Strange this Walton stuff. Is there really a debate whether it’s a penalty? It was pretty cut and dry. Keeper took the player and didn’t get any of the ball. I would imagine it’s only a point of debate in the U.K.
Are people only up in arms because Argentina benefits?
See where the panel are coming from, he's the Goalkeeper he cant just get out of the way.
But equally he's come off his line to get the ball, so he has to win it - It does feel like he plants his feet, because he knows whats going to happen, so tries to make it look as though the Argentinian is running into him.
If he had stayed on his line, and they ran into each other, then I'd argue no penalty
I think the Goalkeeper has tried to look clever, and its not worked.

It was a penalty. It shouldn't be. That's a different argument.
It's like the off sides. Yes it's off side but if a human can't give it off it should be on.

And getting tackled everytime he received the ball for the opening 40 minutes.
Today all the talk was about Messi, but it's Alvarez who's been the main threat
That or the hotel chef is a Morocco fan and put together a dodgy lasagna.

he took a shot which was going wide, before they collided.
Walton just backs up the ref 99% of the time.
I'm glad this isnt on BBC though, Lineker & Co would be sucking him off after that
I think we've just witnessed the answer
