That last challenge which brought the free kick - his foot was taken, the lad was lucky to stay on the pitch.

EC, they fall over in a light breeze these days.

I just don't like Robben's 'gamesmanship'

Yes, but Robben  overdramatised his fall and tried to make it look like he was in the box

Disagree, you can tell the difference between a faked fall and a real one. That was real. Robben suffers from the same problem a number of players do, that once you have a reputation for diving it's assumed every time you go to ground that your faking it.

 

You have to bear in mind Robben is a powerful runner and when he goes down he is carrying a lot of momentum.

I'm in a bad bit, Rog. We have the sea in front and mountains behind. We've been flooded about 3 times in recent yrs.... we have a supply of sandbags just in case. This is unexpected though. I hope it eases off before i head to bed.

As I said previously....I'm in two minds with this one   

 

With me, what's gone is gone if it's way in the past

Yes, because by and large they produce decent sides and they are European. But anyone can support any country, it's entirely up to them.

 

If it were the French or Italians then maybe I would support the CR's.
