The whole penalty rule needs reviewed and remade.

You've got utter nonsense like Griezmann and last night's farce being given, and yet Mitrovic got a double rugby tackle that was dutifully ignored.

Clarify the rule once and for all; is tickling someone's shin a penalty? Are you allowed to manhandle someone in the box as long as three of your fellow defenders are doing it in synchronicity? 

Personally for so-called contact, no penalty unless you clearly impede the player or divert his line of travel without playing the ball.

Hands on a player on a dead ball which stops him making a natural movement towards the ball - penalty every time.

Maradona taken to hospital. There’s videos of him looking absolutely fucked. 

Not surprised - he's been an appalling spectacle this week - even worse than his national team.

That said - sincerely hope he pulls through.

So far the top two in every group have been the two top in terms of average wages in that group...

There's going to be a couple of anomalies in the bottom half, but it makes sense, better players tend to earn more.

Have always hated him with a passion - a dangerous wee corrupt fly junky man 

No doubting his ability but absolutely no magnanimity - a million miles away off the park from the likes of Pele 

Hope he pulls through and gets some help but it's not as if he has had plenty chances before to change

Anyway - expect a professional performance by the Germans tomorrow with plenty corners, free kicks and high balls into the box - should blow S Korea away

Would not be surprised if Brazil exit the tournament at night
