You think so?  I thought it was pretty soft. And I'd rather see England win.

It's a little soft, but I've seen way worse given.

And it can be avoided by not making contact with the dribbler anywhere below the waist.  You really can't blame it on the ref.  Don't touch him.

Fucking nails is hitting a shit pen and getting lucky with the rebound?  It was a dive.  

Lol I don't get the England hate but whatever. He had his progress to the ball impeded by two defenders inside the box.

This. 24 with a hockey style hip check. It was a touch soft,  but called.

That shouldn't have been a PK.

I agree. It's soft. And in added time in a semi-final. You should never give that.

Sure.  I was just kind of taken aback by the "Clear as day" comment. I thought that was a 30/70 or 50/50 decision.  

Prevent a win defense fails to work. Weird. 

In a year of athletics asterisks, England should get a big one.  But they won't...because England.  We have to make sure the most composed people get some breaks to keep them from whining.

Yeah, I was just thinking that with 100 different refs, that's probably a pen 30 or 40 times.  It's not exactly egregious.

That was weak soft shit. Terrible

Jesus.    That’s such a weak ass fucking penalty

Fuck Denmark for parking the bus.

No idea how England is going to deal with a defensively stout team attacking them at pace at every opportunity.  It's not like England can just keep the ball like Spain did.

sterling took a dive, and anyone who says otherwise is full of shit. he fell down screaming like Terry Tate had just run through him, when in reality what little contact there was wouldn't have knocked over a piece of paper machet. total horse shit. i hope denmark scores and then we get a 120' OG by Sterling.

Hope Italy wins now.
I want Denmark to come back and win this. But absent that, I'll take Italy shellacking England. England absolutely is aggy about soccer.

Well he’s English.

Grealish off

Well that's just interesting now, isn't it?  :/

Is it a foul if it's outside of the box? Yes or no? 

It's really that simple. It doesn't have to be a cardable offense. 

i think it was the hip check that earned the penalty even though he was already going down

Agree that it was a soft penalty, but also agree with this. The Danes invited disaster by playing so negative and all but begged England to score.

Is it clear enough to tip the scales in a quarterfinal match? I'd prefer he didn't call it and let VAR take a look.

In terms of European soccer disdain the list goes...

  1. England
  2. France
  3. Italy

Oh well go Azzurri I guess haha

Lemme guess, Grealish was taken off to keep his legs fresh so he can watch the first 70 minutes of the Final from the bench?

If Denmark could actually get the ball into the box, I wouldn't be surprised to see the ref look to give them a pen if given half a chance.

Hope Italy wins now.

I can’t believe it has come to this for me as well. Lame. Well, at least it’s not Portugal or Germany I suppose.

Forgot France. Fuck them too.

Probably?  But I don't know that this is the actually way these things play out in real life.  

It just makes no sense. One of the top 3 players on his squad, with fresh legs, and the best player in the country at keeping possession...

 

 

...sub him off

Refs been calling soft shit all night (both ways). He’s a considerable drop off from Byrch in yesterday’s game that told Spain/Italy to cut the shit early in the game.

Denmark appear too tired out to get anything inside. 

Hey Denmark, you kind of need to win the ball back, you know?

Fantastic because he's holding the ball and getting fouled every 2 seconds.

It's the way I see it. And looking at the replay, it was totally a dive. If that's enough to call off the penalty then so be it. But the way I look at these things is is what the defender does a foul and that hip check fits the bill. i.e. if Sterling doesn't dive he gets fouled and it's probably a pen. 

Idk. Denmark's bus parking was also getting annoying like Buzzrock said. The better team is up.

People mock Southgate, but a World Cup semi and a Euro final is good.

I have enjoyed Denmark’s strategy of when in possession of the ball, allow the Angerland’s to get up on you before moving it again or dribbling.   Italy could royally fuck England employing that strategy

so is 8-5 in the sec with 4 fcs wins

It is. And it's not like England has a bunch of newfound talent. Well, maybe they do, but they've always been an extremely talented side. 

I don't think Southgate is great or anything but it's hard to argue with results and England NT manager has to be one of the most criticized jobs in sports.

Denmark is wasted. They can't get this ball back.

The ghost of Eriksen couldn't make it across the channel.
