Never a penalty. Want Argentina (Messi) to go through, but that should never have been. Justice, VAR idiotic there.

VAR isn't looking good coming out of this world cup. There's been some absolutely ridiculous decisions.

 

[Nick]

Again, at what point is it fixing?

 

[Liquid Gold]

Looks like FIFA are desperate to keep the big billers in

 

[SIR ERNIE]

Very good save that too.

 

[Johnnythespider]

That's a seriously bad decision though , worrying

The kind of decision that makes you question neutrality

 

[CCFCSteve]

What about TAA? Not particularly noticed before, but isn't he quite quick?

I don’t think he’s overly rapid, same as you though, not really noticed. Means we’ve got no CB cover as well

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

Danny Murphy sounds eerie like Big Ron…

Was just saying that to a mate. Smacked of wanting to get Messi through to knock outs !

 

[David O'Day]

I like VAR but this is just weird decisions by weird refs

 

[Johnnythespider]

I think I've only ever seen one referee go to the screen and say nah fuck off, that was earlier in this tournament, he would get the final if I was choosing

Considering its only meant to be there to help the ref make a decision, it's alarming how few ref's ever look at it and stick to their guns.

I'd love to see Poland win this but are they Wales in disguise?

 

[Otis]

What else is the keeper meant to do? It's a nonsense.

 

[Alkhen]

Literally VAR needs to fuck off. Its gets more decisions wrong than it gets right.

Messi, saved. Justice.

I like the idea of VAR in theory but they just mess it up at every opportunity. That was a joke of a decision, Messi had already missed the header!

I would like a system more in line with Cricket or Tennis where each team has a number of challenges. Then the Var team talk through the decision.

At the moment it seems pretty arbitrary what they check for and class a clear error. Take that off the ref and hand it to to the teams. Limit their challenges and you won't waste time sweating the small stuff.

I said it a few days ago, but I can seriously see some dodgy tournament defining decisions coming in the next couple of weeks.

It has been really questionable so far, but most of the decisions have been of little consequence.

It’s not a conspiracy, it’s just stupidity.

No idea why we insist on giving the least important people on the pitch more toys to play with and more importance, but apparently football wasn’t fair enough before VAR.

Enjoyed last night a fair bit! It was always a case of just needing one goal which would open the floodgates. Felt the Wales fans were very good throughout the tournament and were let down by the players. They were awful and looked like they had no fight for the vast majority of the three games.

Meanwhile 8/8 stadiums is done. Senegal will probably not be pushovers but we should get the job done.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Spawny goal, now Poland will have to come out and play, or do they still qualify with 4 points

 

[wingy]

It's mission creep pure and simple.
Entities such as these make it inevitable

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

I've been flicking between the channels and have missed all three goals. FFS. Setting up the laptop so I can watch both games.

That's the end of the scoring then

 

[David O'Day]

The Mexico vs. Suadi Arabia game is ace

 

[SBT]

Mexico-Saudi game has very quickly become a lot of fun. Goal of the tournament as well.

 

[Otis]

It is indeed. Great stuff

 

[CCFCSteve]

Poland might be about to fuck this

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

For a big fella Kieffer Moore is not very good at being a big fella on a football pitch

I know who id prefer out of him and yok

Poland have been like Wales against us.

Just been to toilet, came back in to see Argentina 2-0 up

 

[Bugsy]

Poland are still 2nd as it stands because Mexico have had more yellow cards

I don't mind Moore. He was hardly helped by his (Welsh) teammates.

 

[Deleted member 9744]

It seems like Poland had no plan for this game

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Missed the fourth goal as one of my dogs just took a shit in the kitchen. Not even a joke.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Imagine getting knocked out on yellow cards.

You have to think the message will be out to them to go all out for a third.
