Group B: Denmark, Finland, Belgium, Russia

Jeez.  This game is a whole book on sports psychology.

I thought VAR was being used.. confused how that wasn't overturned.

[Arkie Bennett]

Never a penalty, and it was a rubbish one anyway. But did the Finnish player touch the ball with his arm when he hugged the keeper? 

[HybridFox]

Players heads aren't in it tbh. Can't blame them

1-0 Belgium

No, defender made an obvious play of the ball.

If they are giving penalties for that it is worrying

Told you so... This is a farce of a night. End it now please.

Surely the result is secondary tonight, but its all you seem bothered about. They wanted to play on, respect that.

How was that Belgium goal allowed?

 

I get there was a touch from the defender, but come on.

 

That's offside all day.

I’m surprised that wasn’t overturned. Nice of Lukaku to mention Eriksen to the camera though. This could be a high scoring game.

Amazes me that Manchester United fans seem to despise him. 

[Vacamion]

 

If Denmark were to score there would be a massive emotional release.

 

 

[KFS]

Lukaku runs to the camera and says “Chris, Chris, I love you”

I think his point is that it should’ve been taken out of the players hands. Not their decision to make.

English refs on VAR so probably will give it .

[PhillippaT]

It's tricky watching two games at once...

Of course it is. It's just rubbing salt into the pretty gaping wound. It hurts to see the players this out of sorts and I feel they should have been spared of this.

Defender tries to play the ball so new phase of play so can’t be offside.

It should he their choice and their choice only.

Nah that’s very narrow minded

OK, if that's the official rules, it's wrong.

 

The cross directly led to a goal.

 

The defender isn't aware, so has to try to do something.

 

If he leaves it, it's offside.

 

That ain't right.
