stlouismag Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Croatia to troll us all and win this after extra time, with a celebratory 10k run round the stadium before the trophy presentation. FWIW, Lalas just said that VAR "worked perfectly" and the defender should have jumped with his hands behind his back if he didn't want to risk being called for a penalty.

Guest firetotheworks Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Feel like I'm watching a different match here like. Can scarcely believe there's even one person saying it's not a deliberate hand ball, let alone a handful. I guess I have to begrudgingly admit that at the very least it can't be clear and obvious then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Don’t think it was deliberate but said straight away that slow the replay down and the Ref will give a penalty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_NUFC Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Already seen loads of 'if it takes that long it's not clear and obvious' completely ignoring the point that any referee isn't going to make such an important decision in a World Cup Final by watching it once. Obvious pen for me, no idea why there's any dispute, he clearly moves his hand towards the ball and handles it. Still feel like his hands were headed in that direction before the ball even changed direction. f***, I just saw the 10th replay and I just realized the France player misses the ball immediately before it hits his arm. He didn’t expect it to come there, so his arm was naturally moving towards his side as he was landing. Hmmmm. Feels like 12 Angry Men, this. Haha very apt.

Kasper Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 I wouldnt say its a clear penalty like. Like a lot of things that's a call the ref can make or not. Neither is factually wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
