- Finally, I’m not sure I see where the furious debate over the penalty has come from. Any calls of a dive are unfounded due to Krishna’s complete lack of calls for the penalty, while the 17-year old defender (making me feel old) has no complaints. What looked like an innocent ankle-tap is still worthy of a penalty.
Stuff is the only site talking up the penalty. Not the players, not the coaches, not the commentators, no other media is complaining about it. Which leaves Jeff Vader, Vukovich making a joke and Stuff. All the others focused on how well the Nix were doing or the win. Except the website which services the club's home city. And then they run articles complaining about attendance.
