Sevilla goalkeeper has plain and simply cheated there and the referees have done nothing? Both saves he was a long way off his line by the time the ball was hit. The first one was a good 3 yards! Pretty disgraceful refereeing imo.

Taking nothing away from Sevilla's penalties though. All of them unstoppable.

When you stop/start/stutter in your run up you can hardly blame the goalie for moving.

Despise the stuttered run up and love seeing smart arse penalties saved/missed but there is nothing against it. The goalkeeper however, by the law of the game, isn't allowed off of his line until the ball is kicked - either behind or in front of it.

3 referees were around every penalty. How could they get it so wrong?

Benfica should at least be querying it.
