Missing a dive in real time is excusable, missing it in slow mo from 3 angles...???

Joking apart Es***, it's cheating. The cameras are on it, there is replays of it etc
The refs miss it or are scared to stop it.
It's ridiculous.
