Switzerland v Spain | Euro 2020 Quarter Final

[Boo or Boo-urns]

Ginger Prince starts!

 

[domalino]

It wasn’t a high challenge, just stop tackling if they are going make that a red card

It was high, he made contact half way up his shin.


Why do we go through this every time someone get sent off?

You can't go studs up into someone's shin. You can't go in 2 footed, and you're asking to be sent off if you lunge in after a heavy touch.

I don't think there's a referee in the entire tournament who wouldn't give that as a red.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Ginger Prince starts!

pep never learns

 

[Gray]

Oh goody another 30 minutes.

 

[domalino]

Caught him with his trailing leg which is on the floor

Now you're just making things up.



You can see completely clearly that the leading foot makes contact halfway up his shin. 30 seconds in.

 

[ws01]

Can see the Swisse nicking this again. Spain playing their worst game of the tournament thus far

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Footballs becoming a non contact sport that was a fair challenge for the ball

Shoulder to shoulder, but the diving Swiss bastard decides to hit the deck and Herr Böttler obliges!

 

[Blueknows]

Oh goody another 30 minutes.

Spose it saves waiting an hour before the Italy Belgium game

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Can see the Swisse nicking this again. Spain playing their worst game of the tournament thus far

Spain play a game that always seems eminently beatable.

 

[paulchapo]

There is no doubt Laporte is a fine defender. The goal wasn't wholly his fault but he does have a tendancy to be amongst goal conceding cock ups in quite a few games.
