Germany vs Paraguay

[WillH]

Thats a red card all day long, made me extremely anxious to watch given that under any difference circumstance, musiala would have broken the players leg

 

[cbr180]

completely agree with this, sets a
dangerous precedent to give a yellow based on the fact hes made minimal contact with him as hes come flying in that way

 

[Archer]

Head loss, zero fcks given, just going to clatter the man. Off you pop, mate.

 

[Johnson]

Assuming you’re referring to the challenge in the 115th minute, it’s only reckless for me. Yes, the player lunges in from the side, however he makes contact with the top of his boot to the side of the boot of the opponent. The opponent’s safety is not endangered and the force used is arguably high but not excessive.

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.

We talked about using the outcome of a tackle to justify a decision in another thread. This Musiala tackle is another one but it works for him in the reverse way. Everything about it smelt red but it missed that final element, the force in and the point of contact.

And the Tah goal should have stood for me. Not enough in there to call a foul in the first place let alone getting VAR involved. I am really confused by the degree of tolerance used by VAR in the world cup.
