[Football] WC QF2 Brazil v Belgium

[Kinky Gerbil]

Looked like a pen. Could it be because the ball was already gone?

As I understand the laws it’s still a pen.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Ball was well out

Is that even a consideration? Can't it still be a foul where the foul took place?

Someone tell Danny Murphy that not everything is "absolutely sensational "
Getting on my nerves

 

[vegster]

I think that after the nutmeg the Brazilian player had lost control if the ball and could not have caught it up before it went over the goaline

Kompany's tackle was not good but did not deprive Brazil of a scoring opportuninuty.

I think not, the ball was technically dead at the time. Could still be a yellow/red though. And I may be totally wrong.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

The referee was listening intently to his earpiece. I reckon the ball was running away from the Brazilian, before Kompany caught him.

Absolutely sensational idea.

 

[Juan Albion]

Meanwhile, in the big game, Murphy has scored for Rangers vs Bury.

 

[SpongebobSquarepants]

Apparently Marcelo has been absolutely sensational by putting in loads of crosses without ever finding a team mate

Hope for Sterling yet

This is what I was thinking.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Eden Hazard and Ginger Kev are far more flair Brazilian than the Brazilians

 

[drew]

Why is this not being given as a penalty? Don't understand how the ref shouldn't go and take a look at that?!

Ball was out of play when contact made. Can't give a pen if ball not in play.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

These Brazilian players look so physically weak

I can’t believe the commentators didn’t know that.

[brakespear]

Thanks for clearing that up. Was never sure about that but always happy to learn!

 

[Dick Head]

Absolutely sensational!

 

[sjamesb3466]

Marcelo diving now

I really want to see another goal and a penalty shootout with Neymar missing the deciding pen...

If that happens, football IS coming home... and pigs might fly!
