    Crazy stuff. A full one metre it bounced away from the cross bar.

    Seriously, who runs off celebrating and lets the referee give you that?

    You're 4-0 up - show some cop-on and tell the ref it wasn't a goal.

    Referee should be suspended. Shocking decision.

    They're playing the new FIFA rules - hit the woodwork & it counts as a goal.

    Linesman definitely should have seen it if the ref didn't

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    Who is Linseman? The ref's assistant? Never heard of him.

    I'm trying to see did the ref actually look at the linesman, he takes a quick glance but did he award or did the ref?

    It's off camera so there's no way to be certain, but it actually looks like the linesman was the one who awarded it. Afterall, the assistant's signal for a goal is to run 20-30 yards quickly towards the halfway line, and when the camera pans back towards the referee as he awards it the linesman is no where to be seen on the touchline.

    No players ran over to the linesman though. Nor the ref :P

    Probably deflated after geting hammered 4-0 and then that happens.

    "[The assistant referee] must have good eyes - he lists one of his hobbies as reading" according to the commentator.

    Infallible German logic there.
