In EPL they often don’t often call it foul. In my opinion it is bad for game. That’s why you often see so many players crowding the small box before a corner or free kick in English soccer games. Referees have to stop the game to separate them before corner or free kick.

Germany got hosed in regulation Terrific injustice. - Hensou - 11:36pm 6/29/26 (14) [View All]
- Bad call. The goalie initiated then threw himself on the ground. [NT] - LanceManion - 1:31pm 6/30/26
  - The goalie’s statue in the box is special. You need to treat the box as goalie’s home. Other players - Eli - 4:22pm 6/30/26
- German fans watching penalty shootout. [NT] [LINK] - conorlarkin - 1:31am 6/30/26
- No. It’s a good call exactly because Paraguay goalie initiated contact. It showed and proved - Eli - 1:18am 6/30/26
  - False. Goalie cannot initiate contact then dive. - Hensou - 1:23am 6/30/26
    - A bit more about this. Quite often attacking team in the box focus on goalie, not the ball. They - Eli - 2:06am 6/30/26
    - No. You can’t block goalie from attempting to touch the ball. That’s the rule applied to the box - Eli - 1:33am 6/30/26
      - They got it wrong. [NT] [LINK] - Hensou - 10:28am 6/30/26

        That is utterly illogical. - Hensou - 5:37pm 6/30/26
- A debatable foul, but not an injustice. - conorlarkin - 11:47pm 6/29/26
  - Would have been an injustice…if Germany was in my final 8… [NT] - TakethetrainKnute - 2:09am 6/30/26
  - The goalie clearly initiated the contact then dived. - Hensou - 12:34am 6/30/26
