Title: Ten games and still no penalties yet ! Post by: Karabiner on June 12, 2006, 06:27:43 PM I'm amazed, how long can it be ?
Maybe there won't be a penalty until the first penalty shootout. Title: Re: Ten games and still no penalties yet ! Post by: The Baron on June 12, 2006, 06:45:57 PM Yes very odd. Most international comps are full of red cards and pens.

Maybe there won't be a penalty until the first penalty shootout. good spot. I think when they do come you might see a higher proportion than usual missed due to the difficulty in controlling the ball's flight in this WC. Perhaps I am talking more rubbish than usual though. We'll see. Title: Re: Ten games and still no penalties yet ! Post by: Nem on June 12, 2006, 07:48:05 PM Italy vs Ghana will have a penalty. 8)

Post by: Acidmouse on June 13, 2006, 11:36:01 AM Overall the standard of ref's aint been too bad, but there was one or two pens thats should have been given for sure.
