Germany v Denmark - Sat 29th June, 20:00 | Euro 2024 Round of 16

[Craig]

Must have been off the ball??

Yeah, pretty clear block on the defender marking the player who scored

 

[jimharri]

Soft, but probably the correct call. The defender who was marking Schlotterbeck was blocked (by Kimmich).

 

[jimharri]

Looked like Germany were robbed there, not a foul imo

Definitely a foul.

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Looks pretty clear to me, this isn't the NFL, you can't shoulder charge somebody off the ball.

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

See that all the time in the PL!
Also seen a Huak Tuah flag ha ha

Genius!

It is creeping in to football, particularly at set pieces. But it's obstruction.

 

[Coljj]

It's basically something in basketball called 'setting a screen' that sometimes is used in set pieces in football.

That would've been called an illegal screen in the NBA though as he's moving his feet at the last seconds to make sure hw definitely going to block his path ie - 'moving screen'.

 

[Don Karleone]

Only one result here.

 

[yankblue]

Ze Germans look good, very threatening going forward

One way traffic at the moment.

Ahhh, missed the off the ball thing.
Fair dos. I was watching it t for a couple of minutes thinking it stood, lol.

Still thinking about the Hawk Tuah girl…

 

[SebastianBlue]

Who's this Scottish woman.

You’ve just condensed something like three thousand years of history in the English Isles to four words.

 

[Chak19]

How many times have we seen players get away with that type of block in corners ? for me it's definitely a foul but the refs are inconsistent in their decisions.

 

[kippaxwarrior]

Only a matter of time before the Germans score. They've been more attacking in these first 12 minutes than England have in the whole tournament

It happens a lot but often doesn't impact play so referees will let it go. When it's the person who's clearly marking the goalscorer it's a bit of a different matter.

Standing your ground is one thing, but that was pretty clear he only had eyes for getting in the way of the defender.

Yep, or A ‘Pick’ which is slightly sneakier. Guy stands in the right place to block the expected run. He’s legal as he was already there…

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

How many times have we seen players get away with that type of block in corners ? but now it's a foul ?

I can't think of a single instance where something like that has led to a goal and been allowed to stand - but I'm happy to be proven wrong.

 

[yankblue]

Bit soft that. Bailed Sane out of a poor touch

 

[ShaunMCFC]

He’s class r Sane

 

[Stelea]

I need to tell ye, Clive
