'Great save'

Croatia 1-1 Denmark

Pat Nevin

Former Chelsea winger on BBC Radio 5 live

It's a great save by Schmeichel and it shouldn't have been a red card for Zanka because he made an attempt to win the ball. The referee got it right.

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

and gotta love how they dont even bother reviewing the PK when it clearly shows Schemich taking a full step forward

[Captain Ron 12874]

Found the rule:

Quote

 

The Laws of the Game 2016-2017 are aimed to change the “triple punishment” rule. Triple as in: (1) red card, (2) penalty kick opponents and (3) suspension. Because it’s outside the box, there will be no penalty kick, so no triple punishment.

The rule basically means – full details below – that if a player is challenging an opponent for the ball in the penalty area and he fouls a player in goal-scoring position, the offender only gets a yellow and not a red card.

 

Basically in the box the DOGSO is only a yellow to not result in a triple punishment.

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

wow, I guess I need to re-read the rules, because that was a redcard in my day, every single time. 

[Planet Houston 4930]

Great takedown to give them a chance, great save. Still not sure I understand the no red card rule, that’s ridiculous. 

[Buzzrock 14918]

I had forgotten myself.  They got rid of the triple jeopardy (PK, red, suspension).
So if it's last man outside the box, it's a straight red.  In the box, PK.

Ahhhh. Taparep to you sir.

[Jive Turkey 12594]

Fuck. If/when Croatia loses, they will take this to their fucking graves. 

[Captain Ron 12874]

It was only changed maybe 3 years ago because it is such a back breaker for teams in some circumstances.

This isn't the same as the Colombia opener. That handball is always a red card.

[GabrielsHorn 2183]

It should be a yellow if the defender is trying to play the ball, but I disagree with the ref there. He was coming through the back of the player, it should be a red.

especially since it was an open net at that point, and literally a tap on the ball = goal, and the takedown was from behind

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

kinda shocked Denmark is having their big dog shoot first

[Firemans4Horn 18046]

So would a Luis Suarez handball on the line be a yellow card now? Because that play was pretty much the exact same. 

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

SAVED!!!!

[TexArcher 37774]

Whoa!!!

[mdmost 43001]

Keepers are balling. 

[Firemans4Horn 18046]

Ugly 

[Buzzrock 14918]

So Spursy...

[mdmost 43001]

Modric needs to get some redemption. 

[Zepol87 9185]

Damn

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

SAVED!!!!!

[Michael Knight 12977]

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

[elfenix 34231]

[TexArcher 37774]

Schmeichel, holy shit.

[mdmost 43001]

He went full body on that save. 

[Captain Ron 12874]

The last 3 PKs have been saved.

[Firemans4Horn 18046]

Turrible 

[TexArcher 37774]

This World Cup fucks ALL the 10s.

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

that one is in. 

[GabrielsHorn 2183]

That’s a great penalty. Too many of these are way too low

[Captain Ron 12874]

And there we have a make.

[Homercles 10205]

Denmark strikes first.

[Zepol87 9185]

That's how it's done

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

talk about mega pressure on the Croat

[Buzzrock 14918]

Damn that was aggressive

[GabrielsHorn 2183]

Shemeichel can’t complain when he’s literally coming off his line every shot. 

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

Schmeichel whining - he never stopped moving and you went WAAAAYYYY off your line int he overtime block 

[Anastasis 23469]

Awesome.

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

goal again-   

[Captain Ron 12874]

Now they are going with the slow rollers.

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

man these balls are all low-   if the keepers guess correctly they will stop them 

[HenryJames 66043]

Modric better make this.

[A-Tex Devil 2446]

I like Schmechel but he bitches a lot for a guy that comes off the line early every time. 

Edited July 1, 2018 by A-Tex Devil

[AUS-97HORN 11757]

wow that ALMOST was stopped again

[Captain Ron 12874]

Schmechel almost got that one.

Edited July 1, 2018 by Captain Ron

[Anastasis 23469]

Almost got his feet on it.

[Zepol87 9185]

That was fucking close

[AUS-97HORN 11757]
