Sigh. What a way to go.
I don't think it was a dive, but whether it was a penalty or not... well, I'm not really sure.
To be fair, we should never have allowed it to come to that. We failed to take sufficient advantage of being a man up and seemed to be lacking the killer punch.
Oh well. Roll on Italy.

I thought the penalty call was totally legitimate and well earned. It's an unfortunate way to end a match, but although the match wasn't particularly well refereed, that was a good call in my book. He clearly was contacted and taken down during a good opportunity. I can understand if someone were to argue that he ran into the challenge, but I still think it was deserved.

Another shocking ref decision. Another game ruined.
Maybe the coin toss at the start of the game should decide the winner. Save all that effort of running around the pitch.

Seriously, this tournament is a joke with no credibility.
