Smack Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 All 4 are penalties as far as I can tell. Strange one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmaroon Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Sorry, but can't help myself: Thank goodness we live in a country where everything is pure and perfect and match officials are 100% above board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamboj Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Bizarre decision by Fifa to look at the officials for that one. Having watched the four penalties in the Estonia game, they all looked like good decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hughesie27 Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 The 3rd Pen looked out the box, but I'm happy to let that one go. The 4rth one though was not a pen in my eyes. Certainly not from the ref's angle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanks Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 None of them looked very dodgey. There must have been some strange betting patterns or something going on that has made them look at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly not from the ref's angle. The third one, he holds him outside the box but then clips him with his right foot just inside the box.

JamboAberdeen Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I remember a few years back, a game in india was found match-fixing as the game ended with 100+ - nil score line. Compared to that game, I don't see any suspicious thing in those game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambogaza Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 The first foul inside the box was ridiculous, the boy had plenty time to pull his leg away but left it there as if to concede a professional foul..not something you normally do in your box.

peter_hmfc Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Does anyone have a link to highlights of either of the games? The only videos I can find are just pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester™ Posted March 11, 2011 Author Share Posted March 11, 2011 Does anyone have a link to highlights of either of the games? The only videos I can find are just pictures. The link I posted to the BBC site has the video. If its not the link anymore, the video is on the site somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Treasurer Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I've seen similar incidents to all 4 given and not given but none of them look debatable enough to arouse suspicion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpy rebus Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 If FIFA think they're dodgy penalties, lets hope they never have a look at the ones that Rangers and Celtic get in the SPL Only the third one looked softish, but I've seen softer given.

CMc Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 The key sentence is the one about the tip off before the game. Buy the ref and his assistants, a defender on each team and pile it all on X penalties conceded in one match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trago13 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 I run a u15 team in Castle Donington. We got gubbed last week and conceded 4 penalties in the process. What was the refs name cause it could be the same one. To be fair to our ref, one of them was a pen. The other three - not a chance. Footballs rotten from the bottom up!!!
