Literally the worst use or VAR I have ever seen, absolutely ridiculous
A studs up challenge is dangerous play and is a foul and a booking. The 'obvious error' was thinking it was a clean clash of feet rather than a studs up one.
Studs up isn't mentioned in the laws....was it careless or reckless? Obviously not
Assume you've never played the game?
I've only played Sunday league level and even there a studs up challenge is dangerous and falls under the definition of reckless.
I referee.....VaR is re-refereeing the game instead of intervening in clear and obvious errors. Show me the law that says you can't put your studs up.
Do you know who else referees? The referee tonight, and he gave a penalty. I bet he’s a better ref than you.
Only after he was told to go and look at the monitor by VAR.

To offer a neutral view. Spanish TV called it as a penalty immediately and never wavered - once it went to VAR they said it was going to be given. You lot need to be a bit more one-eyed!
Penalty is farcical, but about time England got a dodgy decision in a big game.
I am concerned that the Dutch will mix it up at Half Time and Southgate won't react. It's also a worry that we keep getting caught man for man on the break. Someone else has got to drop in and give us that extra cover
It would give England so much balance on the left. Trippier works so hard but everyone and their Auntie knows he has no left foot. He tried to cross one ball with his left and it went to the keeper.
Think on your feet Gareth and get Shaw on at least by 60 minutes.
i think we have been brilliant. The dutch have been really poor - they have played a bit like how we played in the previous games imo
The scores 1-1 and they are well capable of scoring again despite the fact we are bossing the midfield.
Yeah? That's what I meant - they HAVE been poor. But have a goal in them despite the midfield being bossed by the opposition. A bit like us in the last few games??
Hmm not sure if I like it to be honest, feels too early
Then again we're not losing one of our three stoppages to make subs by making it at HT... Worst case scenario we can swap him for Eze with our sixth sub in ET
I know that was said in jest, but in reality its karma for Lampard's "goal" against the Germans in 2010. That incident was the catalyst for VAR being introduced.

“But they’re never given!” is what I’ve seen a lot online already…
The above argument has some weight. But it should be treated as the foul that it is - anywhere on the pitch it’s an easy free kick and yellow card.
It’s rarely given because the punishment of a penalty feels harsh because it didn’t prevent the attacker getting a shot off.
It’s the same as these modern handball rules - a penalty feels too harsh a punishment for whatever benefit the attacker missed out on.

14 years later & we get retribution.
Prolly just easier and quicker to say what Trev said

Madness we took him if we knew he wouldn't be fit for even the semi final.
Would like to see a bit more from Rice and Jude but otherwise very good.

So poor from Rice to give them the goal.
