Sheep007 posted... Genuinely curious, which rules? I'm fine with offside being decided the way it is, any part of the body that can be used to score is a pretty sensible metric all things considered. Flawed but any way of deciding offside would be. Stoppage Time Penalty Kicks deciding ties Red cards resulting in ejections Flopping --- https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BdWiElvIQAAQpBt.jpg ...

masterplum posted... Stoppage TimeSome of these aren't all that traditional and were brought in because they were necessary to make the game more playable. First one I agree with, stopping the clock would make more sense and I think that will probably happen soon. It's a massive pain in amateur matches, but I'd genuinely like it. Penalties are a great way to settle ties and when they were brought in tournaments become much more playable. Replays were the old method, but some teams getting forced to play an extra entire game (which often still won't be decided) is awful. The half an hour of extra time at the end of fixtures is a good compromise, if neither team can pull ahead by the end of that, penalties are better than any other solution. Before it came around, time-limited tournaments would literally draw lots to decide the winner, and I think penalties are pretty much the best way to decide things that's easily available. Red cards are absolutely fine. I don't see any better way to deal with violent or dangerous play, and the last one isn't even a rule. It's even been reduced in recent years by some rule and refereeing standard changes (at least in my opinion). --- Perhaps the golden rock was inside us all along. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Okay so We got a corner, then the referee had to check for possible penalty, it was not given (fine), but then we did not get the corner and instead a goal kick was given?

RyoCaliente posted... Wow, Denmark was very disappointing. They should have won. Maybe the match effectively being an away match factored in, but yes, that was disappointing. Mostly the finishing. A lot of time this year we have lacked finishing but often get bailed out by someone scoring a screamer.

Mexico suck too but we just aren't doing anything or even making an attempt to get forward. Zielu and Lewy anonymous. Ochoa should be in a retirement home but I'll be shocked if he has to make a save. Pathetic.
