Thre wasn't a penalty IMO

 

[Juliana]

I know I might be a little biased, but I believe we had an unmarked penalty...

Just saying.

 

[Ice devil slayer]

What a World Cup atm..every big team is either losing or drawing can't believe it lol

Need to get a sombrero, for myself!
Mexican fans in Moscow.

I believe Brazil got quite fucked in their match by the referee, the biggest problem coming in the Swiss' goal (huge contrast to them getting benefits by the ref in the last wc's opening match). We have technology, use it!

Can't say I'm sad Brazil didn't win tho

Coutinho's goal is probably the goal of the tournament so far, no?

Yes, I am unhappy with the lack of consistency in the usage of VAR depending on the ref. In Serbia vs Costa Rica match the referee went to check anything controversial, conversely in the Argentina match the referee does not bother to use it and in the brazil match again that happens.

It is all a bit pointless if it is not going to be used.

 

[Farfalla]

In France's game, technology was crucial, not only the VAR. I don't see what's the point of having the vídeo there if there's no criteria for its use and things like what happened today could happen again... The technology was supposed to make things more fair, but sinces it's up to the referees it actually makes matches and results even more unfair.

I liked Nacho's goal a bunch more tbf.

Just because of referee didn't go to the line and check a Video doesn't mean he didn't use it after Switzerland scored he was clearly communicating with that 4 referee but then they decided that it's a goal ( which is bad decision because Brazil should get a free kick because Switzerland player clearly has broken the rules... )

The Var on the line is for the main referee if he wants to check something personally but he has contact with the referee inside some storage room all the time.. ( Still, as I said it have failed either way because Brazil should get a free kick )

In the second situation, he didn't use it because he decided that there wasn't a penalty in which I pretty much agree with ( it's 50/50 here some referees would give a penalty for that while others wouldn't )

 

[Farfalla]

Ah yeah that totally justifies the lack of criteria '_'...
Not double checking an error for the sake of God knows what and then being arrogant enough to just assume he doesnt have to. It's so retarded to claim that C. Ronaldo's penalty wasnt a dive but this was "bad timing on the fall". The guy tried, couldn't make it, and gets penalized for being a sportsman Guess football wanna favor who manipulates the rules and interpretations better...

Watch more jokes like that happen until they actually add rules for what they're introducing - like others sports with vídeos have. Call it salt, people are debating about what's what but I haven't seen a single soul saying that was a fair result yet.

I think i put too much faith in Brazil but I think they could do better than that.

 

[Purity of Magi]

Ok that's some quite of faith you had there LULZ

Not quite, they used it partially. People in the VAR cabin informed the ref that it wasn't needed, yes, which is what's wrong, as then they proceeded to not review the play. Each team should have X attempts to force the ref to use VAR, kind of like tennis, to avoid this stuff from happenning.

The penalty is a soft penalty I agree (penalty nevertheless) but the Swiss goal comes from a foul without a doubt (and shit keeping from Allison imo).

Raven 3+ goals from a team are quite rare LOL poor Swiss team.

Now I'm curious about what you set for Russia's matches xD

 

[Vici]

Expect when Ronaldo was " Diving " he made a contact with defender's leg that this one left

Brazilian player has chosen to go for a penalty after Switzerland defender didn't hold him anymore

Some referees will give a penalty for that other won't same goes that some referees allow for the more psychical game ( That's why it's 50/50 for a penalty for me there wasn't )

Each team should have X attempts to force the ref to use VAR, kind of like tennis, to avoid this stuff from happening.

^ This

Because with more controversial and aggressive match and without it I will go with some Arsenal player words " Can't wait to spend 30 more minutes on the field "

Call it salt, people are debating about what's what but I haven't seen a single soul saying that was a fair result yet.

I'm not saying it was fair even because Switzerland goal should not count especially when the referee was communicating with the other one

Exactly, like in American Football. Each team has a number of "Challenge" that they can use at any dubious play and make the referees check the video.
If the demandant team was right then the rules apply to the case. If it wasn't right to demand the action then said team gets a tactical penalty, that way each team would think twice about asking for a video check.

The reason for why this isn't a thing in Soccer is all for lame comfort... and game-flow to keep the shouting crowd entertained.
