Reminded me of the Kane one against Mexico
He was kicking upward at the ball but the Mexican attacker got his leg in there first, leading to a penalty kick for Mexico. Very awkward for a non-fanatic of soccer, as Kane had position and had started his kick before the Mexican player's leg came across from the side. But apparently the right call (thanks VAR).
