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

The offside law from the dark ages wasn’t designed to penalise such fine margins
Absolutely agree about the game clock

“But if toe nails of attackers offside are not considered gaining an unfair advantage, where do we draw the line? Are we going to also say that kicking a ball at a defender’s hand from one yard away is not a hand ball? Or that a player extending their leg out to drag their foot over or into a defender or keeper in the box should not be a penalty? Or that feigning a head injury—when replays clearly show no contact anywhere near your head—should not be rewarded by referees stopping play? Or—HUSH—assert intentionally trying to hurt someone in a snide way by barging in to their face with your shoulder should be punishable with a red card? The game will have gone mad!”

Oh really? Don't fucking say.

What was your old username(s)?

I'm confused as to why Germany went chasing more goals after they went 1-0 up. I thought in international football the process is you go 1-0 up, take your best players off and then start hoofing the ball up field or pass backwards?

Vanuatu.

Went there shortly after they gained independence in the early 80s, not sure they'd thought of VPNs in those days!

I just want to put myself on record saying I would rather have a half fit Akanji over ten prime form Rudigers.

Joke VAR decisions, it’s killing the game , surely a point must come when fans stop going to games rather than tolerate this shit .

 

[silvathechihuahua]

Disgraceful really with video assistance that they decided that was a penalty….piss poor!

Not a bad day if you have Switzerland and Germany in the swp at work!

 

[homerdog]

Rudiger given MOTM by UEFA, I guess that tells you all you need to know!

Pretty good result if you had £4 to £420 on the 2-0 double...
Just saying...
