Think the commentators make a good point - VAR looks at pretty much any chuffin way it can to disallow a goal. It stinks

 

Don't think it's a good point, it's literally the job to make sure the decisions they can look at are correct, all goals are checked to make sure they are goals.

I bet if it wasn't an English Ref it would have been given - first time I've disagreed with a VAR decision this tournement and it just so happens to be an English Ref.  They just aren't at the same standard as other top European Refs

That's every international tournament though. And honestly for me as usual it's made it more entertaining - club football and the well oiled possession machines have more quality to the detriment of entertainment.

I don't think it is, off the top of my head WC2014 group stage was sensational, Euro 2008, 2012 were decent with high scoring and quality matches. Definitely enjoyed the last Euros group stage more than this as well. This isn't close to WC2010 bad by any means but it has that big teams/players underperforming element to it.

 

Hopefully it means the knockouts will be much better.
