The new footy thread

It looks close on tv but for the linesmen on the sideline it’s pretty clearly not off.

And then the 4th referee in the VAR booth has to radio down if he/she sees something off.

It’s a good system.

Thanks, I didn’t realize there was a 4th official upstairs radioing down. I assumed it fell on the field official

Man, Bruno Fernandes just doesn’t work in this lineup. I know Fernando wants to keep Sanches on the bench as a super sub but he better fits this formation.

I don’t watch as much as you guys do but wasn’t that at least close enough to being offside that VAR should have taken a look at least or am I not understanding the rule?

Which part looked contentious to you? On the first pass, jota was onside (pretty clearly on the replay). Ronaldo was in an offside position there but the ball wasnt going to him.

Dang.

I had no idea you could be in an offside position if the ball wasn’t passed to you. Wasn’t clear on the rule.

Well, good thing France drew.

Gnabry so close to making it 3-1

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

That is not the sub, Fernando. Wtf are you doing?

Best German word in my opinion.

Semedo getting owned by Gosens. They’re missing Cancelo so much.

 

[ChiSoxFan]

Wow. Match far from over but Germany needed this big time, especially after Hungary got that point against France.

My goodness, that looked very easy.

Portuguese fans can take their shirts off now and put on the brazil ones

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Portugal may have broken the French voodoo over them 5 years ago but Germany still owns their asses.

Qualification out of the group not looking too likely now.

Anyway, I’ll be watching the US Open lol
