Euro 2020 (2021)

Even Trabzonspor have a better keeper than us.

Seriously though, anyone know if this guy is always this good, or if it is one of those games?

The commentator said Trabzon ask for 30m. and that Tottenham is interested I think...

Clear pen. Fits "the player's hand or arm contacts the ball in an 'unnatural' position" logic.

This is a penalty imo. Really bad decision. There is no sliding no nothing. The defender has to be careful there and keep his hands close to the body.

The tourney is being played with the new handball rules for the next season. I haven't looked into what those rules are but from what I've heard being in a natural action = no pen

That's highly interpretative. Defenders can now approach the ball with their hands stretched out as if they play goalkeeper. Hand to ball, no pen. Stupid.

If under the new rule this is not a pen, it's an absolute joke.

When you can approach the ball with your hands in the right position as not to block a cross with them (i.e. you're not sliding or doing an action where you use your hands to balance yourself and have little control), and you decide not to, it should be interpreted as intent to extend the area of your body using your hands.

It's almost impossible to cross now if defenders are allowed to block the cross with their hands.

Interesting thanks. Renewed until 2024 so the club definitely value him very highly.

FWIW I think that should have been called

Demiral has Barca DNA.

Deserved goal. No more playing for the draw for Turkey. Got to attack now.

 

[ThwiX]

Already a much more entertaining game after that goal.

True, that's the downside of these Euro/World Cup. Most of the time playing draw is pretty good for you.

Annoying.

 

[ThwiX]

Another goal for Italy. Total domination now.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

Game over. Turkey very mediocre.

Yeah, so much for them being a surprise package. They're shite

That s all folks.
