    No. If every team were robbed of a CLEAR PENALTY like they did to Ghana, football wouldn't exist. Ghana WAS DENIED A CLEAR PENALTY. That is what FIFA needs to investigate.
    Low block tactics has been used by many teams to win ...

    Teams who are so befuddled by their opponents tactics they concede two penalties and a red card denied them should be banned indefinitely.

    Excellent response, bro .if every country is to recruit " foreign Mercenaries" like France and England, football would have been termed as Modern day slavery. I may sound racist but this is true.
