I thought Gavi had discomfort a couple of days ago, why did he end up playing the full 90 😅

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

Greater Catalonia getting the refs help with that win.

[–] CNF1G@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Not a bad performance considering we were missing Tierney who is IMO so vital to the system we play.

Now time to hope Spain can beat Norway so we qualify.. 😉

[–] jaymiller999@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Frustrating game. Could've easily got something out of that. Gonnae at least do us a favour and beat Norway on Sunday Spain

It was disallowed for offside not for a foul! 100% correct decision and anyone with two eyes will agree

It's unbelievable how this forum can just make up narratives and run with them lol

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

It was given for a foul, not offside. Do you have donkey brains?

Haven’t watched a game that corrupt since South Korea in 2002.

/u/MarcoRuss shared both Spanish goal replays, but unfortunately missed the moment of the match. More crimes against Scotland swept conveniently under the rug.

[–] jfk9514@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I now understand why people hate VAR. After the Celtic game last week and now this, I’m not sure if I will ever celebrate a goal again.

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

I'm also

[–] bazte3@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How did Sancet play?

[–] RN2FL9@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The rules are just a little confusing. At the end of the interference/impeding rule it says to call it as a foul. So it's both offside and a foul.

if the player moves into the way of an opponent and impedes the opponent’s progress (e.g. blocks the opponent), the offence should be penalised under Law 12

[–] penguin62@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Because the keeper isn't even attempting a save. You can't interfere with play if a play isn't being made.

[–] ImprovementAny1052@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

scots, the only people that act more miserable than english

[–] Alive-Ad-4164@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Morata is him

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

I'd be upset if I was Scotland. Not because of incorrect decisions but because the referees made a mess of the call and the procedure.

[–] JugonEx@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

The poor little babies of Scotland can't do nothing but complain when they lose. Where is the fun jokes now, my english fellows?

Or do you need permission from the queen/king of England to joke?

Good lord.

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

That certainly is a take you have there.

[–] Public-Fisherman-205@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Lmao

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

South France can only win by buying referees

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

They want Spain and Haaland there.

Absolutely shocking refereeing performance. Indefensibly biased.

Lmao why would I cry. It was just so funny after that headline yesterday.

[–] JackoN360@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If I had a penny for every time a Spanish team benefited from a dodgy referee performance I would have several pennies

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

Gay insults from a supposedly progressive country, shame..

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

Dodgy ref

[–] OneBall22Players@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Since when is standing infront a GK in offside position not interfering with play?
