@EBL2017@billycarpy Because one is off the back of a moment where they might concede (heart in mouth) and one is in the middle of the pitch. Defenders are in a completely different headspace in the box.
@YankeeGunner There is no challenge, Balo is placing his foot, but at the end of the day he very nearly caused a serious injury.
I think it shouldn't be a red if its a freak collision and everyone's okay, but that's not how they call it. If it looks bad enough context goes out the window.
From @TheAthleticFC: Penalty shootouts are brutal. Is there a better way to settle tied games? A fairer way? A more fitting test of skills?
We asked our writers and this is what they think the World Cup can steal from other sports: nyti.ms/3SAbKgI
@afcDW People are super sensitive to Kimmich and Germany right now because they took a stance in Qatar but didn't in the US and are getting bodied for the perceived hypocrisy, they're being dragged into political twitter.
None of the World Cup winners from 2006 (Italy), 2010 (Spain) and 2014 (Germany) have won a knockout match since winning the competition. A combined 11 World Cups since for them.
@htomufc The sequence of events like Pep and Klopp occuring during an era of physical and technological revolution has created a monster. Get players back in pubs. 🍻
@BielsaBall Yeah I'm not against it in isolation, but if this gain is enough to deliver trophies - which it absolutely is - you know the board will consider the rebuild complete. We need to be better at set pieces but if we become Set Piece FC folk won't be happy either.
@JayG00nie@HLTCO@RealBigToshi Yeah I've noticed more and more Americans fully getting the sport and being normal fans, must be infuriating seeing these people come in and breathe new life into a stereotype lol
Truly unparalleled record.
84 nations have played at a World Cup. Not all have got past the First Round, but will have played knockouts of their confederation tournament instead.
Scotland the only one of the 84 who haven't done either. 9 World Cups, 4 EUROs, 0 knockout games...
@BBCSportScot The absolute epitome of the current SFA regime.
Entitled. Clueless. No football vision whatsoever.
Just blazers, a gravy train, and the usual chancers looking after themselves while Scottish football stands still.
Time for them all to go
