They need to give the Keeper more flexibility. The kicker can fake, shuffle step etc... while the keeper just has to basically stay still (or not move off the goaline)

they never call the keeper off his line. look at the Croatia-Denmark 6 saves on Sunday.

Let them claim it. If the players keep control themselves the ref cannot lose it.

The one thing this England team are doing really well IMO is pressuring the ball high up the pitch.

Kane and the other attackers are putting pressure on the defenders to have to play the ball quickly and are not letting the other team set up in attack.

like how early, they will charge the shooter

whatever the rule is, they will do a little more so leave it as is.

soccer players always look for an edge.

And another stoppage time goal in this world cup.

How very English...Tripper probably needs to do better on the line.

Was expecting a lot more than five minutes extra time.
Penalty took at least four but I guess the ref just wants to get out of there.

Broken timing rules! even the commentator is like "NO idea how much stoppage time now. They have us all guessing!"

Well how about you stop the effing clock after a goal or injury!

Maybe allow the keeper to stay a few yards in front of the line?
