Rule change, DOGSO is yellow if a penalty is awarded. In that case where even the keeper is already beaten it's got to be red though, they went from definitely scoring to having to convert a penalty.
yea, that's the thing that just makes no sense. He is past the keeper and alone on goal inside the box. There is no greater scoring opportunity. That player made that tackle knowing he was going to get sent off, but it was worth it to make them make a penalty rather than tap it in.

Why wasn't that a red?


That wasn't a red card???

Apparently rules don't matter at this World Cup. Keeper was way off his line. But that's consistent with the bad reffing all around.

I agree with announcer. Denmark goalie is pumped up. I wouldn't be surprised to see him make a save or two. Then again, he could be overeager and jump the wrong way.

I know what they were going for with that change but it's too soft. Wasn't it changed after Suarez deliberately batted that ball in 2010?

To be fair, that's hardly ever enforced at any level, and has been that way for decades.

He didn't even need to dribble the keeper the whole u w/o was open either side

If you foul while making an attempt on the ball in a DGSO situation and a PK is awarded, you get a yellow.

that's not as easy to do on the run as you think. the goalie is playing to stop that, which is why he was able to dribble him

I wonder how much the talk about momentum and energy etc is bs when it comes to PKs.

Yeah, that's the lane violation of soccer. Could be called 90% of the time but rarely ever is.

yea, most PK ive seen this world cup, the keeper is lunging forward a few feet before the kick is even taken

Great save for Croatia. Easy save for Denmark.

Both guys didn't guess.

Schmeichel shouldn't complain too loudly, he left early.
PatAg

for me, theres a difference between slowing your pace and actually stopping and starting again.

Read that like a 2nd grade picture book

That's two great saves for Croatia. But both were waist high balls.

Keepers move before ball is kicked. NEVER penalized.

Nobody wants to miss high, so all these shots are within goalies reach

I feel like players now are way too afraid of skying one.

If that's not a hesitation...

That looked more like a stop and start, but the save made it moot.

Refs have usually always let some movement go, but It's starting to get egregious.
birdman

Start, stop, hesitate and then hit it medium speed at the keeper. Bad idea.
JJxvi

If it's for the win and you can't lose with it I'm definitely trying to go high.
