Must say that VAR seems to be a lot quicker, I assume it’s this semi automatic system they are using, so out of interest is it going to be introduced into the premiership next season?


That would be a good move, provided it was proved to be reliable and accurate.
Players would no longer have to worry about long fingernails and fans would not be subjected to endless delays

FT... Belgium 0-1 Slovakia

Biggest upset ever in the competition according to the FIFA rankings apparently.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

It was only 6/1. If you played every day it would happen once a week.

Watched the game.  Slovakia fought and defended for their lives.

Doku gave the ball away for the only goal.


First goal VAR rightly disallowed.  Second goal disallowed by VAR in the build up was probably harsh.  Technically correct.  

Lukaku misses enough chances without losing 2 to VAR

For the second goal, the Belgian guy definitely benefited from the inadvertent brush of his fingers so, regardless of what the current laws say, I'm comfortable with it being disallowed. No doubt about the first disallowed goal - you could seem him stood unmarked in the middle of the area.

Credit to Slovakia, they tried to pass it around when they got the chance as well. When they were still trying to pass it around in midfield in stoppage time, I couldn't help but think that we'd have been launching it towards the corner flag in a similar position and probably would have been doing so for the previous ten minutes!

Technically correct? It has to be deliberate handball, it was on the halfway line and picked up on the ‘snickometer’ borrowed from cricket ! It feathered his hand 50 yds out and made no difference to the ball at all. It was VAR balderdash at it’s worst

Shocking all night.

It’s Maignan’s decision to slide in with hands / head and Baumgartner got there first. If anything, it was a penalty as Maignan slid into him. Then he booked Baumgartner.

Intent isn't necessary any longer. Hasn't been for a few years or so, I seem to think. The ball bounces up and hits your hand and you then score, it's handball whether or not you intended anything.
