Did Lewa invent this run before a PK last week? Looks ridiculous.

Was very close to him and he's turning away. Daft pen decision.
You leave your arm stretched out and turn your back and block the ball = pen

EVERYBODY knows this. You just can't do that as a defender.

Why are people so dense these days to football rules?

Terrible penalty technique. 3-1 flatters them and I'm glad they're out.

These are penalties now, arm has to be besides the body. Strict against defenders as that is a natural body position but defenders have to be aware of it now.

Easy win for France in the end. Hope England make it to give us another cracking QF.

Lewandowski was about to run off celebrating, and it dawned on him that they are losing :lol:

Yeah, refs are usually pretty consistent and give this pen most of the time.

I thought they'd banned that stuttering run if you actually stopped...

He'll surely be the all time goal scorer in the WC when he is done. Wow

And they wonder why people want England to lose at every major tournament.
The sheer arrogance is ridiculous. You don't see people already planning tactics for teams like France, Brazil(actual favorites) for their final yet some people are just giving England gimmies. :lol:

Desperately need England to make it past Senegal and give France a real game.
