That was a pen and a red, what the fuck? Refs are gonna be too embarrassed to give another pen this tournament imo.

Edit - maybe not a red, because of double jeopardy. But that was stonewall penalty imo. Can’t believe ref didn’t give it in real time.

The thing is that's the type of foul you see loads but if the player gets their shot off for some reason they don't give it. Never understood it. Just encourages players to go down in a heap. Should be advantage and if the player doesn't score bring it back for the penalty.

There isn't any way that's not a penalty. It's obvious. The only way that's not a penalty is if they have FIFA officials in the video booth whispering in the video referees ear about television money.

The officials in this WC have been nothing short of pathetic. Don't get me wrong but there has been some really good officiating.

But a number of refs sitting infront of TV monitors showing a number of angles and they STILL can't make the right decision?

Fuck me. Amateurs.
