    Honestly not sure. Can see why it was given but I wouldn't given have given it as I wouldn't have been 100% sure.

    Shocking. France have had every decision in every game I've watched. Blatant bias in favour of the home side. Two or three blatant fouls in and around the area by France at the other end ignored. I was going to post earlier that the red would give this to France and he is trying his best. Awful .

    The perfect example of why the word "deliberate" needs to be removed from the law. How can a ref decide that is deliberate or not and more importantly, what is the relevance of that.

    The ref saw it and have it, so I can accept that.

    Yes it seems harsh but he did have his hand up.

    Penalty for me. He jumped in with his arm. You're not telling me he Schweinsteiger with all his experience didn't know what he was doing there

    Referee has made a cracking decision based on the view he had. Schweinsteiger does handball it.

    Forget the referee evening this one up. He will continue to ignore French fouls and keep penalising every little thing the Germans do.

    That's spending time with an English club. He's been infected with indecision. ;)

    Germany have been great to watch, and I'm still hoping they win. But was a penalty for me.

    Germany dont have a striker so are struggling to score. Plenty of passing/possession, no end product.

    Going to be an interesting 2nd half anyway. Definitely rooting for Germany after that injustice (imo).

    The comments on the handball are hilarious. It wasn't a dreadful decision and it wasn't a stonewall pen as some are implying. It could have gone one way or the other. I wouldn't have given it but that's just my opinion,

    Bearing in mind that a few are saying that France are getting every decision. Has it been mentioned that the referee is Italian and who beat Italy this time round.? ;)
