I know that's totally a foul and deservedly, but man penalty shots are just such an insane reward.

Has to be or else it would be a foul fest in the box.

Yeah, no arguments about that penalty, he got hauled down.

Credit to Goetze though, he tried to fight through all the way to trying to take a final swing at the ball instead of going down.

Perriera made that way too easy to call.

Goetze looked like he was going down to draw the penalty no matter what and Perriera grabbing it him like that made it an easy call for the ref. Although that ball should have been cleared before it got to that point.

What I don't like is that anyone on the team can take the shot. Unless it's a special circumstance (hand ball or player is injured) I think whoever the foul was committed against, should be the one taking it.

There's a place for them and I understand why they happen, but in general, Im not the biggest fan of them either. They feel a little cheap.

Goetze is one of the few Germans who will run at defenders and try to beat them one on one. It's good to see

Portugals center forwards have been awful for as long as I remember

I brought my schweinsteiger jersey to work and left the Götze at home. Right now I'm watching it on my laptop and doing no work

Germans need to close down space faster around their area. Nani took advatange of the space he was given

I don't know why they don't move it back 3 yards. I'd guess that it wasn't nearly as automatic whenever it was that they settled on 12 years.

When you watched EPL matches they dont seem so automatic.

Outside of Ronaldo this Portugal team is very average.

As expected Germany is top class.
