Might as well have given England a bye to the finals. Denmark was screwed. Good luck, Italy. You’ll need it.

No question mate, after they scored that free kick the tide very quickly turned.
And hey England is learning you have to get in the mud to win these sorts of games, they've seen countries like Italy,Portugal, and Argentina cost them wins because of it. Denmark would have done the same damn thing if they had the opportunity but they couldn't even get close to are penalty box to make it happen.Comment -
England deserved to win, but was telling my buddy earlier that day, I can see Denmark taking a lead, and then England gets some kind of phantom call at the end. Pretty much exactly what happened. You cannot call that penalty in a euro cup semi finals.
The penalty shot is one of the stupidest things ever invented. Penalties have ruined so many great matches in the world and euro cups, it's unbelievable why this hasn't been changed. You can barely touch a guy in the box nowadays and that's it, your whole tournament is over. It's not like calling a foul in the nba, or a flag in football, or a penalty in hockey.
It's actually sickening to watch how soft soccer players have become too. There was always flopping, yes, but this generation has taken it to an entirely new level.
I mean some of the flops in soccer, it's just a horrible look for these guys. There should be massive fines attached to flopping in soccer. I mean massive. Even suspensions. That's the only way you're going to take it out of the game.
That's why I love Messi so much. Guy rarely, if ever, flops. And when he gets clipped, he just gets right back up. Never rolls around on the grass screaming in pain. Never. Just gets up with a straight face and takes his free kick.Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
Penalty kick should be dead ball once shot is taken. No rebound should be allowed. That's the main problem I have with the pk. That was not a penalty obviously and it would not have been called if that was an epl game.Comment -
whenever u lose u think its riggedComment -
100% should be a dead ball, there's no point why it isn't, a rebound is almost guaranteed to be another shot attempt since everyone else has to maintain their required distance on the shot. I don't even like deciding a world cup winner on pks. From the semis onward, it should just be golden goal. Don't care how long it takes. Crowning someone a champion of the world on penalty kicks is awful. Because it changes the entire tactics of the game. No one wants to watch a team play all their men in the box defending a powerhouse for 30 minutes, just praying to get to PKs, and then win it on some fluke.Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
I think you can really tell the "fix is on" during penalty kicks. Go back and watch Columbia/Argentina. Columbia had 3 super weak attempts on penalty kicks that even I could've saved. I can understand missing high over the net to bury it up there, but to just keep kicking it low and to the same side over and over again, with next to no velocity? Yeah, that game was fixed. No doubt.Comment -
In NHL, or hockey, a penalty shot is ONLY given when a player is passed the defense and defense trips him from behind or hooks him, etc. where the player would've had a penalty shot anyway ie breakaway..........Probably should've been one called last night on Montreal...I think they were on a power play too. One could've argue for a penalty shot against TB on one play too.
Rarely called in NHL especially in a playoff game.
Soccer could apply penalty kicks ONLY under the same circumstance as NHL. Either that, or back that penalty kick way back like 10 more yards to make it less of a guarantee goal. I'm not sure what to do with soccer for a handball in the box, etc. Something has to be done but just PK after PK? No way. You're right. It ruins the game.Comment -
Best way to solve PK during regular time is that if the goal is saved and the ball is returned the kicker can not touch it again. It can only be touched by someone else. So Kane missed, Kasper saved it, Kane shouldn't be allowed to touch the ball again.Comment -
Who responsible for the match fixingComment -
They sure would. No extra time in COPA for one. Straight to penalties. If the money is on Argentina regulation, and on Columbia to advance? You're dam right they'll wait for penalties. If everyone took the lower price for England in regulation and not for them to advance, and everyone took the nice price for Denmark to advance.......DOT DOT DOT DOT DOTComment -
All soccer just like NBA is controlled by the Refs, you can't beat them they pick the winners

Usually true, but to be fair I had England winning this match, but in regulation time. I just think that penalty was scripted. The game wasn't rigged perse, but I think the ref was probably under pressure from the crowd and made a rookie mistake in a big moment. Like basically "ok this is basically sudden death now with the way this game is going, any stops I can pull out for England, I'm gonna have to."
Not to mention the draw England got. How is that even possible? How do you get to play in the easiest group stage we've maybe ever seen in euro, followed by the easiest side of the bracket we've maybe ever seen as well?

If England wins the trophy should come with an asterisk.Comment -
Same with cricket world cup back in 2019 England had so much luck in finalComment -
And apparently Mr kuipers going to be the refComment -
I wouldn't agree are group was easy at all, the Czechs and Croats are solid enough sides. England has just cleaned up their act ten fold since Euro 2016. We got rid of that loser Roy Hodgson and finally got are selves a talented coach that can get us places.Usually true, but to be fair I had England winning this match, but in regulation time.

I think we deserved something after Harry Kane was jipped on his penalty opportunity, the only reason people are complaining is because it's England if this was Italy we wouldn't be hearing much from the mob. And than you had Denmark which everyone was pitying because of Christian Eriksen.Comment
