:eriksenlol:i would and have reacted the very same way as Buffon and had the same outcome. its an emotional game and Italians sre emotional. Good on him, Real player dived although the ref made the correct decision as he saw it. IMO
I don’t think there can be too many arguments about the penalty decision. It wasn’t clear cut, but it was a clumsy challenge.
As for Buffon, I think he missed a trick by not cementing himself into football folklore status by simply knocking out Ronaldo once the red card was waved. I would have gotten a full body Buffon tattoo of Buffon if he’d done that.
It’s not as if Zidane would have much to say.
Splitting hairs mate.
100% pen mate. Can't blame the defender for going for it (may be earlier in the move for letting attacker get in front), can't blame the attacker (any player in the world is going to ground with that contact. Only twat on the pitch was Buffon, but maybe he wasn't a twat, maybe he thought it was best to make a scene, maybe it was his mind games it took something like 4 mins before penalty was taken, maybe sneezy is better at saving pens?
i feel the ref had to give it but for me very harsh. This another example of a player who should be going for goal (Hes only a few yards out) but chooses to dive.

look at Lucas legs, he's going down before contact. just for that I wouldn't call it. CUNT.

disagree about Buffon, hes only human and Italian. he may regret it but sometimes the emotion gets you by the the nuts and explodes your head.
I'm sorry but how can anyone deny its not a penalty?
If that's Kane and its not given to put us through to the CL semi final, you're in tears.
Sorry, for a moment think of Real - Spurs 0-3. Would you have said the same thing if the penalty had been against you in the 93rd minute? Benatia has anticipated Asensio: the attacker has dropped the referee has bitten the hook like a big fish eats shit.
I applauded CR7 in Turin for the acrobatic goal but today he was an actor. Next year he will play with Emma Watson instead of Benzema.
It's a stonewall penalty.
It's a penalty.
If we were 0:3 like Madrid, I couldn't ask for pen after all because of shame. No-one would care if he didn't call it. I'm just saying, he was going down with any small contact.
God, I hate them.
He's a disgrace. At least when Zizou lost the plot in his last game he enhanced his legend. Buffon just looked like a whining little pussy trying to bully a referee who merely made the correct and courageous decision.
Buffon is nothing more than that self-important bullying tosser now. Nothing more. His achievements are all ashes in the pit of this burning embarrassment. What a fool.
If he is a man he will hang up his gloves and apologise to the referee, his colleagues, the supporters, and his family.
At least Buffon went out big like his coach.
I know real get a lot of dodgy decisions but I don't think there can be any debate about that pen. Benatia had that coming anyway the dirty cunt. Should have been sent off against us for persistent fouling.
Got no love for either team so was just happy to see some amazing drama.
