I've forgotten what good crossing is like. What are the chances of Santon putting one like that in.. -

God, I do hope Costa Rica progress tonight, or that quarter final match featuring Greece and this new realism Dutch side could be embarrassingly boring. -

Isn't tournament football supposed to become better at the knockout stages? -

Simple as that really. Well then don't tell me Fred didn't earn that penalty. He got a slight pull on his shoulder and fell, defender didn't even go for the ball. Not comparable imho although I can see why you are desperate to make it seem so. A slight tug on the shoulder/shirt happens hundreds of times in any given match, on both sides. An incident like this doesn't. Had Marquez not touched Robben he would have had a very good chance at a shot or pass (yeah right) to somebody in a better position. Eh ? players slightly catching players happens over and over and over in every single game, it's up to the ref to decide if the contact warrants a free kick. Or if a player has dived as Robben does on a million occasions. It's a contact game ffs, not a tarts paradise of luvvie acting school. Out of interest, and obviously inconsequential with regards to the later shenigans, but did you think the incident in the first half was a penalty? Absolutely, twice in fact. The first contact was hard to spot because the ball hit Robben on the back of the foot after being fouled by the chasing player making it look like the defender got the ball, but Marquez then cleaned Robben out, nailed on pen and the clearest one of the whole tournament. -

We can discuss until the cows come home, but ultimately I do think it was a foul and to be denied two possible penalties today when we have conceded two extremely soft ones before (Diego Costa step on De Vrij, Janmaat handling the ball shot from a couple of yards out to his dangling hand while in motion) would have left a sour taste in my mouth if it meant we would have gone out. -

That's ridiculous, Fred could've turn and shot if the slight touch doesn't come either. Neither are penalties, but I'll leave it at that. -

That picture means nothing, look at the moving pictures ffs. Any single image can look worse or better. I have looked at the moving pictures. Marquez is nowhere near the ball and his only intention is to stop Robben skipping past him. I couldn't care less what Marquez was up to, Robben threw himself to the floor, he wasn't knocked or nudged, he threw himself over a leg. Threw as in dive, as in cheat. I'm not denying he dived, that's not the point and I have already stated I am not proud/happy about that sort of behaviour. I do think there was a foul however, which makes the decision to grand a penalty justifiable. To be perfectly honest it's one of those you can give, but had he not given it I would have understood even though I would have been frustrated (as I was about the earlier incident which I assume you agree was more of a pen than this one). At that point it was 1-1 though, and although it can't be proven I do think we would have probably gone on to win it anyway, unless Mexico could have shut us out until the pens. The equaliser was the real match decider. Up until that point I didn't think we were going to find a way back in it, and we possibly didn't deserve to. -

Of course i am, it's not a penalty and not a foul. It's a contact game and it's barely a touch that Cheatingcunthead has thrown himself to the fall over. If you think a touch like that is a penalty you're mental, the game is infested with c***s diving around like that because of the merest of contact. Problem is now more and more are convinced s*** like that is a foul, because the c***s who run football are too scared to pull them up, and have a go at manager like Mourinho who openly imo encourage their teams to dive. Arrogant as i ma put it and sound i will not be turned on something so blatantly clear. I say that as i watch it spread to kids football, diving, play acting, cheating and abuse from young uns copying c***s like Robben. p*ssed off with it tbh. Ok You did ask So I did. -

Bimpy, are you saying you don't think it was a foul?
