BuffaloUSAGers 1,430 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Poland have to calm down. They look like Rangers the way their midfield is handing the ball back to Argentina. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitre_mouldmaster 21,511 Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 VAR isnt ruining the WC, its the dreadful refereeing that is. Or at least the current rules not being fit for a game with VAR. I would have agreed it was a pen if he had made contact with Messi before Messi had actually headered the ball over the bar, but that had already happened.

If a defender is late and hits the player its a penalty. 🤣 Defenders make contact all the time without getting the ball and it's not a penalty, you literally get told to at least make contact in an aerial duel Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, yes. It would not be as clear cut as here, but in a world where we have VAR, then yes. If a player blazes a shot wide, and then is clipped after he has hit it, then the clip did absolutely fuck all in stopping the chance of a goal, so a penalty should not be given. A penalty should be the punishment for interfering with a goal scoring opportunity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it’s when the ball is heading out the park and the advantage/chance is away it seems pointless but I’d take on the argument that you can’t just foul folk even if the balls going out of play. But gut instinct was nah. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
