And THAT’S what VAR is for. Quick check, Penalty or play on

Terrible call, if it stands after VAR I will lose it

[–] Caranoron463@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Half the audience and all the players screaming "Ruka" (Arm) and grabbing their arm to show that the enemy player touched the ball.

Also, he prolly saw the ball bounce from the arm/chest area but not a clear view.

That's why we have VAR.

Im glad it wasn't a penalty. We need to win or get a draw fair and square.

[–] fuckitsayit@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Better team won

[–] Caesar21Octavoian@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If you get a red card it doesn't really help

[–] CR7_LM10@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Watch the ref blow the whistle at exactly 5 mins

[–] PositiveDuck@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Good call by taylor imo

[–] Its_ABR12@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Breaking news, VAR helped Taylor overturn a call 😱😱😱😱

[–] minivatreni@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That's what I thought, would've been unfair to give that

... ali je Turčin

[–] Caesar21Octavoian@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cakir wants the red card doesn't he

[–] Caesar21Octavoian@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Of fucking course gtfo

[–] BrtGP@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Shocking decision

[–] ziki6154@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No way that is a pen

[–] MimesAreShite@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

no way should that be a penalty

Not a penalty

[–] Caranoron463@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

But honestly, that's a shoulder either way.

[–] Papa_Eftim@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Never a pen

[–] laki1986@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bit he wasn’t really good today and honestly he hasn’t been our best player for a while now.

[–] Chiswell123@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Insane and worrying that he was even sent to look at that. Glad common sense prevailed.

[–] Caesar21Octavoian@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yes thats the correct decision. Nothing he could do and not even the hand

[–] invisible_humor@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Not a pen, but such a shitty angle for var review that they gave him

[–] Nicest-Turkish-Guy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Thanks for VAR technology. Imagine if that was penalty lmfao

[–] turkishgamer@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Thats not a penalty

[–] PositiveDuck@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lmao if we get bailed out by a last minute penalty

[–] ssgtgriggs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

the handball rule really needs some serious reform. Nobody can tell what is and isn't a handball anymore

[–] Evil_Henchmen@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago
[–] Rigelmeister@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

NO ERA PENAL, come on

[–] 10-10-2022@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How the hell did the referee even consider that a handball in the first place.

VAR saved the day.

[–] ssgtgriggs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Respect to Modric for playing 90 minutes at 38 years. One of the most likable and honorable players of his generation.

[–] laki1986@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Bit he wasn’t really good today and honestly he hasn’t been our best player for a while now.

[–] Chiswell123@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Thanks, I missed that it was originally called a penalty.

[–] PositiveDuck@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yeah, var did its job and bailed taylor out of a wrong (understandable but still) decision.

[–] detour59@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Good shit, props to Montella and nearly all of the guys. Not easy to win against Croatia, never mind an away game.

[–] ssgtgriggs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

fucking legit respect

[–] CR7_LM10@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Now we are playing hoofball fucking embarrassing

[–] Artistic-Handle5018@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And we are back to before 2018 Croatia

[–] minivatreni@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Gotta say, we should learn to score. We're lucky the final score was 1-0 given how shit we played. Most croats in this sub are not making excuses for this loss though

I agree with that but at the same time we should start giving more chances to younger players. He also lost his starting position in Real which is normal since he is already 38.

[–] RareStankAss@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You're not wrong but it's also Latvia
