Genie Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Ref should have booked that pathetic dive, especially as he turned back appealing for the penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 So according the the Swedish commentators the Ref was alerted by VAR but chose not to watch for a handball. Is that how it works in this tournament? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not overall in terms of quality in numbers but individually I'm always impressed by the high profile ones. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Got that handball right too, body shape and arm position was completely natural Should have booked the Turkish striker for diving but other than that great half from the ref, 5 fouls all game, letting it flow and is fair for both teams 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lichfield Dean Posted June 11, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted June 11, 2021 By the standards of the Premier League that handball shout would probably have been a pen. As was the earlier shout when the Italian player came together with the Turkish player just inside the penalty area. If those aren't being given, we may find it quite hard in our games if we are expecting to try and win our games by penalties like in the last world cup!

VillaAlex Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Italy are very well coached, I love their movement and width from the fullbacks. Turkey keepers kicking is infuriating me. Chiellini, Insigne, Barella and Spinnazola have been great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that how it works in this tournament? Yes, VAR ref signals down "you might want to take another look at that" the ref can then say yes or no but its his decision How it should be Like I said in the VAR thread it's PGMOL that are **** it up not VAR, what just happened is how I remember the world cup being 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YLN Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Insigne is great. I've never seen him play before. He looks like he wants the ball all the time and can play im tight spaces. Like Grealish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think the ref should have checked that last handball thou. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, if he thinks he saw it perfectly 1st time at real speed and then doesn't want 6 angles slowed down confusing him and putting it in to a grey area then just stick with the original decision The main thing is that he already knows if he saw it and what he saw and how he's already interpreted it VAR is for stuff he didn't see or didn't see properly Edited June 11, 2021 by villa4europe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Zen Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I love watching this. Italy’s pressing is fun to watch, and VAR is being used right. I think the handball shout had remit, but not obvious enough to make a big deal out of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
