There's no way to get your hand out of the way of that, would have been ridiculously harsh to give it, no way it was deliberate.

Didn't the ref behind the goal-line have a clear view of that? Is he even allowed to communicate with the ref?

You can only give penalties for deliberate handball control. That wasn't, lol.

LOL, the referee is blind or so - glad it wasn't a penalty, that would have locked-down the game.

Really, really hope Italy will score, but it seems that they are a bit too eager and will eat a goal sooner or later...

That's the natural position when you're jumping. Why do you think there are so many elbows?

Italy is playing really great. But Spain are just deadly and can score from the smallest of mistakes made.

I'm really impressed by Italy. They deserved at least one goal that half. Haven't seen a team stand up like this against Spain since... Italy in the group stages =)

I really enjoy the fact that Italy's midfield and defence are confident enough to pass their way out of the Spanish pressure. This is probably the best game I've seen, quality wise, thus far in Euro 2012. Both teams deserve 100% to be where they are and are playing great football.


I feel portugal did a much much better job to reduce the passing midfield than italy.


Sure, in the first half and beginning of the second half of their match I absolutely agree with you. But the problem in my opinion with that game was Portugals complete inability to produce quality chances (as with any team who have closed down Spain's midfield, they practically created nothing worthwhile offensively).

The difference when compared to Italy's play, is that Italy is actually keeping possession of the ball, Passing their way calmly out of situations. Their players also have great movement without the ball when they are on the offensive.

Italy would probably have done an equally good job of closing down Spain hadn't that first goal been scored so early. But now that they're behind, they have to attack. And I must say I'm impressed by the quality with which they're doing it. No team thus far in the tournament have created this much offensively, or had such such an amount of consecutive passes within the team against Spain.

I'm impressed because they're obviously forced into playing the game the way Spain likes it. But they're doing it really well. Anyway, I'm back to watching the game.

He didn't have the hand against the body, so I think it's a clear penalty.

how do you usually jump? with your hands down? cause usually when I jump my hands come up for better stability/power

It still blocked a shot on goal. If the ricochet onto the hand in the germany game was a pen, how is this not? The scoreline, I guess. Spain should be 3 up.

Should have been Cassano getting the ball there. He would have assisted Balotelli instead of shooting. ; _ ; Which is easy to say after he shot and missed, of course.

That was a bullshit penalty as well. It was probably given out of pity for Germany. No, it should not have been a penalty. Go read the rules.
