Euro 2016 Group E - Belgium, Ireland, Italy, Sweden

I thought Clattenburg had a really good game, kept the game going and just told players to get up. Really good game to watch as a neutral
 
Well done Italy and Conte... Great game and quite the upset. Won't have done Wilmots any good both losing out on points and being showed up as so clearly inferior as a coach.

there is 22 other guys at the tournament with the same problem

Chelsea are going to be a very different animal next season
 
Agreed. Just when they start to win me over with good play, they go back to their usual cynical, cheating selves.

Were they particularly cheating?

I get the cynical comment, but if Dier or Alli did the same thing I'm sure England fans would welcome it. Kane still gets credit for his time wasting against United a couple of years back. I would trust Vertonghen and Alderweireld to be just as cynical as the Italians had the roles been reversed.

it would have been a 10/10 performance had one of them spat on themselves afterwards
 
Anyone else sick of this type of tactical fouling?

I know its the smart thing to do. Surely the rules need to be changed so that its no longer the smart thing to do. It deserves more than a yellow card.

Agreed. I remember it happening quite a few times with us this season. In one match especially, I believe against Chelsea (at home), it happened way too many times. Very annoying.

That's ok with a yellow, but there have been situations that warranted 2 or 3 yellows. In one of the first games there was a similar situation; First he grabs the shorts (yellow card offence), looses the grip, and then just chops down the player from behind (another yellow, borderline red), and then finishing off the move by kicking the ball high into the stands (third yellow), and only gets a yellow. He should be off imo.
