I reckon it was a piss poor penalty.....

Poor penalty though. Nerves def got to Modric on that one.

The ref should be able to award a goal in a scenario like that or an undefended penalty.
Didn't Suarez or someone punch one off the line in the last World Cup and similarly stop a certain goal (not just an 'opportunity').

Agree. Silly rule. Might as well just commit the foul, give a pen away and hope for the best.
It's actually a good rule. The ref just needs to determine that it's a genuine attempt to win the ball... In this instance I don't think it was, defender knew he was getting the legs and the referee got that wrong I think.

You could see this was going to go to penalties from about the 20th minute
Schmeichel is going to save a couple more yet

Yes he did and got a Red Card and a penalty was awarded which is what the law says happens in that situation

He's not allowed to do that Kasper in the same way you're not allowed a yard off your line.........

Modric got away with that pen. That was poor.
