    Think that law will be changed before the start of next season.

    How has the ref blown so early, 4 minutes added on and it took about 5 minutes with the whole penalty and being retaken

    Remarkable for Argentina

    If Cameroon v New Zealand and Chile v Thailand end in draws then they're through to the next round

    Keepers just aren't prepared for this VAR rule. It's making penalties more or less unsaveable

    That new penalty rule is awful. Puts the keeper at such a disadvantage. What happened to injury time too?

    That's farcical in Scotland game. VAR has to be stopped

    I think refs are not up to time keeping and reffing- I have said this for a while. In terms of penalties, there was always common sense applied and you can tell if keeper was being ridiculous or not.

    I don't know if it was deliberate, but effectively this tournament is being used as a guinea pig for the rule changes

    No it really does not.

    A penalty is supposed to be 12 yards away any less gives the keeper the advantage.

    I think the new rule is brilliant, keepers should remain on the line

    Know it wont always be the fault of the Goalkeeper but the answer is simple - Dont give away a penalty!!

    Stay on your feet, keep your arms down, dont do anything stupid

    It was a definite penalty. Even if she got a touch on the ball  she did not disposes the attacker and then wiped her out.

    Nobody is disputing that it was a penalty. The rest of it though - awful. Especially blowing for time six minutes early

    I must say White looks very sharp but Steph Houghton was player of the match for me.

    Refereeing in the Scottish game was appalling

    I thought the old rule meant that 'keepers had to stay on the line anyway (now they just need to have one foot), just referees were terrible at enforcing it

    Isnt it now that they've got to stand still and not move to put the taker off like we've seen in the past

    Goalkeepers invariably have both feet off the line - as you say they've not prepared for this VAR rule. The booking seems OTT - keeper could easily end up being red carded.

    Some of the TV pundits seem to be suggesting the Scottish player might have touched the ball and therefore it might not be a penalty.

    VAR ffs!

    No problem with VAR.
    The powers that be decided before this competition started to get penalties retaken if keepers move off their lines.

    Could be carnage next season all over the football leagues where VAR is used unless this is just a trial ?

    She did move off her line. That can't be argued. But a lot of time was lost in the whole incident from it being reviewed to retaken and that was unfair on both teams.

    It really does. The new rules state the keeper can't be moving. How can a keeper get momentum to get across if they are not allowed to move? 

    Coupled with VAR means the slightest movement off the line is punished. Football as we know it will be ruined imo by microanalysis in slow motion

    Or don't let a 3 goal lead slip in this case!

    If you think clear and obvious it was a split second - millimetre decision between her leaving the line and the ball being kicked - it was intended to be instaenous - makes it harder for keeper as they have to accurately predict kickers run that doesn't have to be consistent

    Bit of common sense has to be used in these VAR scenarios- used in the penalty decision was fair game but in the second decision you are expecting a robotic response from keeper

    Scotland have some good players but they are a front foot team, defensively they are not so good. They need a manager who understands that or some better defensive players.

    Can’t wait for the first penalty shootout under these VAR rules. It will never end.
  • MuttleyCAFC

    To be fair, had the keeper not gone off her line, she would have still saved that pen. It was hit straight at her.

    No one to blame but ourselves throwing away a three goal lead BUT, the game was stopped on 86 minutes to check VAR, the second penalty went in after 93 then the final whistle went on 95.

    fucking ridiculous

    It was a crap penalty. She could have stayed behind the line and saved it. The retake was crap as well.

    That goal keepers have to be on or behind their line? Been the law for 100 years hasn’t it?
