If that was a pk against CIV then this most definitely was. Robben is a beast and the most fearful forward at this wc, no defender in the world can stop him one on one. Those blaming Marquezsshould remember what he did to the Spanish defense. He is my player of the tournament so far and today he put Holland on his back and carried them to victory. There are very few players in the world who have that ability, almost every time he touched the ball he was dangerous.

The onus is not on Robben to avoid contact or not to take advantage of it, ONCE THE DEFENDER ENGAGES THROUGH A TACKLE.
I'm not disgusted at Robben; I am disgusted at the stupidity of a player of Marquez's experience!
quick question:
If Marquez had not made that tackle do u think a PK would've been awarded?

Mexicans can hold their heads high in defeat.
One thing we can ALL agree on is that like Bo, Mexico knows football.
Yes, Hererra ultimately blinked. He succumbed psychologically. He just couldn't believe that Mexico could maintain enough initiative and went bunker. That Dos Santos sub especially was infuriating.
I also acknowledge that Mexico happened to get perhaps 1 of the 2 strongest teams in this tournament. In spite of what seems to me that false penalty at the end, I congratulate Holland. They were cool, disciplined, and patiently took their opportunities.
I actually said at the start that the Dutch would lay back and then press in the final 20 minutes...conserving their energy and trying to tire Mexico...which is how it panned out.
BTW: did you think that was a penalty at the end? I still don't.

I give kudos the beast that is Robben.
But on that penalty, he was not a beast, but a cheating ballerina.

You are just shedding Concacaf tears, your dream of 3 teams in the final 8 just got dashed. That was a clip and a foul plus the ref knew he had missed a clear pk on Robben in the first half, how many breaks should Concacaf have in this wc, CIV didn't get a break.mate wrote:African Star wrote:If that was a pk against CIV then this most definitely was.

Re: Mexico 1 vs Holland 0........Mexico might upset the Oran
Hererra did a good job. I can't agree with people blaming his subs. Dos Santos was subbed off in the last game and Mexico went on to score 3 goals. Hererra still brought on Aquino, Mexicans darling, and he did a great job keeping the dutch defence back. What killed Mexico is not the overlapping of Dutch defense because they couldn't afford to do that as Aquino kept them honest, what killed them was the corner kicks. Dutch were killing them over and over again!!mate wrote:kolinzo wrote:I agree that Mexico knows football.

Anyway, I also told this board before the WC started that Netherlands is not a TRUE #15 -it is deceiving- and somebody told me I was yarning opaks. I also told people who are holding on to "weather factor" as the reason why many European teams have exited this tournament and why the AMericas are winning that they were mistaking. It isn't. A team that does its homework the correct way will always pass.
Was that a penalty? It was a fifty fifty call. It could have gone the way of Mexico and not for Netherlands. You can't blame the ref on this one. Marquez of all people should have stood his ground. Fifty fifty call.

We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

You are just a 'normal' football 'viewer' ...............Just spurting(analysing ) it like any TV viewer.
So it was the 'overlapping and corner kicks' that killed Mexico .....................like Cicob said somewhere.............'you are talking about the effects while forgetting what caused it'.
But then you are a ................'normal' football viewer

It was a penalty, Marquez made a reckless challenge and there was contact. Robben should have received a booking for simulation, but it was a penalty.

I pray so my brother. We just need to do the simple things, such as not being selfish when a team mate is better positioned, think quickly, no stupid fouls near or inside the box, unforced errors/give-away and communication (GK and defence especially).Chief Ogbunigwe wrote:jubilating!GREENWHITEGREEN wrote:By this time on Monday Nigeria would be...

Now can u pls answer my question...
But if you must insist, ....indirect freekicks (not PKs) can be given in the box for certain fouls.

Yes. I don't believe there is rule against that.
