    Kane instigated that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,399 ✭✭✭✭ThunbergsAreGo


    I don't think that's a pen at all


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,388 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    Sanchez one of the stupider players at this World Cup.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,827 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    They shouldn't be allowed to swarm the ref like that.
    Warn once then send someone off.

    forwards are going to get very good at "engineering" penalties


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,295 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    The referee was not looking at the most important part of that, I think if he watched it back he might not have been so quick to give it.

    Exactly. Kane tunnelled his way through him.

    Stupid by Henderson. Couldn't complain if he'd seen red there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,827 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    Christ theyd try anything. Messing with the peno spot. Ffs.

    Bull****. Kane engineered that


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,827 ✭✭✭✭Panthro


    Bang.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    GET IN!!!!!!!!!
    :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,397 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    At least the ref was consistent but Henderson should be gone.

    Stone wall pen, he jumped on his back :pac:

    Henderson lucky.

    Kane is one calm penalty taker.

    One of our own


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,019 ✭✭✭davycc


    Pick that one out ospina


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,495 ✭✭✭✭Billy86


    The last few minutes have been some joke, ref should have given 3-4 yellows for time wasting by now.

    Didn't mind who won before kickoff, firmly up for England now with all Colombia's sneaky, dirty play. Fair play to Kane after waiting how long to take that?

    if the ref gets a handle on this time wasting we could be watching this past midnight


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,014 ✭✭✭✭Corholio


    Definite penalty, madness from Sanchez.

    Sneakily nasty from Stones there, very lucky.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,225 ✭✭✭marklazarcovic


    This game is Everything that's wrong with football,ref has zero control


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Tunisia
    Panama
    Belgium (dead rubber)
    Colombia (without their best player)
    Sweden
    Croatia/Russia

    We’ll likely never see an easier route to a World Cup final in our lifetimes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,037 ✭✭✭✭niallo27


    He climbed all over his back. How can people think it wasn't a penalty. The old anti-England bias is clouding your judgement on it.

    Sweden have already beaten Holland, Italy and Germany.

    Awful. Ruins it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    We need to be very careful around the penalty area now. Anything remotely iffy and the Colombians will be mob handed around the ref, and he'll be under intense pressure to even things up.

    We nearly had a handy route ourselves back in 02 if we beat Spain.

    Cause South Korea were rigging every match so they may not have against us.

    Ridiculous dive

    Some of the posts about the penalty on here were laughable.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,612 ✭✭✭eigrod


    That’s a dive. Ref has lost the plot


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,295 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Dreadful dive from Maguire,

    The Colombians should not be reacting like that though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,397 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    Pathetic from Maguire.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,167 ✭✭✭✭pjohnson


    Colombia a disgrace.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,744 ✭✭✭✭AdamD


    Colombia are a disgrace


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,014 ✭✭✭✭Corholio


    Awful from Maguire. Not looking for a penalty after a dive doesn't mean it wasn't a dive.

    This meltdown could only be funnier if Falcao were to talk his way into a red card.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    The Colombians are a horrible mob. Deliberate late challenge on Stones.

    Hoddle "Maguire was very honest about it, he got up and told the Ref it wasn't a penalty"

    :pac:

    Agreed. And they have a farcical run of games. And people are saying Russia have it handy.

    Maguire was a dive, definitely. Two red cards? The Colombian and Henderson?
