Also shouldn't every Senegalese player who walked off the field of play without permission have had a booking?

 

[Shannerz]

No serious competition allows that and now senegal will go on to win probably , crazy

You say 'allows', but if a team behaves like that, what can you do?

Senegal are going to be in big trouble after this. Some sort of ban, surely. Doesn't matter how aggrieved you feel, you can't behave like that.

Refusing to play should mean you forfeit the match imo

Yeah. Think this is one of the only circumstances where that rule is actually relevant.

Youd argue they forfeit the match leaving the field of play because they sulked during regulation time

Isnt there a rule where 1 player must stay on the pitch otherwise the other team can kick off when a goals scored?

Could something like that happen

 

[Johnnythespider]

I think the ref could have allowed the penalty to be taken with the other team of the pitch and he'd still have missed

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Full time is going to be WILD whatever happens next

 

[skybluecam]

Thought Mbaye was about to score goal of the tournament there

 

[David O'Day]

keeper could have ran from the dr3ssing room and still got o to before it crossed the line

 

[Deleted member 7943]

Will anybody ever respect senegal as legitimate winners here ?

 

[Shannerz]

Yeah, that's probably fair.

It's unprecedented, though. Never seen anything like it.

 

[SBT]

Why do people insist that missed panenkas are worse than any other missed penalty?

 

[skybluecam]

The confetti cannons going off at the fanzone is killing me

 

[Shannerz]

No.

 

[Deleted member 7943]

Because its a deliberate act of foolishness

 

[Mercian In Anglia]

Just made an awful decision, just like that Leicester player against Cardiff.

Oh, go on then *edit, that wasn't the one you were on about as it? still funny as fuck though, leaving it up*



here it is

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

It'll have happened in club football more often than we think probably, but this will be the highest profile example for a very long time.

Isn’t it just someone trying to predict where the keeper will dive like most penalties do?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

It's a bit more high risk because there's minimal power on the shot.

 

[skybluecam]

If a keeper stays central for a panenka he will almost certainly save it

If you put some power on a pen then even if the keeper guesses right you still have a chance of scoring

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

How has he missed?!

 

[Deleted member 7943]

Its cocky behaviour isnt it really , power if its down the middle

 

[Deleted member 7943]

Unreal

 

[skybluecam]

what on earth is this game

 

[thekidfromstrettoncamp]

Someone shining lasers now and a big miss it's all happening again.

 

[David O'Day]

Unreal

keeper hits on to the players foot just as he is shooting doesn't he?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Unreal

This is a game that'll enter football folklore, absolutely bonkers

 

[skybluecam]

Will Morocco protest the result given all the shenanigans?

Isn’t the (lack of) pace on the ball a deliberate attempt to stop the keeper from saving it mid-dive? It’s not inherently more or less likely to go in if you hit it hard and the keeper stays dead central, surely?

Mendy went to go down amd had time to reorganise and adjust to save because of the poor power ..

It was cocky hence why its universally agreed his miss made him look a tit

This, as it allows the keeper a chance to correct his actions and still save the pen. There's a reason you don't see it as much as more conventional penalties.

 

[Shannerz]

The ref just gives a free kick whenever anyone falls over.
