Clearly, but that does not make it wrong.

How can you be sure that I don't?

Two people can watch the same play and come to different conclusions. You guys seem a bit touchy being that all I did was express an opinion. Calm down, folks, I'm not trying to "fix" the game. Just calling it like I see it.

No, they consider that when deciding if it should be a card (yellow/red), not whether to give the penalty.


Not true. A referee is not likely to award a PK for a hold if the ball is sailing 20 feet over that player's head and out of play.

Had he held him or his jersey, and then let go, it's not called, he fricking form tackled him to the ground.



It was a perfect tackle. Lol. If you argue with that than I have no words. It was a penalty

The problem is that they show the replay in slow motion. Of course it'll look like he's being dramatic when they show it the same speed as a Baywatch lifeguard running towards the ocean.

Wrong. Absolutely, 100% wrong.

IMO, if he did what you say he did, I don't have a problem with that. I'd prefer him to stay on his feet, but if it's a foul before he "makes the most of it" I'm fine with it. That stops, however, if he tries to get the man sent off.

Big difference between selling a foul and conning the referee.

You are right, although It depends on the ref and the type of day he's having.

Hey just stopping by to chime in and say you're wrong. It was 100% a penalty regardless of the Uruguayan throwing his hands up

Forlan is so past it, I can't believe he made it to Brazil and is actually starting even with the Suarez injury.

Bad timing. Before that strike, Forlan had not looked good.
