Exiled AusJag Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 I find it really difficult to believe that in a major international tournament like this that 5th and 6th officials aren't used. If they had, then there would never had been an issue with the Peru "goal". It would have been picked up by the official on the goal line, a yellow card issued and a free kick to Brazil. Decision made, no controversy, and the game would just have continued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChewinGumMacaroonBaaaz Posted June 14, 2016 Report Share Posted June 14, 2016 I dunno mate... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/36450646 ...45secs in, Skrtel on Williams..... seems the FIFA scandal has maybe led to the Specsavers account being cancelled for goal-line officials. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banderas Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 woohooo , my 3 tickets for the semi final have just soared in price . must be an Argentina versus the USA. The US have just beat Ecuador, am not sure they will survive against Argentina without being truly schooled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banderas Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 on the road home after the semi final at NRG , as suspected the USA were schooled and that wee guy with the number 10 on his jersey for Argentina would be a good signing for us, if he didnt have Tax problems . last time I seen someone like that was Hampden June 1979 , funny enough he was number 10 and Argentinian as well , a little bit more direct than this one, but turned out noah a bad wee player. Our Roughy got the honour of letting in the numbers 10's first international goal as for the current No 10 his left peg is as sublime as the originals : the free kick he scored from was just audacious , over the wall no! , round the wall to the left no , He picked out the postage stamp corner on the goalkeepers side and put it there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDcjcLL22f8 The USA were honest triers but that was all they were , Argentina would seem to have at least another 3 gears , but am not sure they will handle Chile with the same ease if Chile beat Columbia and get to the final . For sheer work rate and constant get after them Chile crucified Mexico and ended up with 7 going on 11 or 12 goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
