Group C: Argentina, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Poland

[TheBigIguana]

One fun thing is FIFA telling refs to add proper time on and showing how much a farce it has been for years

 

[GoldenToffee]

That De Paul is kin rubbish.

 

[MikeH72]

No mate, but I personally find it enjoyable when who wins and loses has some hope of fairly being determined

You find it enjoyable when some fat mess sat in a control room drawing lines on a screen decides who wins or loses a football match?

 

[TheBigIguana]

What on earth are you on about?

If you're not bothered about accuracy from the refs that's fine. But you're looking for WWE not competition

Saudi are playing decently tbh. Seems like the idea is to play such a high line that every Argentina attack is offside, and it's working.

Absolute parody account, surely to god.

 

[GoldenToffee]

What's with the referees stopping games when there is no head injury? Ridiculous.

As opposed to some guy stationed on the side who can't possibly see it accurately every time? Yeah fine with me.

The calls usually aren't wrong, they just don't do what you want.

Nigel's cousin Salmon Al going off early

Terrible going forward though, not had a shot yet have they, they get in good positions and turn back

I don’t think soccer is the sport for you then because the rest of us absolutely hate it.

FTFY

You have actually watched how VAR works in reality, right?

Or ever attended a game of football before you had to wait 5 minutes to see if you were allowed to enjoy a moment that's long since passed?

I don't watch the games though right?

I'm fine with the right decisions being given

The problem isn't so much VAR as it is the way it is used

"Clear and obvious" is what it's supposed to be for, and if it was just used for that then I doubt there'd be as much consternation
