Euro 2024

I suppose you could argue whether Rodri really tried to play for the ball or not, but unless a player commits a terrible foul or doesn't try to play the ball at all it's not a red card.

That's literally the rule now.

"Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offender is cautioned if the offence was an attempt to play the ball; in all other circumstances (e.g. holding, pulling, pushing, no possibility to play the ball etc.) the offending player must be sent off."

Ferran Torres

I can tell from the demise of Bulgarian football 15 years ago, when midfielders start waving hands with the ball at feet "open up, guys" it's over.

Was I wrong about us. Looks like another Euro fail. Guess were gonna have to wait for next WC

Bro, in 30 years of watching Croatia vs big teams, we had 1 decision in our favor in 20 key matches.
Red card for Germany in 1998'.
And like 10-15 decisions against us.

When you play against Germany, France, England, Spain, Argentina, Brasil, you can win only:

1. if you win 3:0
2. if you reach pens
3. if you avoid any contact in your box for 90 minutes

But it is hard to argue here, where people think that WC 2022 wasn't rigged, so why bother

You got the decision in your favour though mate. You were awarded the penalty…

Xavi really wanted us to pay 60m for Dani Olmo.

 

[Horatio]

Croatia does really well in buildup. ]*{^ finishing and defense today

Xavi really wanted us to pay 60m for Dani Olmo.

We did pay 65m for Ferran. Thank fuck Xavi’s out

 

[soul24rage]

Good win for Spain.

Shame Croatia was jinxed.

 

[fergus90]

13 goals in 3 matches so far. Lovely stuff!

 

[Windhook]

No surprises there. 60m is the average value for good to great players.

Unless you are buying directly from South America. Which is a Russian roulette.

 

[te amo barca]

I want to see Fermin on as a sub next game… no more Olmo terrorism

Unless it's Barca. We love spending that much on average players.

Olmo is better as an advanced midfielder, but the guy really need to learn to pass the ball.
