Great penalty save... Or is it?
The chest pumping celebration from Mahgreb Fez goalkeeper Khalid Askri is fully justified - he's just saved the penalty that will put his side into the semi-final of the Moroccan Cup - a competition they have won for the previous three years. It was a brilliant moment for the 29-year-old - at least until he turned around...

Surely that shouldn't have been allowed - once the ball has stopped going forward the penalty is finished.
A similar thing happened years ago in a World Cup shoot-out, where the ball hit the post, then hit the keeper (who had dived the right way) on the head, before going into the net. It was allowed, wrongly so according to the rules.
Surely this should've been disallowed on that basis???
