Its a pen for me. Cavani has got his body between he defender and the ball.The defender takes the player before he get the ball.

Glad they got knocked out though lol.

If it was the other way round and the defender stuck his leg out in front of Cavani it would be a penalty, but it was Cavani who brought the defender down IMO

I know technically it is. Or at least is so often given. But they really need to look at that I think.

And it's a very fair point. The defender does the exact same thing to Cavani and it's a pen. Cavani does that to a defender, I can't see how that can be a penalty too.

Are we talking about the same incident? I didnt see the match but this is the pen decision I saw.

I always smile when I watch Shaquiri as I remember he came on when we played Stoke in the cup - he was in somebody’s pocket and made no impact and then Hughes was sacked in the morning

Picked well with Switzerland Serbia
I've done well this week with my choices. On the whole I would say I have chosen the less high profile game on show. Usually the other game has had more at stake than the main channel one.

And like the game tonight, this one is more evenly matched.

Brazil are a tad sloppy in possession, I must say; Cameroon have had a few chances to nick a lead, but are lacking in that final third.

Am I going mad? Infantino was shown in the crowd at the Brazil game.

Now watching the Switzerland game and they've zoomed into him sitting in the crowd.

I'm giving away the fact I'm a Freeview pleb but I am 100% sure the Standard Def signal on ITV 4 is significantly worse than it was in the pre HD era. Feel like I have cataracts.

Bloody joke ITV don't have a second HD channel on free to air
I often think this myself, I don’t recall analogue being as crap as this; the picture is pixelated as heck.

ITV's player is just shit. Shame they have the England game!

He’s probably omnipresent, it’s a quality that Sepp Blatter lacked.

Definitely worse than it was. Feel like SD BBC is marginally better.

Just had a read, the SD signal they use is low bitrate and definition, looks worse on fast moving content like sports.

Apparently they sold off the extra wavelength the had used for HD Freeview channels to 5G
