fucking hell man, ref needs to start booking players for appealing for VAR

"Appealing for everything all the time even when half the time you know it's not yours, that's being a professional football" according Hoddle just then.

Nah, that's being tedious wanker.

Nah, of course no pen.

That's a big miss. Shame.

This ref has been pretty shit.

Goal line tech, now there's something that is working a peach

 

 

Correct decision.

 

The only problem was the fact play carried on for like 30 seconds then he brought it all the way back.  Can't stop the play evey time a player goes down in the box either though

The replay shows the ball deviates slightly which means he touched the ball. They fucked up.

 

Touching a ball slightly doesnt mean that it isnt a foul..

It means he won the ball so unless it was reckless (or he does something else like pull the player down with his arm) then aye it literally does.

 

No it doesnt. The follow through clips Griezmann's legs when he is clean through. 100% penalty.

 

The follow up had about as much purchase as a hair. I'm sick of this whole contact=foul nonsense. The game's dead when fans of the game are perpetuating this bollocks.

Absolutely this.

And the football climate is the main issue with VAR beyond the breaks in play. We're not going to get more fair decisions but instead delve into more minutiae to justify bullshit decisions on penalties and justify players throwing themselves to the floor.

Umtiti restoring parity. Shola-esque.

And down goes Hernandez again. Foul, but what a fanny.

A lot of diving and feigning all over the place by France. Pretty tedious and they really don't need that with the quality they have.

Ref obviously not helping.

Both Costa's goals were brilliantly Shearer-esque. Love it.

Ronaldo is definitely happier with this result than if Portugal had won 1-0

He's owes that man for quite a few goals.

Looking forward to seeing that.

That Mr J Sharples is class

Relentlessly funny.

Remember that stat that Bale had when he first started at Spurs and he didn't win a game for like 30 games. And now he's scoring worldies in the Cl final

There is hope for Jack Rodwell still.

pahahaha, Ronaldo

Ronaldo desperate for his shirt off moment there!

Ramos v Mane looks like it won't end well.

Cuntery incoming.

I mean Ramos defo didn't think, "im gonna put his shoulder out here". It's just a foul, typical snidey defending

But when you do that constantly, and are very much "that kind of player" then the odds of an outcome like today are higher.

So it's also only logical that he gets blamed.

Linesman definitely made the correct decision for the wrong reason.

Gutted for Salah, Ramos really is a cunt.

He would be a mega star in America man. It would be ridiculous.

 

If he still is motivated enough, then yeah Mr Middle Ground.

I think all he needs is to be put on a pitch and a ball at his feet.

Looks like there's a red patch on the back of that Bilbao kit.

Front looks great though. NB killing it again this year?

Or maybe he thinks Conte should definitely stay and that is his way of saying Conte still has many trophies in him.

... Yeah, that'll work.

My first thought went to Papiss there. But nope, he only got 9 for Freiburg before moving to us. Surprising.

What on earth was that from Pickford?! Actively just got out of the way of Arnautovic's shot.
