Imagine being a Portugal fan then - you're celebrating getting a penalty and then a couple of minutes later the other team are down the end equalising with their own penalty instead...
Everyone will say "VAR is shit" but that's the refs fault not VAR. If it had been a penalty and he'd gone back, checked it and awarded it then no one would have an issue, but to award that penalty is an absolute joke. I still can't believe how you can see a dozen replays and give it. It was clear after 1 replay that it was no way a foul.

Exactly my point. Doesn’t matter if you give them the best replays in the world a shit ref will still get it wrong. Laughable really.
Am I missing something here? I thought the attacking player tripped himself up because he was accidentally clipped by the defender who was running too close to the attacker without ensuring he did not impeded the stride of the attacker. It was completely accidental but still a penalty because it is the defender’s responsibility to ensure he does not impede the attaker’s normal stride.
That's why I find it so hard to separate Messi and Ronaldo
Messi to me is the slightly better player, BUT Ronaldo has done it in 4 countries and has scored more international goals and done it for a far weaker football nation than Argentina
Fuck sake I’m out there from today, really can’t be fucked it kicking off
Avoid standing in a square with thousand of people and you will always avoid trouble. Try and find an area which isn’t full with England flags and you will be fine.
Kicking off a bit over there having seen a few videos
Embarrassing
this one was always going to have trouble written all over it, ease of tickets ( general sale - no sort of membership required ) a week in the nigh on guaranteed sun, as an England away member i picked Prague instead of this one as the nobhead factor would be too high, i was in marseille for the shenanigans by the port, what does piss me off is the younguns that throw bottles at police run off and leave innocent fans to take a beating ( which is what usually happens having experienced it 1st hand ) - whilst they shouldn't have to just stop all shops in the local vicinity stop selling glass bottles to english fans would stop a lot of it.

Saying that any ref that thinks that was a penalty (after 10+ slow mo replays) shouldn’t be near top level football.
Never a pen
That's more than Shearer and Rooney combined got for us!

However, you’re incorrect about the ‘No debate’ bit, because people continue to debate this.
