Did Robert Lewandowski take an illegal penalty v Denmark?

Always thought this would be controversial as the difference between feinting and stopping during the run up to a penalty can be so marginal and subjective. It should really go back to how it always used to be a clean run up.

The officials should see if it was an illegal penalty or not and if it was they are clearly not doing their jobs properly.players are allowed to stop during a run up to see if the goalkeeper moves but not again and again but I'm not too sure

They aren't allowed to stop but they are allowed to feint although as I said the difference can be quite finite and seemingly from the article very subjective.

Goalkeepers are idiots.  They get total protection from officials, moan at anyone when THEY concede a goal.

 

Anything that makes them look like the clown 'footballers' they are is alright by me.

This happens every other peno. Goalkeepers coming off their line when they shouldn't does as well. Sometimes both happen at the same time. Both are as bad as eachother, imo.

The rules are ridiculous and so grey at the minute. They should either allow feigning / stopping in its entirely or ban it all together.

 

In its current form, if the keeper faces a penalty taker they dont expect them to stop otherwise its an illegal penalty even though the penalty taker would claim its a feign.

You do know it was Kasper don't you?

I think this looks like an ok penalty to me, looks like a faint and not a stop, Kasper goes very early and Lewandowski cooly puts it the other way.

 

No different to many penalties ive seen really.

He dosn't stop moving so I don't think it is illegal, however doing it half a second before shooting is a bit of a dick move considering the odds are in his favour anyway.

He wont care though he scored the goal and it was given.

never really thought the feint was fair, then again it seems in 99% of penalties the keeper is off the line before the ball is struck.

 

think the taker should only be allowed a 1-2 yard run up effectively making him have to strike it from a standing position and the keeper should stick to his line or be yellowed and kick is retaken (if he saves it).

Kasper wouldn't have saved it anyway.

The last penalty I can recall him saving was Marvin Emnes nearly 4 years ago. 

 

His first season at the club I remember him saving quite a few. Ever since then he gets beat quite easily from the spot. Which is surprising really because his main attributes are his reflexes & shot stopping.

move the penalty taker back 30 yards and then he stop, or feint, or faff about as much as he likes.
