Disgraceful decision .3
-
That's very poor. If the world cup is decided on that decision, then something has gone wrong with football.1
-
Definite penalty in my opinion. Hand went to ball.2
-
I think Croatia tie this at some point.0

Should be if they result in a goal, this is where it falls down and I don’t hate it.Callumcafc said:

Leave it out, he had absolutely no time to get out of the way, that's never intentional. Rubbish decision and i say that as someone who wants France to win.paulie8290 said:

People saying England are reliant on set pieces, well so are France really1

50-something woman who never watches football turned to me and said "if France win off that, I won't consider that a proper win" couldn't agree more. Not France's fault though to be fair.0

That decision will increase the VAR debate.0

France are nothing for us to worry about for Euro 2020 / Qatar at this rate.
They look shit1 -
Never a pen. Thanks VAR. How on earth is that not accidental?0
-
Would not be surprised at this rate if at some point France is down to 10 men.0

They won their group, were superb against Argentina, beat a rock solid Uruguay quite comfortably and then beat Belgium who beat us fairly easily.
How exactly are they 'nothing for us to worry about'?2 -

Your mental if you think he saw that ball and thought I will bring my hand to thatpaulie8290 said:
Ball to hand he moved his hand down towarda to ball, how is that ball to handnth london addick said:Never a pen absolute ball to hand
He was in motion his arms were moving the French player fluffed his lines he couldn’t have expected him to miss the ball and his hand touched it
In slow mo it may look like it but the World doesn’t move in slow motion6 -
This is shaping up to by the best World Cup final in my lifetime (first one 1990) - feels like it could go either way.2
-
Croatia more shots than France 7-10
-
Cracking half of football. VAR will come into this again before the 90 is up i reckon0

The day Martin Keown is used as a barometer for what’s right and wrong is when you know your argument is flawedpaulie8290 said:

I'd love to know why Perisic was jumping up with his arm at such a weird angle like that. Almost like if the ball happened to hit it, he could claim it was accidental and get away with it.
He can have no complaints IMO.3 -
Lineker, Shearer, Klinsmann and Ferdinand all said it was a bad decision.paulie8290 said:

As the BBC pundits have said France have offered nothing. We can’t have the biggest game in sport being won by a team that look like they don’t belong there.
They need to turn it on to win the respect of the football world second half.
Fact is - they have looked useless in this game yet are somehow winning it.

Lineker finally started pronouncing VAR properly... Only took you the whole bloody tournament!!3

Ref wasn’t sure shouldn’t be given, he even went back for another look so obviously wasn’t 100%.0
