Watched the USA game last night got me thinking? If hibs played that side what would the score be? I reckon it’d be quite close

That can't be a serious question surely?

[Sylar]

France with all of the ball but unable to convert any of their chances yet.

Norway look dreadful.

Counter attack - it’s on 👍

[Sir David Gray]

Comical own goal from France.

1-1.

[Sylar]

That's a ****ing disgraceful penalty award by VAR. NEVER a penalty.

[LaMotta]

Var penalty for France. Horrendous decision!

[cabbageandribs1875]

Amazingly the commentators agreed with the ref. Astonishingly clueless.

[Hibby Bairn]

I’ve switched off in disgust. Was quite enjoying the game as well. Abysmal decision.

[poolman]

What was that dozy mare of a ref looking at to give a penalty

I'm sitting here questioning whether it's just me that's missing something.

If this is what VAR is going to add to the game, I'm less keen on seeing it implemented. It SHOULD eradicate injustice, not perpetrate it.

[Ricky Bobby]

If this is where VAR is taking the game we dont want it. Absolutely ridiculous decision.

stokesy's on fire sung all around the world now

[MWHIBBIES]

VAR doesn't make decisions, the ref does after watching a video. Nothing to do with VAR

[Sir David Gray]

I thought it was a penalty.

If that had been in the middle of the park, it would be a free kick.

I think that by the letter of the law you are right.

An argument could certainly be made that "excessive force" was used.

We're used to rules that allowed you to follow through and hammer a player as long as you got the ball. You can't really do that any more.

I thought it was soft and personally probably wouldn't have given it.

VAR here isn't the problem - it allowed the ref to have a good look at it. It's not VAR's fault if folk disagree with the ref's decision.

I wonder if refs feel more inclined to give a decision that is referred to VAR? You don't often see them view something and then say "nah".

I have to say I enjoyed tonight's match better than Belgium v Scotland. It was exciting.

Watching the Belgians camped in our half and poking it about wasn't great viewing.
In fact, this World Cup is restoring my faith in football as entertainment.

Aye but against the French lassie for jumping in two-footed - which the ref did not appear to be shown on her screen, just repeats of the accidental contact on the natural follow through which was after contact with the ball. There was no excessive force either. In fact you see her trying to pull out of it. Shocker of a decision.

Correct. It was a pen. The old they got the ball excuse doesn't wash anymore. It was a tackle out of control and reckless. Mind you the other player went in with two feet.

Can't belive anyone seriously thinks that should be a penalty.

Wind up material I am assuming. We all know we would lose that game.
