to be honest, I was a little bit upset with iran not getting the penalty earlier in the 2nd half, thought they got a 50-50 penalty on the hand to sort of make up for it (although much later on so not really equal), and i thought the ronaldo penalty is just what ronaldo does in drawing fouls and it would have been given in any la liga match.
what really upsets me though is what they discuss in the video. the ronaldo foul is either intentional (elbow to the face, away from ball, red card and 1-3 game suspension) or the referee assesses he was trying to get through and there is no foul. there is no middle ground on this, so yellow doesn't make sense. like carlos said, there shouldn't be a rule that it's a red card unless messi/ronaldo and then only a yellow.
