i dont think it was intentional
Can you give me one good reason for him to have his arm straight up like that?

It doesn't have to be intentional. His arm wasn't in a natural position and he blocked a fricking shot. It's hard to think of a more obvious penalty than that

Nah that's what they want you to do. I try to use a soft press to force them into a non dangerous area of the field where you can press hard. Situational pressing, like what Mexico did to kill Germany.





well thats kind of implied you can't do it all match

you have pick and choose your periods of the match to do it

like i said before also be sure to lay the tackles hard and fast when you do.

1-0 and people on here acting like it's 4-0
Meh. 1-0 on Spain with such a less talented side is often fatal. The Tiki Taka eventually forces presses and lack of shape composure and it quickly becomes 3-0. This match was what Spain wanted until that frick-up.

called how Russia would score

set piece or playing the ball in the box and knocking it down

they knocked it down right into Pique's arm

Regardless of what happened in the other game, that's a handball.


Well you could have just quoted my whole post. I like that you conveniently left out where I said it was a penalty.

Disagree. The plays are not the same.


Neither arm was in a natural position and both impacted the ball.

They are both handballs. Nigeria got screwed.

Your saying "press the shite out of them" implies that you're pressing high and hard and I think that's a bad idea.

But the two plays are also completely different.

Again disagree. The Argentina defenders arm was natural. Piques clearly wasn't.

When you jump you don't have to jump like a toothpick. But you cant point them straight to the sky either like pique did.

They are simply not the same situation.

For a neutral position, Spain are boring as hell.

Anyone saying press the shite outta them has never played an actual game & tried to do that to a ball possessive team. You will crumble in no time. Idc how good or fit you are. I watched Barca beat Madrid 5-0 & 6-2 with that "press the shite outta them" tactic a few years ago.

No team can press anyone for 90mins

you have to pick periods of the match to do it

Yeah, if Pique's arm was below his shoulder, that probably isn't a penalty.

Pique intentionally stuck his arm up higher after the ball passed over his head. Clear penalty. Could have been sent off.

When Pique gets home, he can be consoled by this:
