I hope Croatia are awarded a dodgy peno in the 2nd half. Just to sort this out.

That’s the problem with it, the ref is now totally blameless as he can now see the exact point of contact but takes no consideration that it’s accidental. How long before we see the first amputee defender?

Got Griezmann on over 1 goal with my free bet. Please score again.

[bovril]

Great penalty by Griezmann though. Cool as a cucumber. 

[Izzy]

Looking at it again I think its very, very harsh to award a pen for that.

Yes, there was no way for Perisic to keep his hands down. Absolutely no way.

[foxes_rule1978]

Looks a Peno to me, he certainly moves his hand towards the ball, I think he full well knows what he was doing

Croatia have been robbed. Not a penalty and a free kick that led to the 1st France goal

Would be great if you could disconnect your arms. Would make sleeping and defending corners so much easier. 

[kingfox]

 that decision becomes more laughable everytime I see it.

 

Matuidi ducks and the ball hits Perisic unintentionally, nothing deliberate in that at all.

[Tuna]

No free kick, debatable peno, very, very harsh on Croatia.

 

If that was us we'd be Fvcking furious right about now !!!

[Aus Fox]

Watching it again, definitely a penalty. He clearly moves his hand down towards the ball.

[Izzy]

Some superb goals this WC.

No idea how you pick a winner from that lot

[Kitchandro]

So even goal of the tournament is biased towards the big teams and players.

 

How do Messi, Ronaldo and Chadli get in there but Son, Kolarov and Inui don’t?

 

 

[Unabomber]

Can’t be a pen as it wasn’t deliberate. Very strange decision 

[Guest]

He's got his arms out by his side and moves his arm downwards to the ball when he sees it. Penalty

[simFox]

Definite peno, was a reaction to stop the ball but he definitely put hand to ball

[Jimothy]

Watching the goal of the tournament list I think Musa is unlucky not to be on it for one of the goals he Iceland.

Di Maria’s is the best by a long way. Miles out, has to generate all the power himself, goes in like a rocket.

Musa against Iceland should be in with a shout too.

[bovril]

No Musa and de Bruyne vs Brazil?!

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Come on Croatia !!!

How can he know anything about it in real time when Matuidi is in the way of him? If Matuidi wasn't there then yes it's blatant; however Matuidi blocks his view, ducks and the ball unintentionally hits his hand.

[Unabomber]

Like pavards goal the best 

[foxes_rule1978]

Messi’s goal is very standard and how did Ronaldo get on that list...
