Day 7: Portugal vs Morocco, Uruguay vs Saudi Arabia and Iran vs Spain

[kouroux]

We need a replay on them!!

 

[gormless]

Correct, ever been that dude on the dance floor where a girl waves/looks in your direction and you make your move and it turns out it's actually the dude behind you she's after? exact same thing.

Yeah but thankfully never in front of millions of worldwide viewers

 

[duffer]

Yeah, flag went straight up. EVen with no VAR that would not have stood.

 

[narnar]

Nope the flag stayed down.

Flag went up

 

[Josep Dowling]

On the bright side it may discourage extravagant celebrations. Imagine Griezman doing his Drake dance and having his goal disallowed a 30 seconds later.

I would love to see that, especially in the final.

 

[OutOfTowner]

When did Iran decide to actually be half decent?

It was a rhetorical question, you don't actually need to answer it.

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

Not the same keeper for Spain is he our Dave?

 

[dumbo]

A Persian tragedy worthy of Aeschylus right there.

 

[horsechoker]

They prayed for a goal that never was, absolutely haram

Shame the goal was dishalaled

 

[red4ever 79]

VAR is destroying football. Taking all of the fun, controversy and things to debate about, out of the game

 

[Nikhil]

Iran's attack being squeezed out like Xerxes at Thermopylae

What is it with you and your historical analogies? Cleopatra, Mark Antony.

I'd like to see that.

 

[barros]

Replays showed the linesman raise it.

[Ishdalar]

I'd love to see a recap edited by memri tv

It wasn’t even VAR that did that. The flag went straight up. They just used VAR to check it.

 

[Trophy Room]

De Gea Spanish Voodoo

 

[kouroux]

@dumbo your posts are funny

 

[fallengt]

Lineman had his flag up

Lol, all this happened without VAR.

 

[Aboutreika18]

How did that stay out.

 

[kouroux]

No, we're still discussing penalties not given, time-wasting, cheating and diving.

 

[Nucks]

What is it with you and your historical analogies? Cleopatra, Mark Antony.

Does he realize that the Persians won and killed all the Greeks? So is he anticipating this will end about 90-1 for Iran?

Would have been slaughtered for that goal. VAR to the rescue.

 

[Offside]

How did that not go in

 

[kouroux]

Unreal block there on Pique

 

[Bole Top]

I thought they were kicking the shit out of that Iranian defender.

 

[BeforeKeanetherewasRobson]

Costa looked a bit disappointed that he caught a bit of the ball when he was trying to kick the player.

 

[Aboutreika18]

Honestly don't think Iniesta is good enough to start for Spain these days.

 

[Florida Man]

What the feck was that Looked like little kids kicking at each other

 

[justboy68]

What a great goalline scramble

 

[red4ever 79]

no, it is not

Yes. It is

 

[Precaution]

Iran need to bring on Xerxes, Almost 300 Level like defending here.

 

[barros]

Costa looked a bit disappointed that he caught a bit of the ball when he was trying to kick the player.

If that was Pepe people would die

 

[OutOfTowner]

For a minute there it turned into a rugby maul between the posts.
