Thats what I saw...

People going here Edit: perhaps not

Imagine being behind late in the match and then standing three yards from an opposing freekick and complaining that the opponent is delaying the restart

I don't think challenge occurred after the GK was in control. He can justify the whistle over concerns about the player on the ground. I didn't love it either, but I can't see a DFK there. If he didn't blow the whistle he risked a PK for something silly done by an Argie

I'm just saying that we should all develop a 'feel' which can be justified under law 12 when difficult situations arise. I think my parsing of Law 12 allows for that. It's just a way to separate fair contact from unfair contact.

Yeh, I know the definitions. Recklessness is not about injury, but about consequences. We assume injury is the most relevant consequence, but it is not written. The most important bit is the state of mind of the offender - that he was reckless as to the consequence we have in mind. When we...

Agree with all that, but for what you said was irrelevant. That's a matter of interpretation of the laws, and I dealt with that in my previous reply. Careless is as to a particular end. The laws don't specify what.

Problem is, it's not a foul because someone kicked an opponent having not tried hard enough not to kick them. If that was the case then players ought to do more not to tackle or challenge. They need to be careless as to a particular end. In my view, a foul is when they are careless as to risk...

Many times we've discussed mic-ing up referees and talked about referees giving views to journalists after matches. Stoppage time is the major point of concern for me. How the hecking do we explain that we added the correct amount of time, but then added a bit more to allow a final attack to...

20 seconds before releasing the ball into play by Argy GK. Laid down for 10 seconds without ever having been under pressure!

Okay - well we've pilfered one... Only the highest quality

Probably need to sub Irvine before he gets himself sent off - matter of time

Unfortunately this seems a solid prediction. The goal Aus scored against France was the first from open play in 4 years. I don't see us pilfering 2 or 3...

EDIT, got the wrong incident Yeh, late challenge. Caught him in the foot as defender jumping to avoid contact. It got pretty willing in the last 25 or so minutes

And what if we don't know who the intended target, but everyone else does? Cue: chaos As always.

Cheeky 😂 Imagine IFAB using the international symbol for 'this means something more than the mere words we're using' and then not describing that something more

Is that the way they're doing it for objective decisions? Seems to vary

I didn't see a flag Possibly TV assumption that the review was for goal?

And now they may be ahead - a ball possibly out of play before the goal. Desperately tight decision. Not sure what the on field decision is Edit:2-1 Jap on review

Japan levels up 4 minutes into second half. This will be a cracker
