In a recent filter interview, Karim Benzema opened up... about his time playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid and he didn’t hold back. Benzema claimed Ronaldo was extremely selfish on the pitch, always wanting to take every set piece: “Ronaldo wanted everything corners, free kicks, penalties… everything. If he didn’t score in a match, he wouldn’t talk to anyone in the dressing room. That’s just how he was. I still remember one game where I had already scored two goals. I got fouled inside the box and it was a clear penalty my chance for the first hat-trick of my career. The coach told me to take the penalty, but Cristiano came and took the ball from me. He took the shot instead. That’s the kind of teammate he was. When Cristiano left for Juventus, that’s when I started shining. I finally had the freedom to express myself and become the player I always knew I could be.”show more

The discourse around the Eze penalty last night is... fascinating. If nothing else it provides Arteta with an excuse as to how his team has been hard done by and robbed. He loves excuses. It’s a fascinating situation because I actually think the right outcome was reached albeit through the wrong process. Once given on the field under the current rules it shouldn't have been overturned. For that Arsenal can feel aggrieved. Don't forget Arsenal were the beneficiaries of an incredibly soft penalty in Leverkusen. It wasn’t overturned. I find the attached video interesting because it clearly shows how minimal the contact is. The defender doesn’t pin Ezes foot to the ground. Doesn’t smash into it. It brushes down the side of it. It’s where the still pictures of it were wildly misleading. Are we really saying that contact such as that is worthy of a penalty? What’s clear in the video is that Eze has absolutely made the most of the slight contact. I love the straight left leg. A very natural position. It’s a brilliant dive and normally it would have been rewarded. By saying that is a stone wall penalty all we are doing is encouraging such theatrics and cheating. Whenever you hear the words “that was clever” by a commentator they are intimating the player has cheated/made the most of it. We complain about refs all the time but what chance do they have when players are doing stuff like this. Until players are punished properly there is no disincentive for players to keep doing this stuff. I also find it fascinating when you have a foot brushed like this. When you compare it to all the holding/pushing/grappling at other times. Sometimes a contact sport and others not. Is this really what football has become?show more

This market on Polymarket caught my attention. Only 5... matches have gone to penalties at this World Cup, and there are just 2 games left. Yet the market is still pricing a 32% chance that we'll see at least one more penalty shootout. I think a lot of that comes from the 2022 World Cup final. That game is still fresh in everyone's memory. Personally, I don't think either of the remaining matches goes that far. I'm leaning NO here.show more
