    Regardless of if you thought it was a penalty or not was never going be over turned as a clear error so that is why the ref didn’t go and look at VAR.

    Apparently he disagreed with the decisions the Brazilian chap made on Saturday but maybe had his England hat on !

    Should have known it wouldn't go well for them when ITV were wanking over Croatia's fossilized midfield trio before the game, citing then as "the best in the world":laugh:

    It’s crazy to think we have one of the most valuable central midfield partnerships in world football. Mac Allister has been really impressive all tournament.

    Maybe most of these refs are pretty decent at their jobs and it's the pundits and fans who don't know the rules?

    Tbf, Argies have played this pretty well. Just let them have the ball and kill their pensioners on the break.

    That was impressive by Messi.

    They will still go over the top mind, they can't help themselves.

    That assist from Messi shows you pace isn't everything when driving into the box. Protect the ball, bait the defnder and pick your moment to drive and catch them off guard.

    Tough lesson for Gvardiol there.

    Wonderful. We'll never see the likes again. Looks like Argies have a finisher as well in Alvarez who won't **** up his chances unlike Aguero and Higuain.
