I tend to agree with Linekar here.

If only the whole world agreed with you.

Glad this is all clear once and for all.

Clarity - that's what it offers. At last.

The passback to keeper rule (and related steps) is the only big change on the field of play in ages. This rubbish is off-field.

Do you really think that? And what possible relevance does it have to this?
And you've spoken to them all? What a ridiculous comment to make.

Seriously - this suggest that all change is good. It's not is it?

No I haven't spoken to them all but that one they keep in the box agreed with the ref on the field so that's 2 out of 2 so far

But very, very short of "every single referee who saw that on replay." Admit it - it was a stupid thing to say. If referees were all 100% consistent like that, there'd be no need for VAR.

Fucking hell it's called hyperbole you have heard of that before?
It's actually 3 refs thought it was a penalty - on the pitch, the var ref and the one in the studio. Because it was a penalty. The only people saying it wasn't a penalty are idiots like mark lawrenson.

Funnier than he thinks he is.
It should be used and it wasn't a penalty.

The VAR ref doesnt get say in the decision, so thats still only 1.

By the one in the box I meant the one the BBC keep in a cupboard somewhere

He took his legs away to stop a clear goal scoring opportunity how was it not a penalty?
binka

Nah if he'd tackled him the ball would have been taken away from griezmann's control. He very slightly touched the ball onto griezmanns boot, the ball rebounded forward in the direction griezmann was moving and then he took his legs away. Just because he touched the ball first it doesn't mean he gets to wipe him out, if he'd made proper contact with the ball and cleared it away then no penalty but he didn't do that

show me in the laws where it gives a measurement of how far a tackler must use the ball for it to be a tackle!

You're of course welcome to interpret what I wrote in your own way. Doesn't change what I said.

Not conclusive .Such a precedence would leave the game open to all sorts of professional fouls. Touch the ball slightly in a tackle and then take the forwards teeth out, in the same tackle, with the same foot. Fair? ...
The Aussie stopped Griesmann from active play with the second movement of his foot - admittedly the same foot that very slightly touched the ball. A touch that had no bearing on the trajectory of the ball in relativity to Griesmanns movement towards goal in the penalty area. Clear cut!

Having said that, the Peru VAR decision vs Denmark was a joke. the Peruvian forward intentionally put positioned his foot in the way of the danish defenders trailing foot, yet the ref gave it after reviewing VAR
. just shows how naive the refs are.

the cheating forward then went on to take the penaly and did one of those dodgy staggering run ups... and sent the ball into row z... cunt... Karma
