Well, she's beaten cancer twice. What's a penalty shoot-out after that.German keeper was cool as a cucumberger.
What's the alternative? Letting them celebrate for longer? I hate VAR as much as most, but honestly thought she got it confirmed and handled quite fast. In the Premier League, we'd have had four minutes of cameras cutting between the VAR room and nervous players and fans.What a disgraceful piece of refereeing there at the end when she told the celebrating players to wait for the VAR confirmation of the save. Talk about draining the game of any joy whatsoever.
Berger the star there. Amazing save in extra time, couple of saves and a penalty of her own. Pretty incredible given they were down to 10 since the 13th minute
The alternative was to simply trust your own eyes and lineswoman. No call, no problem. Goal. This was a prime example of meddling.What's the alternative? Letting them celebrate for longer?

Cracking game though.
What if she wasn't sure? That's football now.The alternative was to simply trust your own eyes and lineswoman. No call, no problem. Goal. This was a prime example of meddling.

Yes.So you'd want her to ignore the call from VAR to delay?
I don’t think I have seen better. Well worth watching again if people haven’t seen it.Possibly the best save I’ve ever seen! Still, disappointed France didn’t get through. Thought the last kick of the game was going in
