Rhino Posted June 15, 2014 Author Share Posted June 15, 2014 I've not got the sound on (as I'm watching on iPad on the couch) so I don't know who he players are but Switzerland have looked shambollocks down the right. The full back bombing on like he's Dani Alves, but without any of the defensive positioning or team possession required to fill that role effectively, and the guy occasionally in front of him thinking he's Messi! They look really naive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what's the point of the spray around the ball if you're allowed to move it 30cm to the left or right? Player in wall was going crazy and rightly so.

Player in wall was going crazy and rightly so. I think the point is more that it's not put more closely to the goal, which disadvantages the opponent. I think that is why the officials think left and right are acceptable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
