Bullshit, modern day pen. Hate it. Â Â Look, pens are subjective. I respect your view of it. I'm just saying he missed the ball and hit him. To be fair, just saw the one replay.

Bullshit, modern day pen. Hate it. Â Play passive "possession" football, rely on set pieces and try to buy penalties. Even when going up against a team you're supposed to be so much better than. That's the modern way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right too, the replay wasn't very conclusive but i've seen this so many times, I hate that it's become an accepted thing to bend the rules and exaggerate contact. There'll be two views on all of these probably. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bullshit, modern day pen. Hate it. Agree 100%  A foul should be when you’ve prevented your opponent from doing what they could’ve done.  Pens for slight contact and players then exaggerating that contact comically will never do anything other than leave a sour taste in my mouth.

Keefaz Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago (edited) Disagree with this CUW nonsense. When Switzerland play, it doesn't say CHE, does it? I'd go CUO. Edited 9 hours ago by Keefaz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s Dick Advocaat FFS. They’re not just relying on set pieces, they’re trying to use the wings and get intricate interplay going to find a way round or through the blanket defence.  They’re not going to magically run riot. I think Germany have done perfectly well. The low block has sucked them in and Curaçao have had a couple of chances on the break, which is what you’d expect, and I think a better team will put their defence under real pressure, but they’ve done well enough today.
