andycap Posted June 21, 2024 Share Posted June 21, 2024 It took ages though that's not happened this tournament. It should have been goal before going to var. Instead it was offside going to var. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted June 21, 2024 Share Posted June 21, 2024 The fact that VAR looked at it for so long means it really wanted to overturn it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Vinegar Posted June 21, 2024 Share Posted June 21, 2024 Goal shouldn't have been disallowed, but I wonder if we're going to see players coached more to not follow in so close to the keeper. I guess it's hard to commit when they keep changing the rules and var implementation though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfcastle Posted June 21, 2024 Share Posted June 21, 2024 Remember the Euro 2000 game between these? If not, imagine a draw, but the exact opposite kind of draw to this. Plus for the quality discussion it was France's second string - they'd probably be the 2nd best team in this tournament Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the last two world cups were both better for me if you ignore vibes bias. In terms of Euros I think they're always good pretty with the exception of 2016 which was a massive anomaly in terms of being very low scoring.
