[MacIrish75]

You could not pay me enough to be an opposing fan in Azteca.

 

[Dale]

Wow it’s pouring down rain in just that exact corner after Kane scored

 

[thekid33]

Great penalty take

As an Eagles fan I love a rowdy environment but this is some real third world trash from their fans

It’s gonna get worse from both fans and players

 

[Tejas]

Bout to get dirty

 

[Bane]

I'm sorry but this is stupid. How can you let play go on forever and then just go back and decide to review it. What if England had scored a goal? If a player just flops around long enough they can trigger a review? Stupid.

Seriously would like someone to answer this, how long can a ref just let play go before they decide to arbitrarily go back and review a play? Why not just start reviewing shit from the 1st half too? Maybe they should abolish retroactive VAR review for penalties if play was let on and only allow review if it's called on the spot.

By the way, I'm not arguing that it was a red card, simply the review mechanism is bizarre to me.

They showed England supporters with their kids in the crowd earlier and man did it ever make me squeamish as a dad who loves taking his kids to ballgames. Some environments just aren’t meant for kids.

I’m a causal - is Gordon just the greatest winger of all time? He’s been on fire

Hes gonna flop hard at barcelona

He's solid

I get it and i dont. It was an obvious thing that happened so I get it but so much of soccer seems to be "we do whatever we want whenever we want"

 

[NDPhilly]

The craziest part is that these fans mostly paid over $5000 each to get in. These are supposed to be the well-behaved ones lmao.

 

[Fbolt]

the fix is in

Always has been

 

[MacIrish75]

No fucking way

Edit: I thought it was another red review. Probably a penalty.

It's like a possible targeting happening, and then deciding to stop play and review it like 3 plays later. Very weird.

 

[Bane]

Ref is on the take, or afraid for his life leaving the Azteca.

 

[FOTY977]

That was a business decision awarding that by the ref, cartel would have had his ass

 

[thekid33]

HATE the stutter kick penalties

 

[calvegas04]

Sucks for England, FIFA doesn't want them to win

 

[NDRock]

Soccer is so stupid sometimes but holy shit this is entertaining.

 

[greyhammer90]

This is a good sport that is somewhat continually ruined by the nonsense surrounding the officiating. The way the rules are inconsistently applied, the seemingly random level of severity of each penalty (murder someone? free kick. Lightly graze someone? PK.), the constant flopping, the way the players waste time by arguing with the ref which is permitted, and the nonsense extra time stuff. It's all so bad.

 

[Tejas]

Feels like a hockey power play

 

[slick7410]

This game is wild! Mexico and their bullshit do make them an easy villain to root against.

From the first game Brazil seems to have lost all the free-flow and just come off apathetic (to the untrained eye).

This is fun

 

[Sea Turtle]

That's exactly what I was thinking.

 

[calvegas04]

Will the ref allow the game to end with England in the lead?

 

[Tejas]

No way that happens

 

[Fbolt]

11 minutes of extra time? Cartels paying good money. That is ridiculous.
