That wasn't a sending off in my book.
And that's not a penalty.
VAR in this half has been crap and ruined the game. Stop start total rubbish.

Lost the plot tonight Portugal v Iran.
Literally any touch of ball to hand or pen area contact and bobs your uncle. |  |

the errors with var don't seem very different from the errors without var. |  |
| And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show |

And making arguable decisions "clear and obvious". And ruining the game of football. | |

A deliberate elbow to the throat isn't a red? You can see it. He does it petulantly. | |

It's not VAR ruining the game. It's the people looking at it and the referee interpreting it. No way a panalty |  |

The guy leaned back into him to stop him getting past and he was scrambling to get past. I don't actually think it was that bad.
I'll look again later.
You have to agree that this half has been totally ruined though?

No its not - the decisions are all arguable either way. Therefore having technology deciding subjective decisions cannot work | |

You can definitively know if something was deliberate from a replay? Ok bud. | |

Yes but it's always going to need a human to make the decision. These are by their very nature subjective decisions and that's why it doesn't work.
Goal line technology- great, use it for offsides too - they're a matter of fact.
All the rest of it is threatening to ruin the World Cup and is actually making player behaviour worse rather than better. | | | |

The two footed tackle was a red card offence - yet that was missed.
The ronaldo penalty was soft but I understand why it was given
The ronaldo challenge on the defender was not a yellow let alone a red, handbags really
The Iran penalty - oh dear, oh dear. Shocking decision. | | | |

To be fair it has been used really well at times. That Iran/Portugal match has certainly raised a few doubts again about its purpose. It’s the subjective decisions that are clearly the issue. | |

It's like bringing in a law with 100 loopholes in it. | |

These two teams deliberately try to deceive the ref in every game they play. This has just amplified it to the max.
The issue is that some teams are essentially more dishonest than others and firmer discipline needed all round. We need referees to be more like those in rugby, zero tolerance. Any footballer drawing a tv or holding up an imaginary card should be booked. Without exception.
I even saw a coach drawing a tv the other day, unbelievable. [Post edited 26 Jun 2018 8:08]

VAR ruined the FA Cup games it was used in last season, hardly rocket science it would ruin the World Cup too.
It will destroy football as we know and love it if continued to be used next season.
Thankfully the main team I support is non league so I doubt I will see it down as far as that! | | | |
