ENG vs IRA Matchday 2 - Claus (BRA)

[RustyRef]

I thought with concussion a "neutral" doctor had to clear you to play. Not the faf that we saw today..

Don't think so, there aren't neutral doctors at the vast majority of matches. Although ironically there was someone there with a FIFA doctor bib on when they finally came to stretcher him off.

That must be the spin doctor.

Anyone want a line-of-sight offside against Bellingham goal hanging for England's 4th goal... I know the Iranians didn't appeal... but I'm interested to see where Jude was when the shot was struck... tough for the GK...

Not sure I’m a massive fan of how the ref runs in at pace to the site of every free kick? It works well for him but hard to step it up for a tackle worthy of a caution / dismissal, feels like it loses its impact?

All the FIFA refs do this. I don't like it one bit

I called this live, he's bang in line with keeper and ball

I said this at the time as well. Although if you watch the keeper, he follows the ball the entire time

It's a very Latin American thing. We see it a lot with Central American refs in US qualifiers.

He might very well be on side there. Possibly checked. I'd expect to have been but possibly also expect it to not have
