Silva could have let Robben go and avoid further problems except for going down 0-1 early, but you know what reflexes a defender has on the pitch. |

If it's inside the penalty zone, the 'last man' rule is overridden?
I am not that versed in such ruling details. But still this does not seem like a choice the ref is to make. It's either inside, or it isn't. Weird decission~ |

And yes, penalty and red card coexist, one doesn't exclude the other. There have been some complaints asking to turn the red into yellow when a foul generates a penalty but so far rules haven't changed in that regard.

Just tune in to the end of half time, can't say i'm surprised by the scoreline. The team is going on a huge slump in team psychology after their disastrous result in the semi and it's going to be awhile before they can recover (need a new coach and a new team composition)

The penalty decision was strange indeed, but it says how the ref was not keen to send the player off at all despite how blatant the foul was. So he took the escape door in a certain way. |
