But that is seemingly all it takes to get a player sent off. An allegation. Hincapie covered his mouth... Yes. Was it in a confrontational manner... Yes. Did the Mexican player run to the referee like a small child saying he can't do that regardless of what was said... Yes. That is all it...

I get the reasoning for bringing this law in about players covering their mouths... And I fully understand it's bloody stupid to do so and run the risk... But I feel the Mexican player absolutely got the Ecuador player sent off even if nothing derogatory was said. He literally runs to the ref...

Anyone else ruling the ET goal out by Tah? Personally I am. Does enough that although the keeper stands back up and makes an attempt to save it, his reaction and time to compose following being fouled is heavily reduced and chances of saving it are increased if not fouled.

I am surprised she never saw the foul that led to the attack for the penalty, which VAR came in to help her. It definitely has a feel of waiting for VAR to take over rather than give something.

Wow... just wow. How have the officials not seen the very high foot leading to Germanys goal?

At time of writing, I was not aware their games had played. They had a slim chance pre match of qualifying.

So unless Qatar get to the final 2 rounds his tournament is over too.. Does it fit the crime? Definitely not.

Just watched the Konsa incident again in slow mo from behind the goal/pitch. I still think it should have been a penalty against Konsa. However, the slow mo he jumps in front of Adu (think it was him) and he knees/kicks Konsa which brings him down. Dont get me wrong, its stretching. As I said...

How was that a foul against Rashford?

They may be a team but the 4th official is not in the best position to give that, certainly not in a better position than the ref. Didn't think it was a foul. If the ref cant make a decision by himself on the field in that position then something is wrong.

Im confused. Senaya runs across Kane and goes down. Keeper has ball and ref plays on. He then kicks straight to Saka. He then blows up for the injury and restarts with a free kick. Either hes lost it or I have.

Think Pickford can be very lucky here.

I get why you're doing this, and will complete it for you, but I must confess I don't like the term "improvements in refereeing". This is said before doing your form by the way so apologies if this is the subject. For me, its not necessarily improvements in refereeing that needs to happen but...

Got a question about subs and hydration breaks. We know we have 3 sub windows per game. Making a sub at half time does not count. What about during the forced hydration break? As the Americans keep online its quarters, not halves (tongue in cheek).

Just seen 3D image. Close but onside.

Unless Konsa has a really big knee, offside?

There shouldn't be one if one already occured shortly before, such as the Qatar game when the keeper was down injured pre penalty, they all grabbed a drink then. But it wasn't the pre planned one. Common sense would have applied and wouldn't have needed a hydration drink.

Just seen the foul. Its a penalty every day of the week. In real time and VAR.

Surprised no thread here discussing the supposed incidents in this match. Never stayed up to watch so only seen clips of it. Two Haiti penalty appeals. 5 minutes apart seemingly. And both by Hanley. Arm out the body image, we keep being told (even on here) that its a penalty outside UK. So...

Thats funny. Refused to show the world the offside image in the Swiss game, but just shown the image if the goal in the Brazil game by Morocco that no one ever needed to see. Why?
