Ghana won the ball in an appealed challenge so my guess is the referee spent too long waving that away and coupled with a quick counter attack was totally lost positionally.

No. I liked the post to acknowledge the loophole..I'm interested in whether it was missed here or there was something else at play.

Was the substitution tactical?

Also Villa and Leeds have away fans along a touchline as opposed to behind a goal.

They probably also had to check the APP as there was a potential foul (it wasn't) on Eze when Ghana won the ball at the very start of the attack so additional layer of complexity. I guess they have to clean the penalty first and then look at APP but it was cleared very fast. I cant help but feel...

It's a pen and on opposition to most I thought the ref got the Pickford one right. Mrs Ls summary was "not as good as the other one, the other night"

If you're not guzzling Powerade you're not doing it right.

Think they are referring to the 60s off the field of play.

It didn't make much sense. Could have dealt with the injuries and not had to add any time on. Also Bellingham no idea how a dropped ball works. First of all wanted to kick it back then once it was on play held his hands up to say I'm not challenging for it despite now being allowed to... 🙈

Not deliberately no. Your saying in the same breath AR counting 8 7 6 which I have misinterpreted as applying to all restarts less CK. I understand that there will be occasions where position is impacted but not as impact fully as you are describing imo. There are solutions to the problems you...

Also on this topic why hasnt corner kicks been included? That's often a time when attacking teams delay taking a restart to waste time.

If it's for an offence before the restart doesn't that lead to the restart being retaken? I don't think you can review a possible block / hold, identify no offence, but then review the distance from wall at restart? I'd have to look more closely again at the changes around restarts and the...

Maybe I am not understanding you. You seem to be indicating that 8s is being enforced at every restart? This is fundamentally wrong and not consistent with the law or the protocol that accompanies it. 8s applied to keeper control only. The 5s applies to when we would have previously blown the...
