I also thought there were a few german challenges that went over the top of the ball

the foul award against totti, Ballack clearly went over the ball and the only action left to Totti was to jump, OK I'll agree it didn't need the pirouette or pike in there but nonetheless.

As for Lehmann, to me the way his body seemed to swing around after he punched was an unnatural movement, which to me suggested he also went to get the player as well (and its not unlike Lehmann to have a moment of madness is it).
