It’s every decision now too. Footballs done if that’s a foul. Saw it with United at Bayern for the penalty. Absolutely brainless officiating

Spain have been awful. Any team organised will knock them straight out of the Euros next summer.

When Morata is your captain you know your in deep deep shit and decline

Spain are too big a fish not to be in the Euros which is the only way I’m reading a number of these bizarre decisions.

That foul decision is one of the worst I've ever seen. Stick VAR in the bin. It looks for ways to disallow goals. McTominay's goal would have gone down in Scottish football history. I'm not even Scottish and I'm fuming

Morata is to close to the keeper there, should be ruled out. He's within at least 6 yards of him. Can't be having that Ref

John Mcginn is so bad , no matter how many he scores for Scotland, so loose and sloppy at all times. Second touch usually a tackle. His engine gets him into good positions and that's about it. Headless chicken the rest of the time


Edit.
Seeing UEFA now saying the goal was offside

It was disallowed for an offside.
Absout 20 mins later. They still haven't shown any definite images showing that.

Still don't understand how you get yourself offside from a freekick thats about a yard from the line.

Ref came to the screen for the decision too. They don’t do that for offsides unless I’m mistaken?

Usually only for a foul. The lads draw the lines and make the call on offsides.

This ref looked at the screen for a brief second and made his decision, no mention of offside at all.

Winds me up that players get booked for losing it with refs of this level of incompetence. How dare they question their magnificence

Oh Hickey. Fecking hell.

I'm not even Scottish and this is up there with one of the most annoying and unjust losses I've seen in quite some time.

Sick of being in group with Spain every year. Cheating cnuts get pisstake decisions in every game. This wasn't a pen a few months back:


And this is a 'foul':

I've not seen the goal but they do for subjective offsides. Subjective offside being where there's interference, rather than someone who played the ball being offside.

I'm English and would love to see Scotland at the Euros. Think they will still get there. Just doesn't bode well for the level of refereering we will see.

Yeah they did for the 1-1 from Atletico against us last week as well.

Scotland should've started Che Adams, been far more lively since he came on.

Would've been a very interesting game if Spain had to come from behind, they were always in control at 0-0.

There should be a law against men over a certain age wearing bright white trainers with a suit. That Spain manager looks like a twat.

Laporte with a far greater shove on Adams than the foul given for the McT goal, as much as they are retconning their decision as offside.

Ok that makes sense. Thing is none of the Spanish players complained, not least the keeper. It’s another example of VAR ramming a shite decision into a game.

The refs/VAR officials are so out of touch with the sport.
