Don't get me wrong, I'm not at all unhappy England has gone through (as a long suffering Dutchman, I can identify with what the English go through) but seriously, how was that not called a goal?

You have a linesman standing right there who's sole purpose is to stare intently at that goal line all game and watch for exactly what transpired today, and he still missed it.

If this doesn't soundly prove that it's time for the dinosaurs running EUFA and FIFA to pull their collective heads out of their arses and go to video replay in instances like this, I don't know what will. Ridiculous.
