Wonder if they need to alter the rule to allow for a review after end of game as no dead ball time to allow VAR team to operate. A VAR check was done. I do note the point about the full time whistle.

Stephen Muddie Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Losing interest in this tournament now. Not becuase it's girls, just because it's been shite viewing watching all the daft decisions and even with VAR which we all wanted to work, it's not made it any clearer or transparent for teams and fans. So much additional time and boring lulls. Wrong calls, inconsistency, and no shortage of embarrassing play. Will still watch games I guess but the whole handling of the tournament by FIFA has done the ladies game a dis-service IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegas-voss Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 That USA penalty surely they had better angles than that what was shown.How the **** will VAR ever work in Scotland we seem to have about 2 cameras at most matches ? If it's not clear cut then pens should not be given.If it takes 5 mins for a penalty to be called a pen then they clearly have strong doubts.

DesertDawg Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 John, You make some really good points but the problem here has been the total lack of quality training of the referees and, probably, the VAR reviewers too. FIFA has definitely got that wrong, especially with the amount of time taken to reach a decision. I'll get crucified for this but that's a female thing that complicates VAR too. I have watched VAR in MLS for a year and a half now and it works really well but the league spent a lot of money on the equipment and training of the officials. Believe me, I've officiated at a lot of school games and this is very different. Of course, U.S. fans are accustomed to video officials in baseball, basketball and hockey so it is, yo a certain extent, a different world. What do you think of this one?

Hmmm At what point does the jostling to get to the ball become a shove and a foul...basically when the defender made the pushing motion. probably just outside the box where it was given. Would be raging if we we never got the pen though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malinga the Swinga Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 7 European teams and USA get to quarter finals.
