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

Don’t see why the Denmark goal was disallowed. Didn’t seem offside.


then any excuse to give Germany a penalty as Denmark risk winning!

 

[yankblue]

Oof. Both calls technically correct but so borderline and hypercritical. How does that improve the game?

 

[Paul1970]

The law says it hit his hand and tbh it did because the ball moved that way also Denmark’s goal was offside so no complaints

 

[Blu1]

Football is going to self destruct!

No fan wants these idiotic rules

 

[Mentis]

He did. And a lot of players do it and it seems to never get called.

Usually they don't stop completely (their secondary foot keeps moving), but Havertz stopped completely

 

[Citizen of Legoland]

Snickometer my giddy arse.

It looked like it hit his left hand first (which was tucked into his body) hence the two spikes on the snickometer. If so it shouldn’t have been given as handball.

When I tell my grandkids about football, they’re just going to say “that sounds utter shite Grandad” and then go back to whatever they were doing.

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

Is it just me or did Havertz actually stop his run-up for the pen? Not just slowing down, but stopping

Said exactly the same , definitely stopped, which isn't allowed in the rules. Yet VAR doesn't look at that ?? The game is run by amateurs, why can't Olivier see that.

 

[EricBrooksGhost]

I get the toenail being offside is a joke but if some opposition **** has his arm in that position against us we'd scream handball.

 

[jimharri]

If Germany play like this against the likes of Portugal or Spain, they'll lose. Even Austria or Switzerland would make it tough for them.

 

[rodders1973]

Var controversy in a match refereed by the English.surprise surprise.

 

[discopop]

Oliver really hasn’t got a clue

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

Do you think Bah's favourite sweets are by any chance humbugs??

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

That's another wank decision by Atwell and Oliver. Fuckoff.
No way are Denmark getting anything here, that is obvious.

 

[Bollo]

The Germans have activated Jammy Künt mode unfortunately. My take is that the current handball rules probably say it was a pen, but the current handball rules were written by the DWP.

 

[RayCTID]

Do you think Bah's favourite sweets are by any chance humbugs??

Or Lamb flavoured?

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

Yes he completely stopped. Bullshit.

The rule says you can stop in the run-up but not from the point you plant your non-kicking foot.

Law 14.2: feinting to kick the ball once the kicker has completed the run-up (feinting in the run-up is permitted)

 

[Craig]

The law says it hit his hand and tbh it did because the ball moved that way also Denmark’s goal was offside so no complaints

It hit his hand from at most 2 yards away. Utter bullshit

 

[skillman]

Was this really what VAR was brought in for?! Change. The. Rule.

 

[urban genie]

Atwells two games on VAR have resulted in questionable decisions
