This ref is a amateur. He himself wasted like 5 minutes and he doesn’t add more time?! Idiot

OMFG that chance for Iran right at the end. Would've been one of the most amazing moments in World Cup history. Wow. What a miss. What a miss. Quite how it came down to that to put Portugal out is astonishing. Out of nowhere. Holy crap, what a finish.

Apart from the playacting and the crowd using those f****** vuvuzelas, proud of Iran. Lived up to the nickname, Shirdelaan (Lionhearts) in that match. They made a good fist of it and can go home with their heads held high.

Now to concentrate on England.

The VAR system took a serious blow tonight. Badly used and especially in Iran-Portugal it took way too long to reach decisions. Shades of Spurs v Rochdale.

It's mostly been used well so far, more good calls than bad calls or non calls, but today it was bad.

VAR is shit. Shitty official in the booth? Shitty referee on the pitch? It doesn't work in either instance and we've seen both this tournament. For it to work you need both to be competent.
