Seriously? How do you leave a guy completely on his own in the middle of the small area for so long?
 
Oh lawd, looks like another trashing

Defense, Brazil, have you heard of it?
 
Brazil can't play football with this team. They barely can break and go through the defense of the opponent. They depend on corners and long passes from the corner side. Where are these Ronaldinho-Ronaldo tricky passes and defense breaking?

aaaah, it's two now. Good job, David Luiz. Blind head to the ball in the penalty area. What a joke this man is.

It's gone, it was a conscious decision to move in that direction. There's a famous Pep Guardiola quote from when Barcelona thrashed Santos in the World Club finals IIRC that talks about this, something like "we won because we played the way my grandfather told me Brasil used to."

Problem is, there's no quick fix to bring it back.
 
clear pen. the brutal lack of knowledge of the rules is baffling around here.

in a 1 on 1 situation, the pen is given where the player falls, not where he's pushed. it's called a "continuation foul".

holy shit, you people DO watch football only every 4 years, don't you?

Jesus, are you trolling or what?

The only way that would apply is if the foul continues into the box, which it clearly didn't. Otherwise the ball is placed where the foul happened first.

How much football do you watch again?
 
Well, this makes me feel somewhat better about playing against Germany tomorrow.

The same team that didn't score against us in 90 minutes scored twice already against Brazil.
 
I am continually stunned by the program that Robben is on, he has actually gained pace over time. A truly excellent program, will not be his last world cup.
 
Lets not feel sorry for PSG, a financially doped team with no history, funded by oil money with the help of a corrupt UEFA administration.. see also man city, chelsea and monaco
 
Not red, and not penalty.

"The last man" theory doesn't exist in the rules. Besides, the last man was the goalkeeper.
Last man is usually a phrase to help show it would be a clear goalscoring opportunity.

So if it was the last defender, having passed that defender the attacker would then be in a one-on-one scenario with the keeper, thus having a clear goalscoring opportunity.

If there are more defenders before he reaches the one-on-one scenario a goalscoring opportunity may not arise, and so discretion is needed.
 
Brazil have looked very average for a long time. They've just been found out here. It's a shame it happened at their world cup though.

So, found an exact quote:

Serious Foul Play

Disciplinary sanctions:
send the player off

Restart of play:
*direct free kick from the position where the offence occurred*

*penalty kick
(if the offence occurred inside the offender’s penalty area)
