Iranian John Moss.

:O 

 

Contraversy 

[Wymsey]

Dive..

[AKCJ]

Daft tackle like but i'm not sure it's as blatant as they're making out. Minimal contact.

 

[Raj]

VAR

🤣🤣🤣🤣🇲🇫🇲🇫🇲🇫🇲🇫

[ramboacdc]

Spot on. Ref got it initially right and VAR got it right too. 

[Unabomber]

I don’t think this ref knows what he’s doing lol. He did the VAR signal points to the spot and then no pen

[AKCJ]

Yeah was gonna say. Barely (if any) contact.

 

Vardy special.

[Bob Weasel Fox]

Quite right - NOT a penalty

[Ian Nacho]

That's a pen every day of the week.

Yep 

[JonnyZeroFox]

I’m honest here, he does look for it and leaves his foot in… performance rating gone to a 1/10 now

[foxfanazer]

that's great 

 

First time I've seen a ref stick with his original decision to be honest..what a time to do it

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Well at least we can't say he's biased towards the big team

[RowlattsFox]

Wanted it to be a dive but I reckon it's a pen. At the speed they were running its enough contact and a stupid challenge from Mane.

 

In some ways great to see a ref stick to his decison but think he's wrong. 

[Vlad the Fox]

There was no contact.

[JonnyZeroFox]

Mbappe  

[FoxAsh]

Looked like a pen even on VAR

[Suzie the Fox]

Looool

[HighPeakFox]

No penalty for me, contact was minimal at best.

Looks to have lost some weight, he looks well 

Was thinking his spell in management was absolutely awful for his reputation. Incredible player and one of England's very best, I loved watching him.

[AKCJ]

Olise is an absolute magician.

 

So similar to Riyad.

Not many people have boycotted this tournament, have they..

I mean, boycotts of big tournaments is never really gonna happen due to demand, even at club football you'd struggle because there'll always be people who want to go to games. We've had one boycott work at club level, and while it can't just be put down to time/weather like the detractors tried to, it being a freezing Monday night helped elevate numbers by making it less likely those on the fence choose in favour of going.

[JonnyZeroFox]

Let’s put it this way, it wasn’t clear and obvious so good the original decision stuck 

[CWC1983]

Has Dembele touched the ball yet?
