From what I saw in the second half.. Reffing was again dire. The germany/latvia game was pathetic from a ref's POV.. Dismissing 3 definite claims for a penalty. Seems they're scared to award them to the minnow teams.

Believe me, the first yellow was a for a cynical, blatant scything down of an opponent who had skinned him with a great piece of skill . I think that the dear departed Kent Walton should be resurrected to commentate on the play in the box. As Ian Wright said, the Czech defender was almost "giving him one" when he held Van Nis in a bear hug before throwing him to the ground, Mick McManus would have been proud of that move.
